    Tuesday I'm going to get out my Great Uncle's (passed away in the 1930's) Old Type (1920's). I only use it every once in a while since it has a small, but stable crack in the handle. The Lemogue mug, which I will not use because it is so delicate, was my great-grandfather's (passed away in the 1920's).

    The mug and razor are beautiful Herm. It is very nice that you are able to enjoy such pieces of family history.

    I am really enjoying using the iKon B1 Open Comb razor. The shaves have been smooth and I find the razor efficient. Three passes and minimal clean up ended in a near BBS. Overall I would give the shave a solid "A". I hope everyone has a fantastic Tuesday.

    Today i used a new long comb bar handle. Wow, i feel like I'm twelve again. Think I used a bit of preasure. Only two weepers. I never really like the bar handle, it looks nice, but there's no knob on the end, and it islighter than it feels like it should weigh. I think I'm going to weight one of mine. It should be pretty easy to take a cap off and fill it with bbs and silicone.
