Thank you Graeme, the razor is quite uncommon with the large handle, and the same head as the 77/88's but Chrome plated. The brush the smallest knot I own at 18mm.

I have one of yon finest knots in a 20mm fan awaiting a handle although the handle will be some time off. They're damn good knots but I do like my boar as well. I must say it looks bigger than 18mm in the picture.
I've never seen a razor quite like it, sir. Quite the thing, so it is!

Yes Dick, no need to grate the Turkish pish, simply leave few days unwrapped in the open air.
Make an emulation of lavender extract and a bit of water and let stinko seat in it for a day, take out and let it dry.
Can't bin this, spent £0.70 on it !! as I am a tightwad that open tubes of Ingram and scrape every atom I must be able to get this stick usable.

revisited my gem ocmm tonight and id forgotten what an absolutely wonderful shave it gives. i bought it a few years ago from a member on here (man of leisure) and used it exclusively for a few months, and i thought i was never going to use anything else ever again it was that good. its going straight back into my rotation now, a fantastic shaver.

Cowbrough Travel Razor - Gillette 365 [2]
Hot Rinse & Cold Rinse
Pinaud Clubman After Shave
Face Lathered
Two Pass - WTG & XTG
Reputed to be a vicious vampire, actually I found this travel razor to be absolutely and perfectly smooth. Run with a Gillette 365, which is in itself a very well kept secret, the angle was obvious (to me) and the blade did its thing.
I rank this as an excellent shave.

One too many shaves for the Sputnik, but managed to finish off the tub of TOBS. Face a little raw now maybe time for some balm.
