That post was made in 2010. I might not have had a smart phone then. The mods merged two threads, one with pics and one without shortly thereafter. I haven't used the 3/8 since then. I think barbers used those smaller razors around the ears and neck.

For about the last year and a half I have rotated 7 5/8 Henkels Friodurs I bought NOS.

Very nice!
I haven't seen two Waterville's alike. Strikes me as one or two artistic guys, both with a short attention span.

I really like the setup. So far I haven't seen a Waterville that wasn't a beauty. Not too many of them still around though. I guess they never were that common since they only were produced for ten years.

New Year. That's an occasion that requires something special. To me this Le Grelot is special.

I hope that 2017 will be a very good year for all of You Gentlemen, those who post as well as the silent majority.

Thank you all for the kind comments and fantastic posts. I do hope for the return of [MENTION=26536]jlindy[/MENTION].

Thank you! I've only seen just a few myself, but yes all have had a touch of uniqueness and beauty.
