  9. Do we actually know if these are made in Thailand? I had read these , the Vietnamese Super Thin, and the Indonesian Goal were all made in Shanghai for local distribution in these various countries (like the Indian Chinese Wilkinson). Afraid I don't read Thai. I know all the distributors say "Made in Thailand" but then so do all the Indian distributors say Made in India. I'd like to try them again.

  12. I'm just going off what the distributor is listing. They very well could be made in China. Nothing on the box is legible to me. After reading some of the reviews about people receiving bum blades I'll bump them to the top of the try list.

  13. Well the first bunch was a couple groups off ebay including ....

    A Pink type K Schick (sorry for the poor pic)
    Type G Schick
    Schick Krona
    A Personna (Star Trek) injector
    Two Gillette ball end SC
    A Gillette New LC
    Two Gillette Techs (one travel)
    A Generic brass razor (head broke, but nice handle)
    A Gem Micromatic
    A 1953 Gillette President (some brassing on handle)
    A very nice 1955 Gillette Red Tip @Terry sent me
    A vintage AV bottle courtesy of @Primotenore (I've been looking for one to decant in to)
    Two butterscotch brushes from ebay (a Plymouth and I think a Simpson) I mainly wanted the Plymouth
    A Maggard's 24mm Cashmere knot for a brush for @Terry

    From an antique store
    A FULL can of Williams Shave Powder (not sure what I'll do with it, but too nice to leave there)
    Two interesting unmarked razors. I think prison or psycho razors (I haven't figured out how to open them)
    A Gillette case that needs a new insert, but in really great shape.

    Interesting haul to say the least! :happy093:

    Thank you Gary! :)

  15. Timeless razor bowl, this is my second one, first one is in storage thanks to my wife. ;) She thought she was doing me a solid when I was in the hospital for 19 days.
    Uncle Jons Surf and Sand, smells just like sun tan lotion.

  16. Great bowl, I have one as well.

    :)
  17. Some things from @Jrdelgado, assortment of blades, some cases to work on. A Red Tip to put paint on, which I already started. And from a seller, two WW II Techs and a cased Gem Pushbutton, which doesn't look used.............

  19. I went to the sale barn today and spent a little less than $15.
    The green brush?? Is it a shave brush or a tragedy in my junk pile?
    The red and white brush is a EverReady 100 that is shedding pretty bad so a re-knot is in it's future
    The first Schick is a Schick Injector G?
    The second is a Eversharp Schick G? I don't know much about these except they look pretty cool. Now if I can find the blades is just bought?
    Last but not least is a Gillette something. It's marked A 3. Maybe 80's model Black Handle SS?
