@pjgh didnt want to derail the sotd thread, wanted to ask how does that wilkinson sword sticky razor compare to the wilkinson sword flip top de razor?
SOTD : Saturday 2 July - Friday 8 July 2022.
Homelike Start 2 (1.70)* Gillette Silver Blue Maseto Finest Westman Gerês* Tuff aftershave *The Start 2 is on loan from a member from other forum and the soap is another sample from him too. Second shave with The Start 2, this time with the 1.70 baseplate. Not as smooth or comfortable as the...www.theshavingroom.co.uk
yea the sticky sounds like a nice razor seen @Mike Smart praise it tooChalk and cheese ...
The Sticky is a VERY fine piece of kit easily on a par with the Gillette TTO if not exceeds it. The flip top head is a cheapo, but does pay some homage to the Ken Grange aesthetic of the Sticky.
It's a really good piece of kit and a classic piece of shaving equipment.
nice, how do you find it?I've got a WS Flip Top razor, well I've 'borrowed' it from my dad.

got the wilkinson sword blue stick havent used it yet thoughYeah, the current LEA stick is very good! For a veg-based formula, I'd say you just wouldn't know you were missing anything. Certainly one of my favourites.
I also like the old tallow formula LEA which was also sold under the Vie-Long brand. That, and the now discontinued Wilkinson Sword stick is really good ... in fact, the vintage Cuticura soap I'm using at the moment is a dead-ringer for the Wilkinson Sword stick and I wonder if they simply bought it and continued selling it. I think my vintage soap is from the '60s.
Since you have a mountain of Arko, if you fancied a slightly different toilet cleaner scent than grab a stick of Derby.
