Today everything just worked beautifully - solid CCS on only 2 passes with minimal irritation. This is definitely a combo that I could use for a month, though don’t know that this will happen!

For those like me that are not willing to cough up the bucks for a Fili 14 (at least not yet), Fili 13 is a darn fine razor at a much lower price point on the bay.

Nice! My Rosette is one of my favorite razors.

Nice! My Rosette is one of my favorite razors.

Thanks, if you notice this blade is shorter than usual but the steel is very dense. So even though it covers less real estate per stroke, it does seem stronger the way it mows down the whiskers. Did that make any sense? Lol

Today's shave with this razor was very good and enjoyable. It was very smooth and comfortable in 3passes without any issues at all and the results are getting better...dfs+, some ccs/sas. Love the razor's feel & heft.

C.V.H No 140 for the Saturday morning shave, soap and balm were ABC, and the brush a small Rooney beehive.

I have some of the new ABC hard soap on the way, and it will have to be very good indeed to meet or exceed the last version.

Is the MK 32 a 5/8 or an 6/8? I see them advertised as 5/8 some places. I have been considering getting one, but my preferred size is 6/8.

a 32 is a 6/8

Don't get me started about Puma straight razors, Puma, Henckels and Dorko are my favourite vintage Solingen razor brands. This half hollow dark beauty is my razor of the week.

Herder 49. At some point in the past I said I didn't like big razors with very thin grinds. Clearly I was wrong because I'm in love with this one.

Le MK 32 est-il un 5/8 ou un 6/8 ? Je les vois annoncés comme 5/8 à certains endroits. J'envisage d'en acheter un, mais ma taille préférée est le 6/8.

6/8 a the heel and 13/16 at the point
