    This Geo Wostenholm Pipe is nearly identical in shape, size, and grind to my prized 1941 Russian. With the exception of the Russian sporting a hint more of a smile they are look alikes. Not surprisingly, it shaves nearly as well. It’s been out of action for some time with a broken scale that I super-glued back together as a temporary (?) fix. Clean and smooth - minimal touch ups for a wonderful shave. :happy036:

    I have wondered about that fragrance.
    I'm glad you reviewed it.

    Thanks for sharing!

    Pears Glycerine Soap
    Erasmic Bowl Shaving Soap
    Omega 10065 Boar Brush
    Wilkinson Sword Classic TTO with an Astra SP
    Witch Hazel
    Aloe Vera Gel
    Brut Attraction Totale AS

    I like to give the Erasmic a run out occasionally. It is one of the very few UK made soaps to be found in most high street pharmacies and I would hate to see it disappear as the others have done.
    3 passes for a DFS+ result.
