That ZY razor cost 6.36 delivered for free from CHINA! i got this several months ago as i was intrigued with the OC and CC combo... the handle was a holoow plastic one that was flimsy and did not fit right and it was trashed right away - so I used this amazing WCS handle, this Head delivers my favorite DE shvaes - its LOUD - you can feel the blade, but not in a bad way - I like to pair it with Mild LORD blades, and i get amazing BBS shaves with zero irritation - no heat from the alum either

It's Stubby Time!! I broke out this old Stub Tail Razor, circa 1816-1830, around. I had a wonderfully smooth and silent 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues. For an "Old Razor" this one can hold a good edge.

Razor- W.Greaves & Sons. Wedge.
Brush- RazoRock 400, with a Whipped Dog High Mountain Badger Knot.
Soap- Arko/Sandalwood
Aftershave- Shulton Old Spice. Flying Cloud Decanter

I got this Aristocrat because it reminds me of the one my Dad used. It's smooth and easy to use, but also lighter than I prefer. Cologne Russe was one of the first artisan scents I tried years ago and I still love it.
