I swear, I am not collecting these...but the eBay seller was practically giving it away. I couldn't pass it up.
Nothing shaving related ... but I am waiting for a Waterman Carène in black lacquer and palladium trim, with a Fine nib. For the uninitiated ... a fountain pen.
2 1946 Aristocrats in cases with blade holders, another 1958 fat boy in case with instructions, and a fourth ranger tech in it's case with instructions.The last ranger tech in it's case was listed as a super speed lol. 28 bucks and it was mine in mint condition. The case was in 90%. It's worth the hunt for deals on the Bay just never get caught in a bidding tornado.
I got some murdder focker in the mail, really interested in that soap since I've been reading up on it. Can't wait till it gets here
I won these little while ago. The look rough by I hope time and scrubbing can fix them both up. The c type I cant tell if its safety bar on OC I know the type B is an OC. Now I need more blades. Snagged this at the minimum bid plus free shipping.
I took the rest of my free to spend money and headed on to whipped dog to get a sight unseen razor, and the poormans strop kit. Much to my surprise I was offered an unseen razor of Larry's in a PM on this forum so I emailed Larry and changed my order. Strop kit, 20mm burgundy handled synthetic brush, and a sample chunk of Mitchells Wool Fat. Thank you so much for offering to send me a razor. I won't tag your name in case you wish to remain Anonymous. I'm so excited I get to try a modern synthetic brush, 2 examples of shaving inventiveness beyond its time, I get a real straight razor again and I get to try MWF! I also picked up a dusty bottle of Clubman at the grocery today so All I need now is more injector blades.
Another great deal from Connaught. Got these two 150gr bath soaps for $10 including shipping. Cheapest I could find anywhere else was $12 per soap..so for me it was a 50%+ discount.
I've been enjoying my Model I injector so much I picked up a Model G, one with a turquoise handle. Should be here tomorrow. Also a lightly used tub of LA Shaving Soap Topanga Fougere. And a bunch of Barrister & Mann stuff: Latha Sandalwood soap, which is supposed to be a sandalwood and blackcurrant scent; Cologne Russe soap and aftershave; and a tub of Vetyver Santal soap, to replace one that I have just about used up.
I am also waiting on some injector blades. I'm down to 2 and I have some new to me injectors coming to me. I got a 7 blade pack of the Chinese Schick and a 20 pack of personna.
You will have no trouble getting rid of it if you don't like it. But you probably will, it's a true classic.
Yes, I did it again - another order from Italian Barber has just been shipped to me. This one contains: 1x Lea Classic SC 1x Krampert's Frostbite AS 1x Intesa Glacial AS Balm It should be here this coming week!
