Enjoy your shave.
Cool looking razor Dan. Don’t look vintage, but I also have no idea what I am looking at. It does look very effective though.
Enjoy!

Well… it appears that I have Covid. Of course every illness seems to be Covid nowadays. Only thing I can tell is that I have a fever and feel like crap. I figure that it’s my yearly flu that I normally get but, oh well. This too shall pass.
What handle is that ?
Some travel set!Still in!

no shave today
Oh my goodness, you're all into March?!?
Much love for my restrainers! I am going unfettered in 2024 for a few reasons. I couldn't make it... More accurately I didn't want to put in the energy.
Cheering you all on. Keep up the good work! Enjoy what you have!!!

I think it’s the Mühle Rytmo R89. Wooden handle.
Absolutely Guido !
The wooden Rytmo Handle is my favorite.
Unless we were talking brushes, that there would be the Spanish Shaver's limited edition by Semogue

Sorry to hear it. I hope you feel better soon!
Sorry to hear that. Get well soon!
Halfway through my shave and it dawned on me, it’s Micromatic Monday! And I had plans! Doh! 
. Mañana.
Back to my Tech, at least I got shave 485 on my Feather.

Day 4, 12.9% complete
Preshave: Hot washcloth
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat (Tallow)
Brush: Yaqi 24mm synthetic cashmere
Razor: GC.84 SB, Ti Handle, Astra SP #4
Bowl: Turkish copper
Post-shave: Nivea Balm
Back to MWF again for Monday. I let the Game Changer autopilot do most of the work, for a very easy DFS.
Still can't decide whether the Ti or Al version of the Windrose 85mm handle suits me best, but that's fine-tuning.
Get well soon, @Bsamps.

Summary. Beautiful gear for beautiful results. A superb shave. Maybe my forever combination if pressed to choose. Compared to earlier shaves with the GSB this was the best I’ve yet.

Enjoy your shave!
Thanks mate! The leather bag is not very cheap but I think worth the money. It‘s build to last a long time and can carry a long handle safety razor. I really enjoy it and it gives me some Sunday feeling even on stressy business trips.
It’s an Above The Tie Slant.They went out of business recently.
