What's new

What straight did you use today? Now with PICTURES

Heljestrand MK 4 today. The razor has really turned into my favorite razor to shave with. Going to try and keep an eye out for them and buy another 1 or 2 of them if I can. Currently it has about 15 shaves or so on this coticule edge and still going strong.

All the razors in the Friodur series have the following in common:
  • They are very easy to shave with, the perfect choice for a first razor.
  • The quality is very high.
  • They are easy to hone.
If I was to try to find any flaw at all it would be that they are so practical that some might find them to be a bit boring lacking any kind of challenge.

Ok. I add it to my buy list. :)

That's a very fine razor, but I do miss the beautiful cat with the long fur.
That razor looks very interesting.

You wont regret buying one they are fantastic razors, everyone should have one in rotation...
As much as I usually like to contradict Ian, just out of spite, I must admit that he's right:001_tt2:. The best place to find a Friodur in good condition is most often Japanese eBay sellers.

Ok. I’v seen several friodur in Japanese eBay sellers because I was looking to buy a Japanese western razor, which I did and Im crossing my fingers for it to arrive safely. But I also know a European seller with similar goods as the Japanese.
Thank you

Polarbeard, here's a recent picture of that cat, with our other white fur ball. They're having a funny (to humans), cat style stand off. By the way, the name of the puss you like is Theta.

Since this is about straight razors, here's a shot of one of my two EAB's. Awesome shavers, and love the mackerel.

Rituals Samurai Shaving preshaving and postshaving cream
Dovo Bismark 6/8” carbon steel Dovo full hollow

Today I honed my Bismark twice and set a new bevel. One before starting shaving and rehoned before atg. I’v learned that I had to do very little pressure while honing and progressively less pressure. As a result a most confortáble two pass BBS shave and ... ª cut in my hear lobe [emoji101]
I’v just loved this shaving!
