Thank you, my local plating company did the replate. I've used them for several razors now and the blades boxes. I'm in Sheffield in the UK, take a look at their website...

What a terrific shave I had with the Derbylux cream - it's so cooling, the lather is very rich and the scent is awesome. It's also very skin-friendly.

First shave with Country Club Habana today. 20 seconds to load the oscar11 badger. Great, easy, thick, lather. It seems to be thirsty. “Spoiler” in the Red Tip. Nice smooth, close, shave. I finished Country Club Southern Oud.

Gem Junior razor (baton handle)
Gem Stainless blade
VDH Deluxe SS
VDH boar brush
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel/Sage mix
Colorado Sage cologne

Another mighty fine shave with a Gem Stainless blade. I don't rightly know how this is happening cuz I've never before had good luck with an SE stainless. Regardless, I'll take it for sure and be about the day

 

Have you ever measured your knot? My WD synthetic is 26mm (26.71 if getting technical). It's a very good brush and I like it but was surprised at the size. I was going to order one directly from WD, then fellow member @GeneralKinetics listed a 24mm for sale, and bought from him (nice smooth transaction BTW). On the WD site only 24 and 30 are listed. Just curious....
