I bought a bit over a year ago, but I only honed it during this year’s TabOktoberfest, and wrote this little write-up because I think it’s an interesting razor.

I then promptly busted its pristine scales and luckily, Ralf Aust makes scales of almost the same size and shape. I posted the rescale operation here.

It’s just a regular square point German hollow ground, but I enjoy it more than most of my other straights

I commented on both posts, so as you can see, my memory is like Swiss cheese ;-) The French point 6/8 Böker with the abalone scales is the one I remember.

  I’m sure you’d have remembered it if the pic showed had a closeup of the ship :)

    That’s very gracious of you. I’m sticking with the Swiss cheese analogy. My memory is good where there aren’t holes :)

    Sticking to the analogy, then. Most Swiss cheeses don’t have holes, so there’s that😄
