    I love that Star razor. I'm a sucker for them. That's a nifty brush handle as well. I love cast iron. I have my grandmother's old one and use it all the time.

    Is that a Never Shed shaving brush? Very nice!

    Similar style to the Never Sheds. Are you restoring it? Horse hair?

    It is horse hair. I'm going to start with a cleaning and see how this knot works.

    Stopped in a local resale shop today. Sitting in the case by the register was a Schick E3, I believe it was...butterscotch handle like my E2 (which was this morning's shave, coincidentally) and really good plating but the non-opening head. Case was in okay shape, I've seen worse, and an empty mag of 1960s Schick blades (the tan/green ones). They were asking $15 but I don't need it. Point is, finds can still happen when you least expect it!

    Been waiting on a slow boat to deliver some knots to try. Luckily it got here much quicker than the estimate! They are a bit taller than maggard but I do like them so far!

    In the first pic thats a maggard on the right.

    That's how I can afford to use a blade only twice, shop around. Great price!!

    Great minds think alike! I will break in the soap and razor Weds. I will need to leave too early tomorrow morning and will not have the time to fully appreciate and enjoy the new products.
