    Just ordered a nice looking Schick E3 from Andrews @Linuxguile shave shop. Also picked up some personna blades. This whole using those B20 blades just seems like cheating. Great prices on several nice looking Schicks there.

    On a side note if you like that beautiful G5 he has .....get it before I get paid again....just saying.

    I'm waiting on a baby smooth and some Stirling aftershaves from one place and a Chubby 2 Super Badger from another.


    Cheers

    Some bits arrived this morning, stainless steel mug, Speick balm, Nivea Balm and a travel pouch. Still with the postie...Speick Lotion and a Merkur 1904 - had some Amazon vouchers. I've also noticed that my remaining three bottles of first formula Farenheit would be worth crazy money on ebay.....but I shall keep them as I like them.

    I've also seen that awesome Christopher Bradley razor and run across the Ottoman from Barbarossa and I am telling myself NO very very firmly. I do like that Ottoman though...NO and the Christopher Bradley :scared007:NO NO NO NO

    I saw this razor set and wanted it. A Mondesir open comb travel set.. I have no idea if it’s rare or not but I thought the set looked too cool to pass up. Since I have no money.....I had to borrow PayPal money from the Wifey! Lol she wasn’t to happy and I promised her I’d make it up to her..

    Would definitely be interested in your review, hope you don’t mind adding color and backbone to your review I’ve been eying some of their brush handles and love them but I am skeptical on the knots. My Kent’s barely have any backbone once lather hits the loft so I’m looking for something better.

    I will definitely let you know. I can tell you that the silvertip knots are all bloom and no backbone. The larger synthetics are fantastic, however, I have the 28mm Tuxedo and the 30mm black knot and love them. The boar knot in the red and black handle feels a bit small, I definitely prefer the Stirling boar over the Yaqi.

    Got lucky on this one. It was on bidding, but the seller had a real low "buy it now" price. Eight Avon pipe decanters, seven are full. The Calabash pipe is empty, $20.50 total shipped. Not bad considering finding shave related items around here in thrift stores is almost nil.................

    Delivery excitement curtailed as ones open comb arrived with a closed comb. Checked order and I ordered the right one so it's Amazon returns time. Brilliant shave anyway this am as back to the Futur and the rule for the month, well almost :)

    They are. I am hoping they are the original Gem Jr. Blades. I doubt it though.
