What are you waiting on to arrive...?

some fine additions to the den Joseph..

 

Thanks, Gary. I went on a mini-binge.
I wish we had these emojis on TSC.

 

Waiting on a few things.
Some knots:

and some TdH:

 

Great choices Jason ..... I've used all three of those knots. They're my few my favorites.

 

Thanks! The G5B is new for me and the SynBad is a fave, albeit in big bulb form.

 

In the process of re-building a 1925 Albright shaving brush from only having the ferrule.



I show the details on my brush thread after I construct it.

 

Wizamet W-11


Unbranded Russian razor I purchased because the head makes it look like a possible Rotbart clone.

 

Nice Mike, I have an adjustable Wizamet already and a 3 piece coming in now from Hungary.

Thank you Dave. I used my other smooth handle version W-11 this morning. Great shaver...but the handle can get a little slippery. I'm hoping this ribbed version gives a little better grip. Both of mine were also shipped from Hungary as well.

 

Yep, the ribs would be nice. Here's mine with just length of the handle flat spots. Adjustment knob is grabs/catches at times but works. Just a Soviet copy so not as smooth as a Gillette. And here's the 3 piece that has made it to NY Customs now. No numbering that I saw.......

 

Yes sir, that looks just like mine. I agree, definitely not as refined as a Gillette, but I always seem to get a great shave with it. I'm looking forward to hearing your thoughts on the 3-piece.

 

myself as well..

 

Here’s what I’m waiting on at the moment.
PAA Sacré Bleu shave soap
PAA Atomic Pumpkin soap and splash
3 alum blocks
TFS Soap Opera Credentials soap and aftershave
100 Permasharp blades
100 Vi-John platinum blades
Wholly Kaw Double Agent soap and aftershave splash

 

I’m trying to curtail my RAD but I just couldn’t let this beauty get away. It appears gently used and in need of a good home...my home!

 

Congrats, that's a nice score. I had that in my watch list and snoozed on it... I thought it had 4 hours left on the listing when I was really 4 minutes. Glad to see that went to someone here though.

 

Oh man. I know how you feel. I flaked on a different one. I’m not sure if it’s just me but it seems like there aren’t many choices and what is available has gone way up in price. I swear the average Schick injector, say something really common like an L type were plentiful and selling for like $10. Now there aren’t many and they are all way more expensive. Not sure what is going on.

 

Been picking up more overtime & call-in hours lately, so... a couple more gillettes are inbound.
