So I didn't count before but figured I would have enough to use a different SE Razor each day of SEptember without repeating. I know see with just 9 days to go it will be done easily and still have some that have not been used yet and need to do on video. The B Repeater is a heavy guy being all brass and silver plated. It also requires a slightly different angle than a typical Injector. I got a smooth and comfortable shave from it and glad it's in the den and has a companion Type A coming to join it. I may get a Type C eventually to complete the set of Repeaters. Have a great day everyone and let's "Kick this Pig" !

Good lad! I struggled to find blades and had to get a tray delivered from the US (funnily enough, Kentucky). I was down to my last pack of Personna and last four packs of Diane Platinum. Unable to find any Diane or Vincent branded platinums, I had to plump for the Personna to build up the stash. Looks like the thinner spined Feather Cut have been adopted as the standard for hair salons.

Williams Wednesday SEptember 22, 2021
Razor: RWNN (Razor With No Name)
Blade: Modified Gem
Brush: Stirling Synthetic
Soap: Vintage Williams
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Vintage Williams Aqua Velva
Fragrance: Nautica Blue
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1,050


No information with this razor that I have NEVER seen another of. I am told by Jeff @jmudrick it is made by Traut and Hine before their Dandy razor but that still doesn't give me a name and neither does the box. The only info on the razor is Patent Nov 14, 1911 and that matches the Patent info found ( Thanks @riverrun ) I believe I will dub it the RWNN (Razor With No Name) Have a great Wednesday everyone !

Thanks.
It all started with a gift of a G1 from Mike @mpf9ret . Unfortunately the handle broke. So I asked Jayaruh, a US forum member for a solution. This is what happened next.

That is one really nice quality repair reimagining that handle makes it unique, I actually like it better than its original one, also this razor would look good with a black handle and different colour highlights as a relief A % job. Thanks for showing us your work, Much appreciated.
