Wonderful morning shave, yet again with 20.1. I enjoyed my series of Seaforth! shaves (Sorry SSL, you felt too summery this time around) this week.
When did this Böker show up in your collection? Is it a new addition?
I bought a bit over a year ago, but I only honed it during this year's TabOktoberfest, and wrote this little write-up because I think it's an interesting razor.
I then promptly busted its pristine scales and luckily, Ralf Aust makes scales of almost the same size and shape. I posted the rescale operation here.
It's just a regular square point German hollow ground, but I enjoy it more than most of my other straights
I commented on both posts, so as you can see, my memory is like Swiss cheese ;-) The French point 6/8 Böker with the abalone scales is the one I remember.
I'm sure you'd have remembered it if the pic showed had a closeup of the ship :)
That’s very gracious of you. I’m sticking with the Swiss cheese analogy. My memory is good where there aren’t holes :)
Sticking to the analogy, then. Most Swiss cheeses don't have holes, so there's that😄

You need to factor in the American POV 😉
Oh, I'm familiar with the expression, I'm just being everyone's favourite: a know-it-all 😅
FdF++
It took me a few uses to appreciate it, and now I can't remember why I didn't like it at first.
