This model is Hannah's Razor?

I'm on a waiting list at Tim Zowada. Smile

Navarrsky The blade is similar to Hannah's, just a touch wider. I'd loved to have picked that razor up as it is stunning.

Tim's work is well worth the wait. His Damascus blades are in the true Damascus style (650+ layers of steel) not like some "Damascus style" razors. I wish I could afford one of his "Tim-ahagane" razors. He picks the ore up from the beach himself. It gets no more detailed than that anywhere.

Had an excellent 3 pass near BBS shave this morning. This soap is legit! The scent is masculine and very nice. The Gem Feather Weight is the most mild SE razor I have used to date and it still did short work of my whiskers with a fresh Gem blade. This may be my favorite Gem razor. Future shaves will tell.

This was my second shave with the iKon shavecraft 101 that I got the other day from wingdo. Definitely more aggressive than the 25c that I've used exclusively until now, although still 'mild'.

This is the longest that my face has remained smooth after a shave. I'm excited to get my technique dialed in with this razor.

The L & L Grooming soap was great all around. Lathered up easily, lasted for three passes and smelled wonderful. I'm a sucker for coconut and fruit scents.

I made three complete passes with this Koeller Paramount, and still needed to do quite a bit of touch up with the Futur. I think I have to find the angle for this one - do different straights need different angles?  The lather was great  and there were only a couple small weepers. It was a comfortable shave even with the weepers.

Good stretching of the skin is the key for a good shave with a straight.
