It could well have, originally, wasn't sure? there are a couple of 1914's loose in the "box of plenty" so will swap that out.I think that case is supposed to have a 1914 in it.

@Duffers782 ,does the Barber Blue smell like Floid Blue (if you're familiar with that?) or Epsilon Blue Mediterranean which is a homage to Floid Blue?Been super-busy with work, upping my marathon training and general other stuff that MrsD needs sorting, so I've been a bit remiss on my SoTD stuff.
Have had some decent shaves though. All with what I would say is my favourite of all of my razors, the flat-bottomed made in England, Tech Set #27, . I loaded it with one of the Bolzano blades on Saturday and have had enjoyable shaves since. Mostly 2 pass plus pick-ups, but I used the Britannia soap and did 3 passes, just because I was enjoying the shave so much.
Today though, I saw the MWF when looking for my Tabac stick and thought I've not given it much love since Fat February, so out it came! 2 passes, sorted.

Has anyone compared the non-tallow Speick with the tallow? Behold, my last stick.
