Good looking razor and brush combination Amigo.

 

Thank you Amigo. I just got the brush in yesterday. I think I will really like it once I have it broken in.

 

Looks like another lather monster.

 

Open Comb Tech-Prismatic/Twin Treet Falcon/Proraso. The huge cap span makes the Prismatic a very noisy razor, using 2 Falcon blades on the OC Tech plate quiets considerably. Marvelous comfort and efficiency. I could have done without a second lather on my head but used the excess to do a cleanup pass using the stock plate which I'll return to tomorrow.

So here is a razor not in Waits Compendium or anywhere else I can find on the internet but it's an Open Comb for OCtober. If anyone knows anything about this silver plated vintage travel razor, please fill me in. It was a smooth but very efficient shaver. Just a joy to use and have. The Vanilla Safi fit right in and is a generous sample from Pete who I hope is well. Take care everyone !
