Acquisitions - December 2021



Received a couple of brush handles and knots today.
Boti 26mm Stump handle & 26mm Synthetic Fan & 24mm 3 band SHD synthetic
DS Cosmetic Blue 24mm handle and Arctic White knot



The Zenith handle nees a little more work to get the knot fitting. The other two are prepared to be set.
Both the Boti knots feel great and the tips on the fan knot are really plush. The white DSC knot was a bit underwhelming and might be swapped at a later date. Much less dense than I expected but I'll set it and see how it performs.
 
The Vulfix Mayfair (403) is also available in a badger/boar mix with the same quality turned handle as the other members of the London series. I managed to find one a couple of months ago
 
This Beauty Arrived Today All The away From Argentina,
I was actually Sceptical whether it would arrive damage free but it’s perfect.
I was told this is New Old Stock & never used
whether this is true i don’t know but it certainly looks new.
The bottom line is i was buying it new or not.
This is my second Fasan in two weeks & probably my last
Stunning looking razor in my eyes & hopefully it shaves well.
 
That's a real beauty.
 
I went onto Connaught's to get some blades for the Ever-Ready 1912 I picked up.
Whilst I was on there, I thought it would be rude to only order some blades!
As I've already got the American blend A/S I popped the matching soap in and a few samples.
Expect to see the main ones tomorrow!

The service has again been superb and delivered in double-quick time too.
