    'Angled' DE Razors

    Sorry @Bogeyman maybe I was a tad vague...but was referring to the MILF shaver comments and @Boycie being needed to appear on this thread. Just pointing another 'option' that makes @Boycie seem quite mild...and I only found that other forum because I'm into shooting sport as well as wet shaving.

    'Angled' DE Razors

    Hmmm...whatever you do...don't go to The Snipershide, and find Dirty D's work. Usually hiding in 'The Bear Pit'...Motivational Pic's. You have been warned! Yeah, I'm a shooter too. Indoor, rimfire benchrest. Lot of fun and no need to roll around on the floor.

    Drying soap??

    I am heering what you are saying. I don't intend to flounder around with any soap.

    Christmas smell?

    Maybe Stirling 'Christmas Eve'? "With a base blend of pine, fir, evergreen and mistletoe mixed with top notes of warm vanilla, cranberry and seasonal spices, this scent is sure to put you in the Christmas spirit". Hmmm, I like Stirling soap...might just have to get this one too.

    Folding Knife Recommendations

    Am I allowed to put in a link? Admin please remove if I'm doing wrong. I've bought from these guys before and they are good to deal with. https://www.blademaster.co.nz/shop/Shop+by+Brands/Svord/-SV133.html

    Folding Knife Recommendations

    Prices? OK, they also sell on this site (link below) in NZ. Don't forget that prices are in $NZD (which is the Pacific Peso) so do a currency convert to get UK price equivalent. UK folks can sign up to buy/sell on there too. I don't know for sure, but I would think that direct from Svord would...

    Well...you know the way it goes...get both. You know you really want too. What colour do you like, or is it the wooden handled jobbies? Can't wait to see what one you get!

    Folding Knife Recommendations

    How long can you wait for delivery? Because these are probably 'different' to what's in the UK (Made in NZ). They were made from old straight razors years ago, and just re-purposed. These days, I don't know about the steel used...but they would be surely legal in UK? Plus, you can support the...

    DR Harris soaps...a forgotten champion?

    I haven't seen much about DR Harris soaps (or maybe looked in the wrong places)...but I feel they are under-rated by many. I only have the 'Arlington' and safe to say it's not 'glitzy'. No fancy labels, nothing flashy, no strong scent that lasts all day...but it's as tough as old boots (in a...

    Bowl Latherers, a shaving soap question

    Face lathered for about 55 years, but then recently tried a Yaqi shaving bowl (I do have an 'Old Spice' mug but it's a tad small for my 28mm brush to zoom around in. I bought that mug just for the aesthetics it adds to my razor/brush/soap collection. I will use it once I've killed my...

    Shaving Bowl Recommendation

    I bought a Yaqi shaving bowl. It's my first 'real' shave bowl as before I just used a wee bowl I made years ago when I had time for potting. So I can only compare against my own made bowl or the Yaqi. The Yaqi wins! Makes a great lather, but it is ceramic so it has some nice weight to it...

    Merkur Futur vs clone

    OK...here you go...and it's a rare Gold one too. You don't find many Gold ones in the wild. I have a Q1 and they are a nice shaver. Had a Slim, and a Fatboy Executive...sold them both, but kept the Black Beauty. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/154536974181?hash=item23fb1f1765:g:RToAAOSwSgtg9ckB

    RFB cap query.

    Just found a Gillette NEW LC locally, and not too dear. If I'm reading all this correctly then no harm for me to use that LC cap? Thank you guys for all that info...really is much appreciated.

    Gillette NEW Short Comb set (?)

    Thanks @TobyC well they all look the same as mine. I shall cease bothering about that then...but will continue to sort out the RFB.

    Gillette NEW Short Comb set (?)

    Thanks guys. No, not trying to find a flaw in it. I was curious about it as I have been looking online for a cap to suit my RFB, and a spare for my SC. A dealer had some caps including the 'normal' SC cap and he said that the case and razor didn't belong together (he asked for photos of what cap...

    Gillette NEW Short Comb set (?)

    I have this lovely wee NEW SC. Shaves sweetly, looks nice too. The case is a tad grubby but scared to clean it in case I make it worse. Anyway...apparently the cap is not the 'correct' cap for a SC, and that the actual razor is not correct for the case. I have read the correct cap for the SC had...

    'Bitza' razors (what do I have here?).

    I have over the years found a few razors that are Bitzas (bits of this, and bits of that). The 7-O-Clock baseplate is really just a UK Gillette NEW LC? The other baseplate is the usual UK Gillette NEW LC? Then we have the UK RFB (which is a UK Gillette NEW LC variant?). Also shown as the...

    Suggestions for new brush

    Yes...an Omega S-brush would do it (fibre with boar like qualities). Never had one...but might be a suitable candidate.

    Other forums?

    I'm Blackie on P&C. I'll say 'Hello' to you over there too.

    Suggestions for new brush

    Yes...get the Yaqi 26mm Rainbow Pony knot. It's the only brush you will need (they really are a nice brush).
