  3. Tonight's shave was with a Boston/Germany made razor. It was a silky smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me BDBS. Zero issues. This razor is definitely spot on, with everything.

    Razor- Dame Stoodard & Kendal, Boston. Germany.
    Brush- JR#262 Ebony/Birdseye Maple. WD Silvertip. This is a beauty to look at, and to shave with.
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Brisk Spice.

    I think you can see the crack at the pivot... it gave way in the middle of pass 2. Looks like I get a chance to make another set of scales. :)
    Enjoy your shave!

    My own Filly 14 today, just a plain-jane user, but with a fresh jnat edge it shaved like a million bucks. Soap was 'Scottish Barbershop' - B&M Vetiver, Heather, and Clary Sage lathered with a 3-band HMW. A splash of Pink was lovely with the VH&CS.

    Cheers, Steve

  11. Nice razor, I love that brush handle. Where did you get that? Or did you make it?

  12. Thanks. I got it from a local craftsman at an Outdoorsman Show.
  13. Got to do a test shave with this one today. Just got it off the Jnat and had to test the blade. Considering she is in near Nos condition she shaves amazing!![​IMG]
  14. Tonight's shave was with a Russian Beauty. I had a very smooth and very very noisy 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues. I do like using the old Russian blades. Super sharp edges, very stiff, and noisy. Usually no touch-ups needed.

    Razor- Russian. "EKSTRA" ZTV 1956
    Brush- JR#262. Ebony/Birdseye Maple. WD Silvertip.
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy scented
    Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice

  18. Nice! One day I’d like to make one like that for myself. When my son was in scouts we made an neckerchief slide out of a pice of antler I had laying around. When you are drilling that stuff, man does it sink!
  19. That looks like a fun blade to use. Are those scales carbon fiber?
