In a moment of madness:



Slightly cheaper than the Personna 74 blades I bought two years ago, these blades - with shipping and import charges - cost me £2.71.
Each.

A hand-painted pottery mug that I picked up today at a local thrift store for $1.49. The bottom of the bowl has texture, so lather building should be easy when I take the mug on our weekend driving trips to B&Bs.

My Seygus arrived and I gave the head a clean and quick polish with MAAS. I did not bother polishing the handle as I am going to let it develop some patina anyway. I have always liked the idea of an OC Seygus but this came up on eBay at reasonable price and I was the only bidder.
