At least you got a reply Kevin.
I emailed them some time ago with no reply.
Perhaps they make missiles for North Korea.
If they don't release that information to the general public, why have Galco on the razor?

Are you pleased with its performance ?

Yes, pleased enough, I'm not saying it's the best soap I have in terms of performance but certainly not the worst

Yes the scent is outstanding and because of that I will forgive it for not being the best performing soap I have

I have not used a 1912 razor for a few months and today's shave was a bit of a mixed bag. The shave felt quite rough, a lot of tugging and it took 3 passes, however post shave I was feeling very smooth and no irritation. Maybe the blade needs more use? I have already popped in into my 1924 for tomorrow's shave to compare.

Quite possibly the best shave I've had. If I knew what I know now when I first started then I think I'd just have gone down the whole Meissner route. Quality products & great protection & post shave feel.

Lovely set up. Have you considered using the 1912 without a shim? Just a thought.
Loving the handle by the way.
What is it please?
Many thanks,
Wayne.

Lovely set up Shaun.
I have not had the pleasure of trying Meissner products yet so thanks for enabling me.

Thanks, I think I may well try this 1912 without a shim again, this is I believe quite a late model 1912 and the handle is original but is made of aluminium which I think was common with the later razors. It is very grippy and the razor is super light with this handle. I have some much older 1912 razors which are noticeably heavier.
