    Yeah the Mamba really shines, it's amazing how IB can put out such a razor for under $50.
    That's the Game Changer type knot you like, I like that knot much more than that tuxedo type knot in the WCS brush. Thanks Steve!

    What what.... mail call day!

    Excited about some new Stirling scents to try including the new to Stirling Agar which is suppised to be an Oud. Never had an oud before but it has a lovely someone spicy scent. Also got a few 22mm and 24mm knots from Maggard. Very excited!

    Oh and a brush arrived too! Now to sell a few restorations to put a little money back in the bank account!

    Hey Keith, I was hoping you would get the package today. I showed my wife the razor I got from you. When she found out that I traded for it, she was a bit befuddled that grown men would trade razors through the mail, but at least she wasn't irritated. This is a great hobby and a great group of guys.
    Thanks Keith.

    If she's anything like my wife; she looks at me like a kid trading matchbox cars. Smiles, shakes her head and walks away. :happy097:

    Segal adjustable

    And

    These are suppose to be vintage feather blades but I’m not sure. Only difference I see is a current production has white plastic dispensers and these appear to be clear.

    Finally I got this psycho tech earlier this week. It’s in beautiful shape!

    Segal used proprietary blades. This is my first and I just modified a couple of DE blades
    There are other models but apparently this adjustable is a little harder to come by.

    Our pitbull's name is Bruno. Biggest baby Ive owned out of 6 or 7 dogs over the years. Pitbulls get a terrible reputation and have been wonderful dogs from my experience.

    I think I have two non-adjustable. I did not know they made an adjustable. How did you modify the blade to fit? I want to give mine a spin.

    Most people use a cuticle scissors to trim the blades. Matt at Razor Emporium has a YouTube video on doing this.
