February 2017 Aquisitions


Glad you like them. I would have said they were my favorite blades until last week.

I tried the Gillette 7 o'clock super stainless', green packet. They are very smooth and sharp. Worth giving them a try.

I hope you are keeping well mate.

Thanks, I will try a pack and see what i think......always willing to seek out quality blades in my quest for perfection! well thank you, as I hope you are.
 
So far (more in the mail):

Maggard MR14 handle.
Maggard Orange Menthol soap.
Fine American Blend soap. (and the empty TOBS below it to fit the puck).
Antjies Rooibos & Rosemary soap.
Soap Commander Fortitude soap.

Such a shame maggards don't post aftershave across the pond. As they have some great products.
 
Fine Snakebite and a small quantity (circa 40mL) of Myrsol Blue arrived today. Will have a quick whiff of the Myrsol soon and will probably try out the Fine a little later.
 
Funny how sometimes your day goes. Missed the bus so got back from work late, too late to walk home from the town as I have to be there later for school pick up. Having time to kill I went in the local antique shop. Never usually lucky to find anything. Sat there on a shelf a nice condition all bar some soap gunk sat a razor with no price on. Asked, she rang the owner, £5. Snapped it up ! Now have what I think, someone will correct me if I'm wrong, a English Aluminium LD Paperclip Rocket ! Very pleased !!!!


Pictures to follow as I need to give it a light clean first.




Further clean needed, but a fairly nice example. It was gucked up and a Gillette Blue Blade was still in which had an E1 code. Razor its self isn't coded. Smooth ad n to the doors and even gaps. I'm a happy man.
