    So birthday money package #1 arrived today. #2 will be a couple of weeks getting here from bestshave. I am so excited I can't decide how to begin!

    I think I'll start with the Little Bastone, load a Lord platinum (a tuck came with it), and inagurate the new brush with the Cella. Unless I change my mind! Yaaaa! :scared011:
    (The Baili blades came yesterday, so I have one shave on the first blade. I'll post my initial impression, but Baili shave #2 is going to have to wait.)

    Arko Cool Shaving Cream
    100 Bolzano Superinox DE Blades
    Mitchell&'s Wool Fat
    Fatip Grande
    Omega 31064
    RazoRock Little Bastone OC
    Cella Shave Cream
    200 Treet Black (carbon)
    200 Baili Blue (from China)

    A couple of PIF's and late night shopping on the Bay.
    A Canadian single ring in good shape and a new improved from the bay. Thanks to Justin for the Star and Joe for the blades.

    I literally open every single blade in every tuck of those Tigers to see if I had won the gold blades.

    ... And of course not.

    PLEASE review these blades! They look so cool I just gotta have some (later, of course... my shaving plate is a little full of newness right now!). I'd like to know how they perform before diving in... if you would be so kind. Thanks!

    This razor arrived yesterday. I'm always a bit anxious upon receiving ebay-acquired razors to see how accurately the razor was described and displayed in the auction versus reality. In most instances, there are few surprises. This old 7/8" Wostenholm was pretty much what I expected: a razor in need of new scales (note the worm holes near the bottom wedge pin & split horn neat the pivot), with a blade that is in pretty darned good shape. This one should be a real beauty when cleaned up! :happy088: A steal for $35 shipped, I think. Razors with this blade size often go for 4-5 times that amount in the frenzy of ebay….

    Tuckaway, Milady Decollette , or Chesterfield Gold. I do not have the case, so it could be any one of them. I will just call it a new improved short handle.
