Nice setup, Robert! I just took my SOTD pic and guess what I picked for my Sunday shave!?

Oh yeah...you bagged a 7 day Helje set?!! Heck, forget Mark...I will hound you for them, HAHAHAHA

Ok, I´ll have to take your word for it then Re the Helje set, it was only a 7 day of SE blades. I´ve been trying and get a complete set, in good nick for some time now and I´ll get there, eventually.

Custom Razor by Maximilian
The razor glided over my skin effortlessly and gently wiped the whiskers away. I was treated to a great effortless shave.

Amazing shave Jeff (sorry for the late comments). I love that you combined 2 passions for your photos. Enjoy your new Maxtum in good health my friend!

Glad you survived the night Grant. Get some rest buddy!

If I had to be left with one DE razor, at this moment in time, this would be it. It's that good.

Firstly, this is one EXCELLENT photo. If it is analogue, even better. I was going to buy one of these travelling shavers a little while ago, but didn't. Got a straight now. Probably need a DE too? I remember as a recruit, in the Australian army in the mid 80s being issued a DE razor as part of my kit. I think I was the only recruit in my platoon to actually use it. First time I touched it to my face it cut me. Thinking back now (25 years) I feel my desire to use this 'quaint' piece of equipment pre-empted my love of old, vintage stuff...even then...
