Here's the two I got inbound (right one is stock photo, mine has the regular label) Not sure about the model number on the 20mm one but just asked him.
Some of these more obscure Spanish/American Type Lather Catchers take a longer wedge blade than usual and I am not sure if this is one of them... Billy...
It came. The numbers are not as sharp and clear to read as on the Futur. Other wise, at least this one, is very well made. I tried in out on a 6. Very noisy sound feedback! For me, it does not give as close a shave as a R41. So the 6 will not get used by me. I can see me using in the lower setting. For the price it give a great shave.
Waiting for arrival from eBay... A new style open comb , year unknown Black Beauty adjustable, D3 , 1983? I dunno Old shaving mug with gilt shells. It just looked waaay over the top. Now I am looking for an elaborate scuttle like Dr. Watson might have used.
Couple of new soaps that I want to try out and an SE to add to my small collection Beaver Woodwright Barnacle Bob Reef Point Classic Barbershop Tim's Greek Peach Backup of SV 70th anniversary Aftershave Milk G-Bar SE razor
Progress and a CC Sandlwood AS. Can't wait for the Progress. Will be my second razor and first adjustable. Pumped.
nice, if you wish post a review and some pics on the haul thread. I'm sure quite a few would like to see and hear your thoughts.
I decided that I had to get one of Mongoose's 'least liked' handles... This is what the details read on my invoice: "The Most Hated Handle in Wetshaving - One of Ten Prototype Handles w/ cross-hatch knurling (discount for slight knurling flaws)" For $20 incl. shipping it's worth checking it out.... Stock photo as mine is in transit:
I didn't get one the last time a batch of these Olympic Schick razors came up for sale but now that there's a second batch up for sale (presumably from that same factory warehouse) I decided to just give in and get one. I mean, it's from the Olympic where a certain Bruce Jenner did fairly well...
Waiting on a stack of Stirling Soaps including and my personal favorite . Also waiting on a factory seconds 26mm Stirling brush!!
