Hi again,

Just to say thanks to this community for the help with the Ever Ready 1912 boot sale find I posted the other day.

The blades arrived yesterday and I had a very nice shave with it this morning. A very close shave in fact, closer than my prior daily driver the Edwin Jagger DE89.

I also like the big feedback this razor has and how it reverberates down the handle. Feels serious!

Anyways, thanks to everyone who helped me find the right blades! Shave on!

Yeah, true!

Apart from the bit where you have to take the cardboard off the blade.
