Hey Dave! I found out that with the models that you just slide a blade sideways into cap, you don't even have to remove the spine. I just lay blade edge into stoppers, press blade down with spine laying in between the two bars (the spot where the strop would be threaded through). Then I just tighten up! It works for me. The old Autostrops are terrific razors ! They are plentiful and low cost still! Thanks for reviewing yours! JimG
Nice shave Dave! It is great when things go smoothly! That is a pretty teeny knot and I think I have some paint brushes that are about that size. The one I have are super floppy too and are for inks. Super cool little brush! Oh yeah, my allergies are kicking in. I hadn't thought about it much, because they start coming on slowly but now I can really tell. It's like the frog in a pot of water-lol! Take care!
Nice one Dave! I have 1 or 6 Valets or Valet Auto-Strop shavers. They are Nice and smooth. My allergies have been bad for a couple weeks here in Northeast Oklahoma! Thanks for sharing and have a good week.

Enjoyed the shave Dave! I have an A1 and on the hunt for an A2. I picked up a user grade VB2 yesterday, and will put it to use later in the week.
Sounds like a Great shave coming up, Thanks
