The Haul: November 2015

I think you may really like 3P - it's my personal Almond scented croap out there and beats Cella and RR

 

This is mind boggling.. I ordered a couple stuffed animals for my grandkids. Check out the tracking from China.

 

Three days HK-SJ. New record?
Btw, charge your phone

 

That's crazy fast! 20% will last all night. Low power mode.. I charge when I go to bed.

 

I found another Pinaud bottle. Time for a cleaning.

 

It takes me longer to get a letter across Connecting cities here.

 

It's so strange, yeah I bought a soap from about 5 miles away and it took 3 days. My package must've caught a good headwind.

 

I recalled similar fast shipping times from China via EBay years ago. Now 1\3rd of the items I order from China never arrive. They others come via Chinese junks across the sea. No more free flights for shipping included buys.

 

winchester straight
gillette travel tech?- still has the paper razor in it
eversharp (not sure the model)
and my looong awaited cella

 

I like the straight. Nice find.

 

thanks....know NOTHING about it

 

I like the Winchester logo

 

Received a beautiful cased gold DeHaven w/ original paperwork and even the proprietary blade and strop paste.
Looks great I think.

​

 

Those are very cool razors. I told myself no more proprietary razors for me though.

 

I know the feeling. It came with the proprietary blade so maybe I can pick the brain of @Billyfergie of what blade might fit/be modded to work with the razor
Worst case it looks great on a shelf....

 

Totally agree. Ive got a couple shelf queens (Laurel, Gibbs).

 

Its hard to say without having a detailed look at it Sir...But that takes a longer blade by the looks of it from here...A Personna Hair Shaper Blade & or a Feather Pro Blade might go in there with a Mod Sir...It would need a spacer behind it to seat it if that's possible...You could use the original blade and take some metal from the front of it & or use it as a template to make a shim/spacer...You get Personna Mini Shaper Blades & the longer ones...Its the longer ones you need Sir...

Billy...

 

My custom strop landed today, made by Tony Miller from 'The Well Shaved Gentleman.' Heavy, quality-made piece, buttery smooth leather; heavy-duty hardware.
'3.0" wide Heirloom Artisan Premium Fast Bridle Leather Strop; Premium Fast Bridle Leather with Heavy 3-Ply Handles'

 

Very nice!

 

New finds!








There is a little corrosion in the clippers, the logo on the cover is worn, but I don't think the brush or any of the tools have been used.

The wife actually talked me into the Safetee Shaving Cabinet. I wasn't going to pay the asking price but she said yes! I was a structure mechanic in the Navy but I dealt with aluminum corrosion, not this amount of steel corrosion. Anyone have any idea on restoring this without hurting the finish?
