What are you waiting on to arrive?

Hi Russ. Yet to try them. As @donnie_arko has mentioned, positive reviews for them out there so thought I'd give them a try. Opted for 100 from RBC for £12 delivered rather than 5 from Exec Shaving for £5 delivered.

I bought mine from Maggards during their Black Friday sale with another packet of blades.

It was a really sorry looking package.

My 2020 buying hiatus starts tomorrow. Just in case there's a bladepocalypse during that period, I thought I best add the following to the den:

100 Czech Tiger Platinum
100 Gillette Platinum
100 Gillette Silver Blue
100 Treet Platinum
100 Gillette 7 O'clock Super Platinum (Black)
100 Shark Platinum
50 Gillette Winner
50 Gillette Perma-Sharp
50 Supermax Blue Diamond Titanium
40 Personna PTFE Injector
20 Schick B-20 Injector
30 Schick P-30 AC

Yes, I already have some of these blades in volume but I can sleep easy now!

Yea, that should keep you going till about june ish, need more for autumn and wintertime. I'm the same I have a shipload of blades as well need to live to 150 to have a chance of using them up.

My "had to have" but totally unnecessary purchase this week is a bottle of Hai Karate Eastern Spice. Bought it totally blind having never smelled the original Hai Karate never mind this version. At £18 though ive definitely made worse purchases. I'll probably post a thread in the aftershave section when it arrives.

QShave Parthenon V2. I watched some good reviews of this one of which was on the razor emporium channel and at less than £20 (and by PayPal) on AliExpress I thought it was worth a punt. It might be a while before it arrives though.

Been a good week for me with with my Hai Karate (Will post a thread in the aftershave section shorty with my thoughts on it) and now another impulse buy from eBay .

Snagged some vintage Old Spice Fresh Lime shaving cream, not sure of the year, possibly 70s/80s. Again I'll post pictures when it comes.

Almost bought some 60s Palmolive too. There is a listing for Lime Palmolive shaving cream but I managed to resist the temptation. If anyone is in contact with PaulH on YouTube I bet he would be interested. It would be a brilliant thing for him to do a video on.

I've tried the new Czech Tiger Platinum. They're not dissimilar to Astra SP, very sharp and very smooth, a very pleasant blade.

Discovered last night that Barrister and Mann now have an official UK stockist (Slickboys.co.uk). Consequently, I've now got tubs of Bay Rum and Cheshire on the way.
