Sixteen years ago I won this razor from someone at one of the other shaving clubs. He made this razor.
They called this one the "World's most travelled razor!"
I carried it around the state of Oklahoma and took pictures with the razor in the foreground of the interesting locations.

Mammoth ivory TZ 7/8 damascus, Trumper's Almond (tallow), Simpson E3 Super, Trumper's Wild Fern. A superb, smooth shave with the razor gliding through two day stubble with no effort. No sting with the aftershave either.
