RE: SOTD - December 2023 - Anchovie666 - 12-19-2023 Tuesday Morning Tonsure Test I was hoping for Proof of Concept - would a modified (taped up) blade work in a 120 year old razor. What I got was a delightful shave. It worked well and I learned a few things I can use when I modify another blade. Gorilla Tape is awesome for a job like this. Could not ask for a better result for the first time.

RE: SOTD - December 2023 - Anchovie666 - 12-20-2023 Wednesday Morning Shaving Extravaganza Third use on the Feather Blade and it was a very good shave. Not the smoothest blade right from the start but it has been better as it ages out. Still very efficient and that is what counts.
