Went with a “small” theme today.
The Spike gave a surprisingly good shave!
 
François Chaussière “Trophée - L’Espagnolette” - 13/16

The Swedish steel of these very old “Trophée” contains a high % of carbon. Ultra-dry storage is compulsory.
As a reward, they get a superb edge and deliver excellent shaves. Here, in an eggplant & black bakelite pair of shoes.

I have a few of those. As you say though, those things just want to rust, so mine are not in as pristine a shape as this splendid specimen. The feel of the metal si truly amazing though. My first Trophee l'Espagnolette truly surprised me.
