Good day to all,
Here is the American Knife Co, Plymouth Hollow. A unique blade configuration and a great shaver. I can only speculate but I believe the groove is for lather to accumulate and re-distribute during the shave. That’s what happens anyway. The Ogallala Bay Rum Limes & Peppercorn is a nice scent, I try to help keep the $$ in the local community. Nebraska’s just next door and the Ogallala Aquifer runs all the way down to Texas. Have a great week.

Unfortunatly, this is my last shave with this razor. Due to needing money iI had to put this one on the Bay and the auction ends tomorrow morning. Nothing short of a spectacular shave. Two pass BBS but managed to sneak a third pass in just for the hell of it.
