    I picked it up 3wks ago at a local fleamarket for 5 bucks. It was pretty roached out. 'Bout an hour with Scrubbing Bubbles, toothpaste, and MAAS metal polish and she looks good as new

    That was a great find at fantastic price. It always amazes me how well the vintage Gillette Razors clean up.

    Another very good shave to end the month. Another consistent near BBS shave this morning. After using the Wolfman OC with increased blade gap for the entire month, I must say it is an exceptionally smooth and efficient razor. With the exception of 2 days I have used a Simpson CH2 Synthetic for each of the shaves this month. While I do have other synthetics the CH2 Synthetic is by far my favorite synthetics and some of my favorites period. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    Amazing! Love the new brush. I think I might sell of all my old vintage handles.
