The razor on the picture is a good looking combination. What type of handle is this on the mat TR OC head?
Best Regards
Marco
Thank you for the answer. Seems like the head and handle are a perfect match.Thanks!
The handle is a brushed stainless Triad Aristocrat.

It all depends on the actual value and what the goods are.

The sender needs to declare the value so it all depends on what they put on it, but of course customs can stop and inspect any item.
Second shave w/ the O5
Also got to try V53 of @grooming_dept 's upcoming soap and it was incredibly even better than V51 (less thirsty and even easier to lather) - that I already thought was stellar. Very impressed.
Razor: Gillette Executive Gold Adjustable Fat Boy (F 1) 1960.
Blade: Kai Stainless Steel (2)
Brush: Rubberset 400 Unmarked w/Omega Pro 49 knot
Soap: Route 66 Barbershop Hop
Aftershave: Old Spice Fresh Lime
Outstanding near BBS shave tonight with products I really enjoy. The Route 66 is a nostalgic stroll down memory lane with this light, clean, slightly sharp powdery fragrance. Bright orange zest, mingled with hints of aromatic spices reminiscent of a splash of aftershave in a traditional barbershop. This soap is as slick as slick can be. I don't believe I've used a shave soap that is more slick than a Route 66 shave soap. I think I could paint a house with this brush. This is truly a lather monster. The finish with Old Spice Fresh Lime was the icing on the cake.

So in the spirit of our some of our greatest explorers like Douglas and Clint, with brush and razor in one pocket, and camera in the other, I ventured out to brave the perilous wilds of territories just known as Mrs. Pickled's gardens.

Blackbird ~ Doug Korn DK7 with Envy White ~ Stirling Gentleman
After overcoming the arctic and completing my arduous eighth mile trek to the mailbox and back, my gear needed unloading, and a celebretory nip needed to be poured.
***Hope everybody understands that I took these pictures in advance, and am not drinking Makers Mark out of a jelly jar at 6:30 in the morning. At least not on this particular morning. [emoji1]
Great post! Your efforts are appreciated. The brush looks stunning!
My Blackbird has left Chicago this morning, fingers crossed it arrived before Christmas.
I'll be partaking in a single malt or two tonight, cheers.
Thank you, Sir. Congrats on the razor, it is one of the greats. I know we hear it all the time, but this one really did ruin me for buying DE's. Like stopped me in my tracks.
Merry Christmas!
Indeed it does!The red proraso stuff smells so good!
