I'm afraid I might be superficial enough to let that interfere with my enjoyment.

If you want to find out before you buy one, I'd be happy to loan you my Schweinchen.

I'm wondering about whether it's worth spending more for the 14-2

I don't have a 14-2, but if it's anything like a 14, and @gcgallant's makes me think it is, then it'll be a very different rescue than the thick Sheffield grind Schweinchen.

I'm at the same time tempted and terrified: what happens if I transform your razor into a smoking piece of rust?

Let me think about it ๐Ÿ™

That would be less than ideal ๐Ÿ˜…

But since you already have straights that haven't autocombusted spontaneously, I think I'm taking a very small risk here. All I'd ask you to do is sending it back in registered mail.

Let me think about it ๐Ÿ™

Of course

If your offer is still open, I would gladly accept it. If I ruin your razor, I'll buy you another one. And I will send it back in whichever way you like.

Hi, yes, the offer still stands ๐Ÿ™‚

I've refreshed the edge for you and it's ready to go.
