Good thing the big container is in the pic, otherwise this one is pretty enough to accuse Dave of photoshop fakery. Hope the reasons pass and sleep, even if on the ground, comes.

VERY cold morning and 2 trips to lug back the stuff to the house after breaking camp. Got a quick 2 pass shave just now since I'l be shaving in the morning again. Hopefully my truck will be done sometime Monday so I can at least do my floor account Monday evening. Guess I'll find out on Monday.......... Hope all in the Cadre have a stupendous day !!!

Got to try a razor I'm hunting for my collection. Thanks KJ @Spider for the loan to play with. It kinda reminded me of the Yuma razor while shaving. You feel the blade but is a smooooth shave. Not as efficient as the Yuma for me but maybe I can dial the angle in after some more uses. An enjoyable shave that I kept all old school to match the razor. Video uploading in the VLOG section. Have a great day Cadre !!

I was wondering what that razor was. It looks a little menacing to me, but cool at the same time. Have a stupid good day, Dave.
 
VERY interesting razor! Just when you thought you have seen it all...KJ pulls out another one! Great Shave today Dave!
 
I'm afraid you've fallen into the "Gotta have one of everything" mode of vintage razors.

Glad you got in some camping time, but it's a bummer it got interrupted in the middle. That's a lot of work hauling everything (including the kitchen sink) back and forth.

Thanks Dave. We didn't haul it back when rain came. Just left it and returned to it, including the sink ;)
 
That razor looks almost like a medieval torture device! So the blade is held by the fingers agains the slots?
