My LeGrelot 6/8 with Cella soft shave soap.
Dec 23, 2010 Thread starter #366 California Cajun Theirs-Issard Special Coffeur 1937 5/8" The razor I started with didn't respond to two honing jobs so I summoned the TI from the bullpen and it got the save. I guess the Swaty can't handle every situation...time to get the 4K/8K/12K out and get busy.

Dec 25, 2010 #380 ouch Stjynnkii membörd dummpsjterd 6/8 Le Grelot. It's a 6/8 the way a woman tells a clerk in a dress shop that she's a size 6. It's big, heavy, plodding, and ever so slightly unwieldy, but does it ever shave like a dream. Wonderful razor.
