    Was at Lowes to buy a spade bit to install a peephole when I noticed a Rite in the Rain mech pencil. When I saw that it has 1.3 dark lead I just hadta have it. A bit long for a shirt pocket but writes very boldly and feels great in the hand.

    Not as quality built as Zebra's steel pencil but recommended if you're looking for a decent, tough pencil reasonably cheap.

    Be advised...the knurled grip is designed for use with gloves and I can see it working very well for that. For normal use it's going to take a little getting used to.

    Been wanting one of these for a while. Finally found a seller that didn't price it high. Now I need a case for it. About $11.00 shipped........ [​IMG]

    I should pay more attention to the Seller when taking a chance on what I am bidding on. This lot came in with the 2 razors I wanted in MUCH better condition than pictured. The Senator even had a card from Back Roads Gold showing it was Mirror Plated on 6-15-2021 that I didn't expect. Messaged him and he said he made the card for it when He shipped it as it had been sitting after getting done. Going back to check the listing and it was none other than Chris Spencer of BRG that sold the lot. I should read more than I do as I normally just go over the pics thoroughly. Win-Win this time for sure !

    SNMIRN Arrived today, all $6.99 of it, pictured with its Ming-Shi/Q-Shave (top) and original (1985ish Hoffritz) Futur (center).

    Cosmetics and feel are fine, magnetic cap works, but I'm a bit dubious that alignment is spot on. Close enough maybe.

    Not exactly a baby, its weight is closer to the Futur than the other Chinese contender.

    Looking forward to your reviews on that razor. I've been looking at it quite a few times lately.
