Beautiful razor. I did not know he made handles I guess.
I make a few here and there. That was one of the few I made for myself and was one of my absolute favorites. I gifted it to mayer57619 for being so generous in letting me borrow several razors for a test drive.
I am sure that at one time I retained this information. I am forgetful at times these days.
Happy shaves to ya!

Williams Wednesday's Shave
![[Image: zcws.jpg]](https://i.postimg.cc/905gwjZc/zcws.jpg)
Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Soap
Jayaruh #403 Synthetic
King Cobra
Feather Professional
CWR
Aqua Velva Musk
The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #403 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the King Cobra razor with a Feather Professional blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I had a super comfortable shave with the Henckels Rapides today. Well once I switched out the Pal blue carbon I started with for a 5th use Gem SS PTFE. I know some people love the carbon blades but they just don't do it for me.
I'm continuing to use the Dragon's Blood soap a friend made me. The lather was better today. I used the Puck directly on wet skin an then face lathered. I also experimented a little with making a bowl lather with the soap and which hazel instead of water. The results were interesting but that would get expensive to do often.
