The Haul: February 2016

the bay
it's a little easier once I figured out which ones I wanted. after watching and studying a little,I had a better idea on which razors I wanted.
I hunted them, bid on many, let them go if they go over my limit.
I've been able to get
2 Bokers
C-Mon
wostenholm
and now a friodur
all have been real nice
the scales on the frio are a bit warped, not unusable but not pristine.
did you hone your own friodur? is there any difference in honing the ss?

 

Hahahah. I know that feeling!!

 

Well, I picked up some Chiseled Face ghost town barber and 10 gem single edge blades today for my growing collection of Gem razors.

 

Hope you feel better soon so that you can take the Blackbird out for a spin.

 

Thanks buddy. I feel like dodo. I look like Father Time. Tomorrow I'm going to shave my face and head even if it takes everything I have.

 

Some software came this week...

 

Two Ace 24x69 mm synthetic knots. One is going in my Jayaruh @45 beehive handle.

 

I wouldn't be able to resist taking that razor for a spin either. I hope you heal up soon.

 

Found some Cradtree & Evelyn Moroccan Myrrh soap in a local boutique today. This stuff smells great. I think I will try to find the matching cologne.

 

To be honest...it's not mine. It's on loan...lol. I really enjoy the SS edge on that friodur. One of the best shave experiences for me so far.

 

Kudos on a nice acquisition.

 

I bought all of them for 10TL ($3) from flea market. Gillette Super Adjustable was just 2TL (70 Cents)

 

Congrats! What a haul! I've been searching for a Super Adjustable for eveeeeeeeeeeer...Enjoy!

 

Great score. I like the embossed caps in the two tech style razors. Who is the manufacturer of them.

 

Thank you for your kind words! I hope you'll find a great one soon!

Thank you! Orak itself is a safety razor manufacturer for a long time and the safety razor with a logo of an alligator which splitted into two is a nacet razor, gillette brand.

 

It is indeed a very nice scent. Just don't waste your time on the shave soap. I bought a puck and ended up slicing it up into clothes drawer fresheners.

 

Way to improvise!

 

Thanks for the heads up.
