This, that I can‘t afford

Masamune Nodachi Open Comb Safety Razor by Tatara

The Masamune Nodachi Razor is suited to the more experienced shaver who likes a closed shave. It is especially suited to those with a stronger bristle growth. All Tatara products are hand made in Portugal using CNC machined AISI 303 high grade stainless steel. They are sandblasted and hand...

Interestingly I saw the prices of these on the website a few days ago and they were cheaper. The Nodachi was £130. The prices seem to have gone up by enough for our 10% off code to take them back to the original price.
 
I am really surprised to find myself at a point where I am no longer interested in DE razors and DE blades....after using the AC setups.
My wishlist has changed due to that...
Straight Razor (I've always wanted to shave successfully with a shave-ready straight)
A good but affordable straight razor preferably wedge to quarter hollow. I longed for a buttery smooth edge...
Soaps from the UK
Signature Soaps
Twa burd Soaps
Soaps from the US
Too many...
Brush
Enough...(for now)
Blades
DE...enough

There are two things I would love to get my hands on

A Jar of La Toja Manantiales shave soap - long discontinued so unlikely this will ever materialise
A Gillette "psycho" with original key. I was close once to getting hold of a complete box (10 razors, 1 key) in an eBay auction. The seller didn't realise what he was had an and listed it incorrectly - until, that is, someone contacted him and told him, and abracadabra the listing was gone.

These are my shave stash ambitions. but I'm long since resigned to never getting my mitts on either!
 

Love Goutal perfumes. Not great longevity but so thought out and refined

I'm with you on that. I remember seeing it in El Corte Ingles department stores in Spain - must be about 15 years ago? Just before I started shaving properly, unfortunately - I only recall it because of the unusual packaging - if I knew then what I know now - I'd have bought an armful. I.
 
That is an interesting list.

Since I got my two Feather Artist Club razors, SS and DX, my appetite for new razors has dried out a lot......

Karve looks interesting, perhaps a year ago it would have been on my radar.

ATT, I'm a big fun and I have 4 completed sets but I won't buy another ATT razor.

Colonial General, I have the SS V1, the V2 looks interesting but I don't like the new handle, I think it looks awful lol

Game Changer, I have the CC plate and that's enough for me.

ARISTOCRAT, not really into vintage razors and at current prices, not chance I'll get one either.

So I guess my wishlist is empty atm with the exception of a couple of AS that I'm running out.
 
Am on the lookout for a copper Above the tie Windsor top cap.
I have all the other parts in copper. Am using stainless Windsor top cap at present.
Also looking for a timeless steel .68 sb base plate as the .95 is too aggressive for me.
Would like to try charcoal goods hammered finish, level 2.
Can’t justify price at the minute- that could change! Haha
