Mail call.
The personna 74 each have 5 blades.
The Wilkinson sword classic has 4
The ranger tech is in good condition and should clean up nicely.

 

The first of my Black Friday software hauls came in today. This will be my first time trying a Van Yulay product. The two samples were free additions to my order. And after seeing how my New LC handle came out after Jim @jluc cleaned it with a Cape Cod cloth I had to get one for myself!

Let us know what you think about the Razorine once you've tried it out. I've though about trying it as well.

 

I will in a couple of days.

That's a lot of Tungsten

 

I’m so glad as the seller originally thought they only had 2 each and I’ve seen packs with 2, 5, 10. I was hoping for 10 but I’m happy with the 5 each.

 

From across the pond...



The only Ruby Synthetic outside of Italy. For now!

 

Ok that’s freakin cool. Love the color.

 

Got some blades from another member, thank you very much! Tucks of Astra SS, Bic Super Platinum, & GSB. Also received a Stirling 26mm 2 band badger. I like 22mm & 24mm brushes, so thought if I was going to ever go bigger, the Stirling 2 band is an affordable foray into the 26mm world. I'm including a pic of it next to my 22mm Rooney for size comparison.

 

Also scored a red tip, date code A2, at a flea market for a very cheap price. After a hot water & dawn bath, it cleaned up pretty nice!

 

wow. thats cool..

 

I don't know what I bought or if it can be fixed but I got all weak kneed when I saw it! Definitely not a regular "Bill Squat". Love that hammered finish!

 

Jim @bladeshark of oldschoolshavingbrushes.com might be interested in photos of that brush. I didn't see one on his website.

 

Thanks! I'll give him a shout...

 

Glad to hear there was 5 per pack instead of 2 lol. People seem to have nothing but good things to say about these blades, and they should last a while.

Nice haul!

 

Thanks! I’m glad too

 

are these a different shave compared to readily available blades?
