    I have a TSD shop order pending. That's about it. Oh wait, I have my birth year/quarter Gillette Slim Adjustable on the way too.

    I'll be interested in hearing your thoughts on the SOC boar. I've been tempted and most reviews are overwhelmingly positive, but I've got this thing about wooden handles (not a hangup you share, obviously. :D). If it came in acrylic, I'd probably own one.

    Edit: my resistance to wooden handles is pretty laughable, considering my fondness for wooden shave soap bowls. Ah well, it is what it is. :)

    I will be happy to let you know how I like the SOC. Your resistance to wooden handles is pretty laughable. Maybe you thing they are not as durable.

    Well, the blades showed up, but the seller took his time shipping the razors and they now seem to be taking a scenic tour all around Michigan. Perhaps They will eventually head my way...

    In the meantime, I ordered a clearance tub of B&M Rhapsody and a bottle of Krampert's Frostbite, both from Maggard's. Ordered almost a week after I won the auction for the injectors. Which will make it here first?

    I know what you mean with the scenic route. I had a razor go into New York from India and its spent the last week touring the northeast I should get it today, I hope.

    Apparently I wanted to get more American Straight Razors today. The Spike is an eBay purchase where I was not a wantabee lowball playa and the seller took my offer. Its an 11/16 wedge grind razor. The Imp is from a member on here, and is in great shape.

    More from the Russian Federation. Shipping now so hopefully the Russian goat cart meets up with the Bulgarian one carrying my Mladost razor.

    I may have to go back and revisit the Rapiras. I love my Ladas and Voskhods and even have a soft spot for a couple of the St. Petersburg blades, but never gave the Rapiras a fair shake.

    Ah, that makes sense then.
    I tend to be interested in items that are unusual and eccletic. Not necessarily rare or expensive.
    I think most people here would be surprised to learn that I own less than 20 razors, 8 brushes, and probably 10 soaps and creams (plus assorted samples).

    I've had the pleasure of owning some one of a kind items, but if I don't use it, it gets sold or traded.
