Yeah that's the one I wanted, the funny thing is I've wanted this razor since day one. I've always liked the look and reviews it gets. Happy Happy!!
I remember various older posts acknowledging your admiration for it...I'm so happy you finally went for it.
OK, So I said I wasnt going to buy anything else this month ... But The price for the lot was too good. I plan on keeping the bowls and the blades and the FS brush. The razors and the omega brush may become PIF material or may be reserved for the newbie giveaway
Nice haul. I recognize the weishi but not the others. Are they Parker and Edwin Jagger razors? Is the omega a synthetic? I like the shape of the knot end.
Yeah pretty much, I'd like to get the Fine Slant when it comes out soon. The Merkur Futur has been a razor I've wanted for a very long time. I'm really excited.
Thanks, Robert. I'm really excited about this razor! I'm not normally an adjustable guy but this one seems so cool and smooth. I've held out for a long time on this razor, I now need to rework my area that I store my 12-razors- in-rotation. I'm really jazzed!!
I've been eyeing it for a while myself...it was the right move Kerry, everyone from this board and 1,200 people from Amazon can't be wrong. The thing must be awesome!
The razor on the left is an unknown brand, but the head sure looks like an EJ, from there you have the Weishi, Schick Krona, shaving factory, and Merkur 20C Both the Omega and Frank Shaving brushes are synthetic
I haven't been keeping this this updated. If you are going bail on NB16, go all out right? First up are three razors coming back from @gssixgun at Gemstar Customs, Glenn did a polish and hone on a Kinfolks The Ace and a Genco Easy Aces. He also did a full restore with Wenge wood scales and a Turquoise wedge on a Case Brothers razor from 1902-1912, pictured below. Next up, a Dixon cutlery razor with cool celluloid scales that went for $1.04 on the bay, plus $4 shipping. Next up a Geo. W. Korn Straight that was less than $20 shipped. Next is a book I have been looking for that is out of print. Made a lowball offer and he accepted. This will probably result in me finding out about more razors I want. Won an awesome PIF from @gmaugie007 for a Route 66 soap and sample. Last up are two more recruits for my SR army coming from Canada. Doing a trade with @RezDog for an ERN and a Wapi razor, ERN below. Ok, looking at this I see why my wife might be concerned with my shave purchases. I also need to do something other than browse the bay when I have a sleepy baby laying on me.
