What are you waiting on to arrive...?

Wow, that 1926 Milady is a stunner!

 

@jimjo1031 suggested some of these to me for pen refilling


I also had a bid on these, with apparently a huge reserve. Nobody else wanted them, so the seller offered them to me for the base bid. It works out, even with shipping, to about $5.25 per razor, so I don't see it as a loss.

 

very nice.................

 

Nothing fancy just a military issue Rubberset ...

Sorry for the terrible picture.

 

And how does one know that it is a military issue brush? is there something on the bottom of the brush or a reference I can find out about?

 

A brand new vintage Cristiano briar and JRR Tolkien's tobacco of choice. Going to enjoy a calming Stoic bit of pipe while Modding. A gift from Chris @Bama Samurai . He got the same set up for himself so we can enjoy a smoke together while being 1,100 miles apart.

 

Parts to build my first AR15.

 

Remember, the barrel points away from you. Sometimes the machining isn't clear

 

The upper is already built so two pens and done on the upper.

 

From what I gather, these were manufactured for the military and couldn't be sold publicly due to the omission of sterilized that was mandatory on all publicly sold shaving brushes due to the potential of contracting anthrax. Sterilization of brushes was mandatory after the early 1920's; hence you can narrow down date of a brush whether it is marked "sterilized" or not.

 

I ordered a jar (new plastic) of Lime from Mike's Natural Soap.

 

Again it's happening - another four soaps from River Valley Trading in Durban, South Africa on the way here:

1x RVT The Cabin SS
1x RVT Dark Lime SS
1x RVT Midnight Lime SS
1x RVT Lemon Cream SS

Where will I put everything? Lollllll

 

Rick, you are most welcome.

Here's the both together...so I am waiting on the shipping as well to begin.

 

Coming soon in the mail

A blend of essential oils of lavender and lime. The unique blend creates an aroma of floral and citrus scents that lingers a little longer post-shave.

 

Waiting on a vintage velvet razor box with a Gillette tech. I really wanted the box to complete my velvet razor

 

Veddy nice!!

 

I ordered another shavette and some blades.

 

I took a chance not knowing what it was ....


Well it appears to be a Rotbart 5031

I've wanted one, but always seems high in price or terrible condition.

 

Most of those Rotbarts are peculiarly constructed. If yours is like mine you'll find a plated brass top cap, a horrible Zamak bottom plate/guard, and a handle with a Zamak neck and plated brass from neck down. Yours has a different handle, perhaps it will turn out completely different, anxious to see.
