    Thanks Gary. I especially like the Ever-Ready brush with the clear handle.

    No shaving related items, but I am waiting for an 18k gold celtic cross & chain to arrive.

    Just bought a Walbusch B5. I won't say what I paid for it since I got it on a best offer but will say it is more than I've paid for any safety razor. This is a rare and collectable razor so I don't see it as money down the drain but as a long term investment unlike some other high priced razors.

    My understanding this particular iteration is basically a Merkur Progess with a humpback slant head. At one point Merkur made a version of this razor unless there are seperate maker marks and such the only way to tell the difference between the 2 is by the adjuster knob whicb is removable on the Walbusch but not on the Merkur as seen here.

    Ordered some TOBS sandlewood and a new razor that I have never heard of [Haryali's of London] it was only $15.00 so no big deal if I don't like it.[​IMG]

    I saw this Buffalo shaving brush and thought it looked cool and unusual.

    I'll probably install a nice two banded fan badger in it.

    I just ordered a 24mm silver-tip with the Luna handle from Whipped Dog--having it set at a 50mm loft. I bought a silver tip from Larry about 6 years ago and [for the price] I was very pleased with it.[​IMG]

    I have a sad Key Hole Simpson shaving brush (KH3) in need of a new knot .....

    Maggard's 22mm SHD (Super High Density) Two Band Badger, Fan Knot

    I never tried one for myself so I thought I'd better review its qualities.

    I thought about purchasing a KH4, but remembered I had a sad old KH3 that needs attention. Anyways mine is a butterscotch. :)
