What are you waiting on to arrive...?

My best picture of a razor to date.

 

Bought this new "Viper" boar brush from Yaqi just recently, the handle is just marvelous in that sparkling glitter in the deep green with white clouded wisps. Feels good in the hand and now I'm going to do use my break in method to bring it to a nice level of enjoyment should be good in 2-3 days for the first shave. Cleaned it with shampoo 5 times and lost about 15 hairs which is normal for a boar? This one has a slight boar funk but we will see how it smells as the days go on.
I just put it in the fridge for the first 20-24 hrs & tomorrow will take it out for a few more cleanings and will dry off with the towel and will do that approximately 3 times and should one great boar brush for many years.

Have some great shaves!

 

That's a great looking brush!

 

cool brush Ron..

Thank you very much.

 

Nice set!

 

Thanks.

 

Elite Razor Ivory over Pastel Swirl 24mm Boar Brush

 

That's a steal. Did the seller just feel generous, or not know what they had?

 

I’m not sure why they sold it so low. I’m just happy to score it.

 

Great deal either way. You don't see many with cases, and the one's you do are far worse for the wear than your's. Congratulations!

 

Thank you very much.

 

cool set Angelo.looks in nice shape..

 

cool new brush Jim..

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Thank you very much. I should get it in the mail by Tuesday.

 

1934 Aristocrat arrived today. Much better than I expected, and I expected near flawless.
Has four of the original blades wrapped in the blade bank, had one loaded in the razor. But for a bit of soapscum under the corner teeth she shined as you may have seen above.
Can't wait to give her a go tonight and compare her to Dangles !
