    I'm waiting for a Whipped Dog synthetic brush, 30mm. I love the 24mm, so I'm really looking forward to trying the "big one" :)

    Thanks to my good friend @Billyfergie I am awaiting a 5.2 ounce Valobra shave soap. I found one on the Bay for a reasonable price. I trust Billy's judgment. :happy005:

    If you like it you can get a kilo of it reasonably cheap for the quantity

    Picked up two old brushes on the cheapish side.

    Brush 1
    One a NOS/NIB Kent (below).
    I really like the shape of the white handle.
    It comes with original box.
    22mm (48mm loft) single band Pure Badger knot (from where Kent's pure badger supposedly were very good)

    Brush 2
    ...and one 'maybe Kent' brush (I really don't know).
    It has a patent number "715631" and "Made in England"
    I found a reference to Kent for that patent number (but now I can't find it again..) and the design remind me a lot about another Kent brush.
    This is the one I picked up (for less than $10 it was worth it to get a red brush and the knot seems ok:));

    This is the Kent brush it reminds me of;

    Anyway, I'll see when I get them in a week or so.

    I really like the eShave brush I already have so decided to pick this one up as well. New shipped for $25 seemed fair.

    Waiting on my first ever Titanium handle. This one by Jurgen Hempel.
    Since the King Cobra is one of my favorite razors I thought it would be apt to doll it up a bit.

    For $80 I felt I had to give it a try...

    Picked up this handle:

    Here are some photo of a the same handle type coupled with the KC head:

    That is one bado setup. Very nice looking and tough to boot.

    Thanks, never having used a Titanium handle I'm really curious as to how/if it will change the razor during a shave.

    I'm looking forward to getting this Eveready brush. The red Bakelite is different and should look nice with a little TLC.

    Interesting handle - you don't see those red ones that often. Very nice.

    Great pickup. Compliments the KC very well and nice feel in ones hand.

    I'm not sure how much difference the titanium makes in regards to weight but the look might cause you to miss a stroke because it looks so cool
