This £2 special has also arrived from China. Why buy this I hear you ask? Well, I now have a new 'Fat Handle Tech' using this head and my recently sanded Yaqi nickel handle (thanks for the advice @Tony'schin ). I think @donnie_arko will appreciate this:

I was going to say good luck with your shave on Friday. Somehow I don't think you'll need it with the GC.....A smooth operator that one !!!
You've got me thinking about whether or not I should try a few of my other unused razors first...I was going to say good luck with your shave on Friday. Somehow I don't think you'll need it with the GC.....A smooth operator that one !!!
Will I ruin my future experiences with them? Maybe I'm overthinking it!

Yep. I like that a lot. So much so for a few seconds I thought about getting another Tech! I really shouldn't though....

Looks great. How does it shave? Think I might have to buy the same set up
I haven't been sharing the bits and bobs that come in. However, this arrived yesterday and is a stunner. I think it's a 1956 Aristocrat Deluxe. It has a little plate loss inside and where the handle joins the bottom plate. Apart from that it appears unused, which is strange. Most importantly it shaves like a dream.

Is that soap? It looks like it could spread on bread (or toast, the choice is yours). It looks incredible!

I've had a busy week...
Well, in ordering & buying shaving gear, otherwise it's been pretty sedate.
From Ebay, 200 Treet Blades & Lord Razors. From Dambiro, the Intesa Avocado Cream, Palmolive Menthol & 4 Omega Brushes, and 2 RSC Balms from Savers. The razors, RSC Balms and 2 of the Omega Brushes are for two of my friends who I am making a shaving kit for.
A quick delivery from Dambiro who also included a Intesa balm tube for free.
I've not read anything about this particular cream, but it sounded interesting so I gave it a go.
2 Omega S Brushes, and a few Omega Boars
Razors & Balms for shaving kits for my friends
The new Omega boars next to my well used 80265 for reference. The white 11819 has one of the better handles, it's actually quite ergonomic. The yellow and white 10075's handle feels a bit cheap, the lower white part rotates around. Seem to be pretty decent brushes though, look forward to finding out how the perform once they break in.

Snap! My Game Changer also arrived from Shave Lounge, excellent service from them as usual. I also recieved my Craving Shave brush from America:
This brush handle is lovely by far the nicest I own. My rubbish photography skills don't really capture how amazing the shimmer and swirling is on it:

definitely soap. But I know what you mean . Very best ingredients, no nasties and smells amazing. Not going to use until I get back from holiday next week but hope it performs as good as it looks!

On the list to try. The Game Changer is probably going to jump the queue!
