If it is a production number it should be in the 160s or lower. I just found a second style guard with either 170 or 171 on the stem.
Ordered a 59 gillette red tip, should ship tomorrow, pretty fair price. Glad It's coming in, gives me a chance to tinker around cleaning up the razor and polishing it. for the shape it's in I'll admit, based off the pictures, it was very nice. I need to go pick up some more Barbacide this week, ran out of it last week cleaning up my blue tip.
Yesterday I scored this vintage Gillette display case for a bartered price of $40 + shipping. It looks like it’s in good condition.
Bought some more Yaqi brushes on their 11.11 sale, don't need really more brushes but these are knots that are softer than my other Yaqi knots and I really enjoy their brushes alot. I think lathering with a brush is one of the most enjoyable parts of traditional shaving. Chianti's Evil Zebra Artic sky Have some great shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!
Black Friday sale email and I had to open it. Taylors is a great product and who couldnt use a couple more boars ???
