What are you waiting on to arrive...?

Thanks. I've heard they're smoother than regular super speeds.

I had one and I really couldn’t tell the difference. But it was a great shave maybe your experience will be different.

Look up the word “cheap” in the dictionary and you’ll see a picture of me.

 

I have two rockets, 1940’s style and love them. I find them to be smoother shave, but that could be due to the weight. The TTO mechanisms are silky smooth too. Think of a higher quality US made super speed. That’s a British made rocket.

It looks like a 1946-47 Aristocrat. That is a fine razor.

 

Hahaha this may be the best post on this thread!

 

You got a 1948-1950 version.

Alright, alright! Help me out here. It’s a 1948-50? The bar does not look notched. What did I miss ?

 

I bet it’s the top ring!

 

Waiting on some soap samples:

Siliski Soaps: Patchouli blend, Santa's Pipe, and Masculine Musk.

Not much info about this artisan, but the lather videos look promising. Plus I love trying lesser known soaps, since many have become favorites.


Wild West Shaving Co: Calmity Jane, James& Artimus, Pony Express, and Rose Dunn.

Wild West has excellent performance and unique scents with many to choose from. Have yet to try a scent from them I didn't like. Really looking forward to these scent profiles.

Bingo! It’s the top ring of the handle! Thank you @Jorvaljr

 

What do I have to do to find a birth year razor, the journey will never end. I have searched all over the world and still can't find it. Can someone please help?

I finally decided to get a scuttle. I chose a Georgetown Pottery G20 in Hamada & Blue. I also chose one of their seconds as they are $40.00 instead of $65.00 due to minor imperfections. I talked with a rep from Georgetown Pottery and they explained the imperfections in the seconds are usually just a few pinholes in the glaze which does not bother me at all considering it will save me $25.00. I cant wait for it to arrive!

 

I’d look for one of these techs

Too big and heavy for me. Why do guys like the big handles? I think a lighter razor gives me better control.

 

Maybe its a size issue 0.o?
