This post got me thinking so I pulled out my calipers and my trig calculator. I discovered a couple surprises...well one, anyway.

The spine thickness is 0.2 inches (give or take a few...

That is pronounced fra-gee-lay, and yes I think it is eye-tal-yun.

Yeah, I wanted that, but common sense told me I might like something easier for a daily shaver....plus I imagine I'll get a friend for this one in pearl or ivory with a spike at some point;)

OK...I really hate reviews of things that are 30 seconds out of the box, so please do not take this as a review...just some thoughts and impressions.

A little background on me first?

I have...

Seriously though, when I get home tonight, I'll do some photos and a 30 second video if warranted.

Had to share this pic though. I have received...

Tough luck pal...you are going to get a three part series of hour long installments of the box opening (facepalm)

Wait...what is this?

A box just arrived!

I think box opening videos are beyond stupid...but I might make a video anyway just to show it from a generous amount of vantages.

Still not here yet, but it is out for delivery!!!

Pretty fired up today!

My new Hart is on a truck somewhere rolling around town, and should be here soon!

The only problem is, I have not even handled it yet and I already have my next...

Thanks Lynn. I would like to get down there some time. I gotta slow down though. I have RAD in full bloom and cannot support this for very long;)

I'm sure I could learn a lot in a hurry talking to...

That is a great idea. I'll have to keep my ears open around here. I seem to have a knack for hobbies that no one around me plunges into as deeply as I do.

On the plus side, I usually manage to...

Not at all. I ordered one today;)

Well, I was all set to buy, and the sale ended at the place I was going to buy from (Doh!)

I guess I will use this as an opportunity to ponder the matter and hope a nice deal comes my way:D

Thanks. I am not sure I have an opinion on jumps, but everything I have used has them. It sort of makes sense to have a good grip on a wet razor;)

Shooter,

I agree with you and appreciate your thoughts. I hope this did not come off as a what to buy...because I am all to familiar with the ubiquitous answer, "it depends".

I was hoping to...

Bob,
Thanks. I consider my vintage razors to be fine razors. I like them very much (but they do need some slab work though).

I am not expecting a better shave from a new razor, but I hope I...

Thanks for the suggestions so far guys.

I actually have a few vintage razors already (4 to be honest...and I have shaved with 3 of them...the astute observer will realize I have only used one...

OK, so I am pretty new to straight shaving, but I really enjoy it:shrug:.

I am contemplating ordering a Hart razor.

My question (and I am probably asking the wrong group;)) is, "am I crazy to...
