I am expecting a vintage lather catcher wooden handle today from @DaltonGang . I will be making measurements and then duplicating it. It is about 25% smaller than the handles I recently made. They will be more authentic reproductions.
That is funny. I went to PAA and put an order in for the new Starling SE, then I exited the site without completing the transaction. I was so tempted. Hey, as long as money does not change hands, you have not bought. Trades are still on the table as far as I am concerned.
I have some B 20 injector blades on the way from Andrews Shave Shop. Going to put them to work in my repeating razors next month. I'll see how they work out.
I am the first stop on the Wedge Pass Around over at TOST. @twhite is sending his Heljestrand razor and a couple of wedges along with his Allego Stropping Machine for ease of honing. It is out for delivery, and I am stoked. I will be using it tomorrow and all of next week.
A couple razors and brushes ... Made an offer that was accepted. Got an Easy Rider Schick I was looking for.
Got a 1920s (1921-1928) Gillette Old Type Cap & Guard (universally threaded) factory nickel revamp from Razor Emporium coming in the mail. Gonna stick that on my EJ knurled handle. Should be here in the next couple days. Also have a 1964 (J-3) Gillette Super Speed Flair Tip coming in the mail. In good/great condition, not a mark on it and no plating loss. Should be here in the next couple weeks.
