Solved a dilemma. I had just bought a NIB/NOS Gillette Twinjector that I didn't know if I had the 'heart' to open up and use... Pretty thing: But, seems like I don't have to cross that bridge quite yet as I just picked up a used one I am now waiting on the arrival of this one - that will be put to use as soon as it arrives:
It was more of a lucky coincidence. I posted 'the haul' in another forum and mentioned that I wasn't sure if I would open the box. Next thing I know I get a message from a member there saying he has one - not in box - he is willing to let go. Worked out well
Mason Pearson Pure Badger Brush.. I just got this Mason Pearson Pure Badger from a UK EBay Seller for 2o Notes English & local postage...These Brushes are a bit of an Enigma because they get sold for anything between £50.00 English to £190.00 English depending on where you get them from..Doesn't quite figure..Anyway..I done my homework & a personal friend of Mason Pearson said that they have Simpson Knots..A lot of folks wont entertain them because they are not well known in the shaving community..I don't care about that Guff so I reckon I got a bargain here.. Billy..
Picked up a couple vintage Simms brushes for restore. I enjoy collecting and restoring these seldom found Canadian made brushes. They dont look like much now but hopefully can be restored to their former glory.
When I bought the soap the AS was sold out so now playing catch up. Love the scent so know I will like this aftershave.
Waiting on.... Two of these: And one of these (6.x oz): For the very good price of $24 shipped for the lot.
I know it's not shaving related...but it is essential for my new business venture. This: This skin combo (back and edge): This screen protector x2: This USB for backing up client files:
I don't think this razor would excite a lot of people (I'm sure @Sabre has five ) - but I really liked it and was happy to get it It's a NIB/NOS black-and-yellow Schick Super II razor model. Made in Holland around, I believe 1972.
This one isn't disposable but it sure is an old cartridge Yeah, I like mixing it up in the mornings - an artisan Wolfman stainless steel one day, a Wilkinson disposable cartridge the next and...an injector the next. And so on
I thought of you the other day when I saw on eBay a cartridge razor in a wooded box nos. I don't remember the name but it said something about a barbershop promo or something. It was cool looking
I happen to think it's very cool. I like twin cartridge razors. To me twins shave the best out of cartridge razors. I use twins often on my head and with my headblade. I like the yellow. Were those cartridges pivot or not? I didn't know the lubrication strip was already around in 1972.
Another assortment pack of blades. I was at my son's house last weekend, and he pulled out an old Schick injector...said "Eversharp" on the case, but looked like a Type L or J. I told him to clean it up & put it to use.
