Whiterook, that is a lovely looking razor. Wonderful craftmanship (well, it IS Canadian!
). I notice that the blade sits very forward compared to other SE designs. The handle screw almost lines up with the rear of the blade, rather than more typically, on center. How does this impact the shave technique, or is there little impact? Thanks

Café Bustelo is good stuff. That's what we serve at the restaurant I work at.
