Lots of great sightseeing today. Here's my morning's contribution. Simple and austere.
I've had my eye on a couple framebacks pretty similar to yours. You aren't making it easy to restrain myself, so... thanks for that!
I believe the expression is a Winter Wonderland.View attachment 891776 Such a thoughtful invitation. I shoveled and scraped over two hundred inches of snow each year for five years so I really must decline.

That was the drawing made of me when I said god bye to this razor. I wish I had more of them to spare, but somehow they've become very hard to come by the last years.The flagship of my collection, straight from the white bear himself. The soap I used even has a scetch of Arne enjoying an adult beverage.

Thanks for the warning!View attachment 891903
GD62. Did not like this one at all. My first GD bust. The $4 GD66 runs rings around this design disaster. The soap was a pleasant surprise. Not Shafmilch but decent.
This is my opinion only and others may love it BUT: the blade is too short, the razor is too light, the French point was distracting (I have a Boker with a Spanish point and have no problem with it),I found it awkward to hone and for some reason it seemed a bit harsh even though honed exactly same as my others. The harshness most likely had to do with my unfamiliarity with the razor. I m trying different GD’s to find a style of razor I like before I spend money on a more “refined” one. As of now, it looks like a round point 6/8 is in the lead - just a standard ole razor looking thing full hollow rather than extra full.Thanks for the warning!
What’s so bad about the W62?
