A couple of things arrived today. Fatboy Schick Type A Very happy about the type a Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I just received mine and used it today. It was a very good shaver for me. Even on 3 it was efficient and had a good amount of blade feel. I hope you like yours as much as I do mine. Those both look great but that Type A is a beaut!
Thanks Dave. I really got lucky on this one. The gold plating looks so nice that I don't want to mess it up by using it. Luckily for me I have another Schick Type F as my user razor which is in good condition other than no longer having it's gold plating on the head, but the brass & copper areas still look nice when polished. Here are some comparison pics of the two side by side.
Just picked up three oddball shaving soaps that I've not heard of before. It'll probably be a while before I actually get around to trying them. And a few slightly older purchases to catch up on... Score! I'd prefer the full size puck. But since they're extinct I'll take what I can get. An EDT to go with my R4L set! I bought two, actually. And a gift from Sra. Hutchinson to replace one that I just killed off.
One more. An inexpensive spice rack. For spices? Nope. I'll get a nicer one sooner or later, but this one works for now.
Not shave related, but they do have blades ........ Eight various planes and moulding / trim planes off Craig's list. This is the sellers pic, but actually they're in great shape, mainly dusty. The price he asked was nice ..... I offered $20 less and he accepted. I couldn't beat the price!
Great score! I use to see these in the thrift store when I was a teenager for a buck or two ...... Oh well I didn't know any better.
A couple of packages. English leather shave soap And 2 shave cream jars Mennen Pamolive Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
My Captain's Choice Obsidian shaving bowl arrived: Also picked up an A/S and soap sampler, and large sizes of "Land Ho" since it was on sale: And I also got this bonus, a "shaving bowl second?" Damned if I can find anything wrong with it:
