    What a unique razor Dave! Thanks for the write-up too. You must have put some time in on this one (and $$$ too lol).

    Thanks Mike, they can be had for a very reasonable price if patient. $52 for this one to me was more than fair for a great shaver with history :happy088:

    May 25th
    Razor: RR BBS
    Blade: Bolzano Superinox (1)
    Brush: Simpson CH2 synthetic
    Pre-shave: PAA Cube
    Soap: B&M Dickens Revisited
    PAA Galactic Witch Hazel
    B&M Dickens Revisited


    Good morning!

    Excellent shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

    Fourth Razorock DE of the month, the BBS. Great razor. Smooth and easy.

    I believe this is only my second use of Dickens Revisited. What a lovely fresh clean scent. If Will releases the matching splash it will be a definite purchase, well if available in January.

    Have a great day!

    Colibri (Hummingbird) safety razor with 1.10mm base plate.
    Feather blade
    Simpson T3 Trafalgar
    Tabac shave soap
    Royal Copenhagen cologne

    The T3 whipped the Tabac up with no problems....just thick awesome lather this morning.

    Three great drama free passes with the Colibri this morning with just a hint of Alum.

    A little witch hazel and Royal Copenhagen and this Tuesday shave was in the bag.

    I hope everyone has a great day!

    This morning's shave was a beauty. 0:50 to load the Central Texas(Down At The River)soap onto the Stoylin "li'l brudder" brush. That's longer than any other loading time I've done. Well, I said I was going to get up to a minute by the end of MAYhem, and I'm right on target. No problems, no issues, no Knicks or cuts. The A.S. of choice today was Vetiiver(de Guerlain). Welll...,maybe ONE issue-I put on a little too much. The mossy Vetiver scent really came out today. Monsieur Guerlain knows how to work with fragrances(or KNEW-is he dead?). Anyway, another Outta This World Excellent-that's 5 straight.
