    RyX DoH!

    I ordered mine directly from APShaveCo in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Twenty eight hundred kilometers, 1740 miles. No tracking, it shipped yesterday, it's due... soon. Not sure if I'm going to put it in the Rubberset 400 or the @twhite B-400.

    I quit procrastinating and finally bought a tub of Nuavia Blu.

    Nope, I ordered the knot from Canada - only the handles are from China ;)

    Razor Spending Spree. RSS. Don't even think about this having anything in the least to do with RAD.

    I first ordered a Timeless razor, and being unsure about which head would suit me, I got the scalloped topcap and three plates, hoping that I will manage to send one or two back. The OC in both gaps (.68 and .95) plus the scalloped bar in .95.

    Then I stumbled across this King Cobra, photo from seller:

    I would have to credit @Darkbulb with enabling both of these acquisitions... again!

    Nice gear, Halvor :happy088: And yes, @Darkbulb is known for having that kind of influence on others...

    Since my money was refunded for the two Gold Dollar 66 razors, I placed an order for two more, but one is a spiffy looking "vintage 2016":

    And a regular 66

    I like to call that one the "Centurion" motif.

    - Picked up an I Type. Looks to be pretty clean, nothing fancy.

    - I ordered one of those Futur clones from the bay. I kind of regret selling my Futur, but not enough to spring for a new one. $20 is a good compromise.

    - Waiting on some Pella injector blades. Haven't tried them yet.

    - Small Stirling order coming. I really wanted a bottle of that Stirling Gentleman Splash.

    According to Billyfergie, that is an early I, model 55, as I have one also. It's my favorite Schick. Also, sometimes the dial adjuster on the Futur clone might not be set right, but there are one or two videos on youtube which show how to correct it. They still have good overall reviews on it.

    Cool in black, sometimes i sorta crave using the futur. I think your compromise will fulfill the yearn.

    Just picked up a pretty decent looking E-2 for $13 shipped. I'm done buying up injectors for a while now until I figure out what I like.

    If you haven't used an E yet, it's a bit more aggressive than the G or I.

    I have a G, and assume it is going to be similar but probably more aggressive. This gives me a E, G, I and an M adjustable. I'm going to do a focus next month.
