    Ive had this debate on some tazors. I do like the polished copper and brass. But i also like the gold. Hard decision

    Recently acquired ABC Shell "double ring" in an excellent condition basketweave case.
    I love these abc OC's.
    Anyone help with this date stamp? They always start with a letter right?
    I've heard and seen the "B" can barely be legible, but what's this at the end?...a zero?

    Tonight’s shave with my new to me minty G1 Fatboy. I paired it with a vintage Gillette Stainless J2 blades. I set it on 7 as I shaved yesterday.
    Great smooth shave. It was the first time I used these particular blades. Very happy with how they performed.

    Bostonian Shave this evening. I paired it with a feather and hot damn it felt aggressive. Its been awhile since ive shaved with a bostonian because i sold them off a couple of years ago. This is a recent acquisition that i finally cleaned up and it turned out nice.
