u/Mammoth_Don I pay my respects to you, sir. That's my first try to enter $MammothMafia24 ranks.

Second AA taming hogs, the first was an unbleached Zenith that became a star. For this AA, I'm using an old Ever-Ready 200 handle(red one) with a GDMG Black Boar, which when wet smells awful, The stiffness is noticeable and the tips are quite smooth except for some pricky bristles. u/Eldrorm $RawHoggin

The beautiful heavy blade of the Friodur 14 manufactured for the Japanese market, is a superb shaver, surpassing many of it carbon steel sisters. I agree with u/djundjila the have bad reputation. I think it's because they're more tricky to hone than carbon ones due to its hardness. Anyone who dislikes and disparages stainless steel razors is because he has never tried a properly sharpened one. $FriodomRiders for rust free!

Tomorrow I'll talk about the nice edge I have put in the Friodur today, one of the best I remember. So good that I almost made a bad cut in the moustache area.
