I was out of touch for most of yesterday. The shave was great! Not overly aggressive but you can feel the blade in this one all the time. I also love this handle. As near as I can find the Z was put on around 1903. SO that can help date this one as I donot see one just like it in Waits. I used VDH Select and a VDH brush. Really a nice shave with the Treet blade. and the video of course. Next up is a wedge blade in the beauty.

Sunday morning shave with the GEM and a GEM wedge blade was just awesome. I really feel a connection with a Wedge in here. The shave was smooth and very hi class. I am still loving this long wooden handle. I have one that is very close to the original that was made by jayaruh the feels as good on my 1890ish Kampfe. This razor has much the same feel to it. A very hi class shave indeed. As promised a video too...

Great Williams Wednesday shave with this one. I used a wedge again today on a 3 day growth. Fantastic shave. The vintage Williams is a treat with the big ole boar brush. My thought on this razor are like my thoughts on all the vintage tools. Just beautiful well built awesome shaving machines. This one is much more ornate then any of the ones that I own. It is a dream to use and veddy easy to boot. Proper angle and pressure is all it takes as we all know. Thanks to Joe for letting me run this one around the block a few times. And finally the video....

SOOOOOOO... I blew this up. I meant to have this one headed back home over a week ago and it did not happen. It is packaged up and will be going to the post office in just a bit. I had to get one last shave with it though. There is something special about a Wedge shave. So here it is one more for the road. And a final video. What a great shave.
