This W&B was my first nice straight razor, and it played a key role in my stumble that ended at the bottom of the straight razor rabbit hole. Still a great shave.
The big 30 mm silver tip feels like a fluffy warm lather pillow.
Luxurious. Just how I like my Sunday shaves.

I started searching for a W&B like that after seeing yours. I used mine a couple of days ago. Awesome piece of history.

There’s something soft-feeling about their steel that I really enjoy.

My W&B Fine India Steel has a bevel angle of ~17 degrees, is also a great shaver, and has that soft-feeling as well.

How are you guys measuring the bevel? Can you just lay it flat, set your phone on top and use one of those measurement apps?
