    Hey Brit, do you have the RFB NEW that's the same exact plate but OC? Would love to know how similar it is to your Hybrid.

    The hybrid tech is one of the very few vintage Gillette heads I have never tried. It might look a tech to everyone else, but that is one rare razor. Beautiful sir!

    Those two Puma SR were shop showcase ones. They were normally produced but not finished. Instead og making the thread and honing them, the producers stamped a message on the backside of the blade saying " not for use". So the retailer can let the customer manipulate them with a minimum risk of cut, and they avoid to find them beeing stolen.
    I made them shave-ready two days ago.
    Badger brush Mühle (mill in german) and soap "la savonnière du Moulin" (the mill soapfactory) :D

    Cold Water Wash
    Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Jayaruh #313
    Open Faced Damaskeene
    ShaVeZee SE
    CWR
    English Leather

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #313 badger brush. I did two passes with the Open Faced Damaskeene razor with a ShaVeZee SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with English Leather AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
