    Well, I couldn't stand it and had to do a little cleaning. I still have a little work to do on the knurled part of the handle. Would a very fine brass brush cause damage?

    Very odd shave tonight. I'm in the process of moving and 99% of my shave gear is already in the new house. I was loading up some stuff at the old place today and got a call from the hospital that my mother was admitted. Went and sat with her until she went to sleep and decided to go to the old place and clean up. Here's what I found left:
    Got in the mail today what I believe is a 1948 Milord. Sonic cleaned and scrubbed with Dawn.
    Cremo Sandalwood. Not enough for 3 passes
    Barbasol can goodness
    SuperMax SuperStainless (?). Before I started marking them and it felt like it was ripping out the whiskers, not cutting
    Gillette Nacet (5 or 6?). Still amazing
    Peroxide
    Rubbing Alcohol
    CVS Advanced Therapy Moisturizing Lotion.
    BBS shave with no burn with the alcohol and the Moisturizing Lotion feels so good. I may have to remember to try that again. The razor I think is gonna be a keeper. The gold plating is solid but there is a endcap missing. More on that later.

    It’s been so long since I bought it I forgot what I have. I believe it to be a New Improved.
