What are you waiting on to arrive...?

My Ted Pellas came shortly before I went on vacation, so I packed the 1912 in its little wooden box as a travel razor. Then, when I got back, I went on another buying spree...

Another ball-end Tech (but no logo on the cap) in an incorrect clam-shell case (no matter...it'll be another travel set). If it shaves as well as my other, I'll keep it & give the first to my son.

A Schick "66", 'cuz I don't have one.

*groan* An F4 Toggle. I see it as an investment for my middle grandson. Unless it works for me, then he can pry it out of my cold, dead hand.

 

Everyone should have one.

 

Well, I *had* to get it...I mean, I've got a gold textured blue-handle, so it's only fitting.

 

Another beauty for that awesome collection Guy.

 

Beautiful Guy!

 

Thanks Gent!

 

J.A.Henckels $13.50. Fixer upper.

 

From France.
French "H.G.". It looks like an Aluminum handle. $6.61.

 

Hope it polishes up well. I enjoy seeing the rough ones come back to service.

 

I ordered these late last week. RazoRock DE1, RazoRock Mission (head only) and Omega Synthetic brush

 

I WANT ONE OF THOSE, VERY BADLY.
Lucky you, please allow us to live vicariously through your reviews.

 

Just received my order from IB. RR BlackHawk with Kia Pink blades, and RR Santal Royale soap and AS. Razor looks perfect, soap and AS have more oud scent than sandalwood but I like that too. A little more woodsy, sweeter and stronger than the Figaro Monsieur.

 

Threw a low bid on a triangle slot US Tech and got it for $7. It has some grime but minimal brassing and should clean up nicely.

 

Posted a very short recap in today's SOTD.

 

Not 100% sure why...but I decided that spending $10 on this micro "Laguiole" was what I wanted to do this gloomy Tuesday morning.
Specs:
"Walnut Wood Handle
256 Layer (1095/15N20) Steel Blade Oil Tempered to 58-60 MEASUREMENTS:
BLADE LENGTH 1.6"
HANDLE LENGTH 2.3"
TOTAL LENGTH 3.9"
Handle material: Walnut Wood , Brass Bolster
Pattern: Wind & twist pattern, File-work
Weight 25g"

So folded up it will be 2.3 inches long and if it cuts 'ok' it'll be fun enough to attach to my keychain as a somewhat different EDC knife.
I have rather low expectations about the quality but thought it looked good enough to at least take a gamble at it and for my cutting needs 'opening a box now and then and cutting off a piece of string' it might just do fine. If not it will be a christmas gift to some sucker

Seller is in Georgia so hopefully I'll see it next week.





and, hey, it comes with a leather sheath

 

A nice looking jnife

 

Thanks, worse case I have one Christmas gift sorted by giving it to someone

My first almost 1/2 a hundred blade purchase.
At 35¢ per blade shipped I couldn't pass them up.
I can feed Chicks to my Bunny for a year!
