No it's a horrible razor! Send all Heljestrand razors back to the freezing cold pit of a country they all come from. Since they are all forget by hideous dwarfs working deep down under snow covered mountains, and only during blizzards, they can only be destroyed in the fire they were made in. Send them all to me and my seven six feet tall blonde and beautiful maids (of some reason they are all named Inga) . We'll see to it that the dwarves destroy all Heljestrands. But hurry by tomorrow the polar bears may have eaten the last of the dwarves...

O boy I must start taking my medication. You've got a very nice razor there.[emoji106]

Tim great looking Helje and a pretty good looking Koma also.

Thanks for the compliments; for some reason, I haven't given it the use it deserves.

Continuing with the Germans, a Wm. Elliot with the inaugural shave with my new brush. My attempts at an Arkansas edge are still a bit suspect. It didn't seem very sharp or smooth while shaving, but ended up quite close with no alum or AS bite. Not sure what to think about that.

I like my razor of that model so much that I'm on the hunt for a backup in case of that I'll drop and break it (God forbid). How do you find yours?

Yesterday was a Henkotsu and today was a Toyo

A test shave and a couple of glamor shots before this one gets shipped back to Captain Murphy. A nice coti edge, it wouldn't be prudent to irritate a man with his skill set.
