What straight did you use today? Now with PICTURES

Thank you I sure enjoy it.

 

Beautiful razor. Sadly no more dovos in my collection anymore but maybe I need to change that.

 

Thank you sir.

 

This evenings shave:
Frederick Reynolds "The Old English Razor"
Arko stick
Custom CRV Silvertip

Absolutely my favorite razor currently. BBS in three passes with 36 hours of growth.

 

Haven't used straights in well over a month (horrible I know).

Back to it today with this razor.

Beautiful razors and photos today...Thanks.

This one isn't beautiful but she still delivers a flat out perfect shave. W&B Celebrated Barbers Notch...

 

Bob L I like the way you think

 

Great razor. Looks like yours is either younger than mine or it is wearing newer scales. What I find surprising about this particular blade is its maneuverability. It's heavy and is pushing 7/8s. But it shaves my upper lip like a good, hollow ground 5/8s.

These are definitely keepers.

 

ya mine has new pants but the blade is just a delight to shave with. I like big blades an I can not lie

 

6/8 ivory le grelot.

 

5/8 Dovo Carre

Had a fantastic shave with this Solingen blade.I did refresh blade on a Charnley Forrest hone before the shave.

 

This morning's shave ...



Yesterday's little sister, Frederick Reynolds 11/16, near wedge
Maggard's Black and White synthetic
Arko stick for Arko August

If the other FR is my favorite, this one is a very close second.

 

Bourco 200 . This is actually a Dorko 200 (see the Dorko logo at the center of the blade) which was distributed in Middle East and Africa. 13/16
