Safety Razor Acquisition Thread.

I think that this is my eleventh week wet shaving, and these are my ninth and tenth razors.

Can we get this guy a B&B RAD Achievement award???

And… eleven if you count the Gillette 7 o’clock Sterling…

Was I lying to you or myself?

Got another razor in the mail today. It is nice, but not as nice as I had hoped.

I am going to make an effort to dial back any online purchases to razors that are closer to mint or NOS condition.

I will still look at garage sales, estate sales, and flea markets for cheap user condition razors.

Another for the British collection. 1949 Aristocrat Junior replated by BRG. Chris's picture was better than I could do on the bottom so that's his picture. Really mild yet excellent result!

Charcoal goods gen 3 level 2.

I picked up this gold 1910 ABC shell double ring for a good deal from an offer I made. The plating isn't great, but I planned on getting it replated anyway. I love how these old thin cap ABC's shave. I have a 1914 ABC but this one is my oldest razor now.

My RAD kicked in after many years
Parker 91r on the way
Muhle r41 on the way

Thinking about pulling the trigger on the Fatip Piccolo special edition
Also want a Wilkinson Sword butterfly ( as Its the first razor I recall seeing my dad use)

Got these charcoal goods razors recently and got some time to use some brasso and Polish them followed by an ultrasonic clean.

Today’s mail call

 

[wetshaver233]

Two weeks ago I've talked to a good friend of mine who also enjoys shaving and he told me about the infamouse Yuma razor. He said that he owns a few dozens and he bought them dirt cheap a few years ago and he insisted that I should try it and he also didn't want me to pay anything. Today when I opened the package and this is what I found inside.

Are Yuma razors supposed to duplicate/replicate? I'm really confused!

They look like a replica of a 1904. I have the modern Merkur replica of the 1904. I use it pretty often.
