    Thanks Ron. I have not been actively looking anymore. As I have WAY too many razors. When something good comes my way. I won’t pass on it. I actually sold all of my repeating razors last year. I regretted selling them all. So now I have a good user and a mint keeper. I keep finding Sheratons lately. I have 3 now. No clue as to what I will do with those.

    just arrived.
    -Type d with case, instructions and nearly full if not fill original blade bank.
    The rest was just bonus.
    - brass micromatic oc w/case & 4 original blades
    - austrian oc travel 3 piece razor ( slant?) the handle screws on but the razor head is slanted… either the threads are stripped or it was meant to do this.

    Yaqi 24mm black marble handle silver tip- Wahoo did this one bloom on first cleaning(lost about 10 fine hairs on cleaning), excellent lather generator, heavenly soft pillow like tips + excellent lather painter. Took it out for 1st use today and performed wonderfully. Bought it on sale and this should be my last brush for some time.

    Comparing the black marble brush silver tip to my other badgers for bloom size.

    Thanks, they seem to work well also. I was a synthetic brush user for years(still using them) and started trying badger brushes and they do have for sure a nice and different face feel and that is all part of using brushes IMO.
