    Congratulations, Eric! It's not unusual for folk who collect those blades to go well into the double digits with one. My friend David Place won’t shave with any other blade!

    My daughter-in-law is a nurse practitioner and believes it was just a glitch! If not, I’ll need to go on TB drugs for a few months.

    They’re around! I sold all my A & B models. Of the C’s the VB2 is a great shaver and second only to the great VC4.

    Congratulations, Gary! Great score! I’ll be interested in your thoughts on the shave! I haven’t shaved my mug with a safety razor in two years! May have to give it a swing. I have that new Supply Pro I supported on Kickstarter arriving around my birthday. So who knows! :D

    I agree. It would be quite rare for an American citizen to get TB unless they come into contact with someone who is contagious.

    Rating: 5 / 5
    Razor: Thistle 5/8”
    Brush: Epsilon Horse Hair
    Lather: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
    Aftershave: Sailor Jerry Spiced Navy
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Alum Block
    Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    I had a very close and comfortable shave with the Thistle straight. The horse hair brush whipped up a nice lather following a 60 + second load, as per Joe’s, @Primotenore recommendation on a past video.
    The Sailor Jerry Spice Navy aftershave has a clean and refreshing scent. It does not linger for more than an hour or so, but it is very enjoyable.

    I hope you all had a great day gentlemen.
