Aluminum Hawk, V1 but I don't remember what make blade I'm using; probably a Feather. Got a PDG shave as expected.

To be vintage it must be older than me!
The last razor I bought was the next to last razor I will ever buy!

jar,

Exactly my experience with all six of my Valets.
I thought it was me.  I tried all ways of adjusting my angles. Nothing.
In addition to the Valet strop I even tried honing and then stropping. Nothing.
Even old Valet blades didn't work.
Neither did using a Razorpit sharpener. But it never worked on anything.
I AM PUZZLED.
