    This was my first shave with this straight, which I found in Nesika Beach, Oregon at an estate sale for $5 while on my recent bike tour. I just got it back in hand today after sending if off to @gcgallant@sub.wetshaving.social for honing.

    The only other straight razor that I’ve used is the Moarteen, and this thing is significantly smaller and more nimble. It gave me great results from a three-pass shave, with only one small slice on my jawline from not minding the toe.

    Overall I’m happy with the edge and looking forward to spending more time with this razor.
