Ralf Aust 5/8.

Still learning the ropes. Made two passes on my cheeks - ear to corner of mouth - along the jawlines and left side of my neck. My right neck has too much scarring from cancer surgery (neck dissection) for the SR. The shaves with the SR are getting better, but I still need to follow up with the DE.

Seeing the crown GR stamp can tell you that the razor was made around 1820~1830.
The WOOTZ pattern appeared in the crucible steel production process of CAST STEEL.
Although there are rust pits on the surface of the knife, the WOOTZ pattern can still be seen.
