@pjgh is being very modest. I seen he had sent another member a razor, I think it was @donnie_arko ...I thought it was a brilliant gesture so after our discussion on his lanolin soap thread about Erasmic, I had just purchased a tub and thought I'd follow one good deed with another by reaching out to him and offering to send him the soap. He's trumped me though and very kindly offered to send me his PAL injector razor that he had up for sale. I have never tried one before so I gratefully accepted. A true gentleman and highlights what this forum is all about.

Yes, Paul sent me 2 Gillette heads where the plating was wearing thin so he sanded them back to their raw brass states and they were stunning, a fine gentleman if ever. I hope you enjoy using your Injector razor.
A couple more mail calls over the last few days.
One brush I have always regretted selling was the M7 I used to own, as it has a handle I really like, and I've been after a synthetic knotted version for some time.
As Simpson's have a sale on them at the moment I simply couldn't resist. Tortoiseshell is one of the colours I particularly like in the Simpsons range, so this was very much a no-brainer for me. The free tub of cream was a nice addition as well.
I also plumped for a King C Gillette razor in order to see what the current hype is about. It looks to be very nicely made and, at £13 it's an absolute steal.
Finally, a Karve C OC baseplate and head. I got this through his amazing generosity of a friend who gave me a voucher that covered the majority of the cost. I can't wait to give it a try and see how it compares to the B OC plate I already have.

You must be running out of space in your house by now
You wouldn't believe it.

A lovely looking brush and I would have had one if Steve had done a callaboration with the groom room or someone else over here, the shipping and taxes killed it for me, shame.
enjoy. P.

Steve was selling a few direct as well IIRC, could be worth messaging him?

Cheers J but I've just done my dough on my buik order of proline blades, one will surface on day on BST and I can rip the knot out and stick a nice two band fan in it!

It's taken a while but my ten boxes of Schick Proline P.30 blades have arrived from Japan.
With the other ten boxes I already have I should have a lifetimes supply and never need to worry about the blades being discontinued or going up in price and buying in bulk also makes the unit price very reasonable. One happy Blademonkey!
Could you please PM me the source of this? Since Rakuten Global is no more, it's became noticeably harder to get something out of Nippon.
