Three badger knots from China.

You know it's bad when you happy to get an UGLY brush, but I see history and potential ...




One vintage Old Spice shaving mug and what I believe is an early Hardright Lime Beater shaving brush. It's going to get a serious amount of TLC before you see it again, but if all goes well it will be better than new (I like a challenge). May get a Tuxedo or a Cashmere knot. I've been looking for a Lime Beater for a while.

I know the feeling. Also, I think the Cashmere knot would look really good on that handle.

I haven't tried a Cashmere; with new fresh white lettering it may look amazing.

Have you tried them before? If so which vender do you use?

These are from zyshaving and I've gotten some from them before. These three are pure badger knots, which besides boar knots, many vintage brushes seem to have pure badgers for their brushes, and they are 18mm. Many vintage brushes I've seen use 16mm, but if possible, I'll just enlarge the hole for these knots. I also use virginiasheng and iantang19821024, depending on who has what I need at the best price.

Hope you here back soon and get it

Thanks. That was over three years ago. God has provided!

Oh thats good things always have a way of working out . Im glad your ok gopd things happen to good people.

Whats a cashmere knot?

Can be found on Etsy. It a synthetic knot.

Congratulations! Those are beautiful razors and one heck of a cool design. Hope it works well for you.

This is what I come up with on a search for the Lime Beater. Whether or not if it's a different version, I don't know.

I see got it thanks im still learning a lot bout wet shaving lol i only have 3 brushes of which two are synthetic the brothers grim the purest and a synthetic omega.

This is the one I'm referring



But I do have one like the one you posted. I'm re-knotting with a Tuxedo.

Used what was left over from my Ebay bucks, and for a grand total of $1.16, this will be on it's way........

I'm really psyched about this one. Some very interesting history surrounding this razor. The Mark Cross Razor (1913).

I'm waiting for a gray and brown chawan dottie shaving bowl made by Symmetrical Pottery.

I picked up a Christy as well. It will take injector blades if the Penn blades I have don't work out (Penn should fit both Christy and Mark Cross).
