Way to go!
Finish out the 30th and 31st with the wonderful #15.
Just hijack it and say you lost it...
Thank you Jerry. You obviously NEED one (or more). 
I don't know if it has some sort of hybrid thread, but it fits the enigmatic Fatip M4.5 x 0.75 perfectly, as well as all the standard M5 x 0.8s and UNF 10-32s.
I didn't post everyday but I DID shave with an OC everyday in October and managed to add to the collection while doing it with an awesome Schone! Last OCtober shave:
Gold schone
Astra SP (3)
PDP 63
Custom burl brush w/ maggard synth
Dickinson WH
AVON Spicy
Great way to finish up the month!

If one is good more must be better.

I think I have one coming
OC-TOBER shave 27:
For the final shave of OCtober, I wanted to end on a high note. Unfortunately I wasn't able to decide on which razor I wanted to use, so I ended up using that age old decision making technique, the coin toss. It was between the Gillette New LC and my 1910 SR. The coin decided that it would be the SR that would finish out OCtober and who am I to argue with random chance?
Razor: Gillette Single Ring
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
Brush: Omega 11137
Lather: Taylor of Old Bond Street Sandalwood
Aftershave: Brut After Shave
Additional Care:
Razorock Alum Block
T.N. Dickinson's Witch Hazel
Another wonderful shave from the SR with only one small weeper that was my fault (got careless around a zit near the side of my mustache) no real feedback from the alum. OC-TOBER was fun but I'm kind of glad it's over. Been missing my other gear and am itching to try a few new "toys".

Absolutely!
I have three aluminum ones, and the stainless steel one with the Fatip head (all of the 3¼" variety).
Nice, I have a soft spot for the ABC's.

Hi,
Tain't a coin toss any longer. It is a DDG (Digital Decision Generator) !
I suppose I can post in the BOTOC thread tomorrow. Something like:
Shave 14,475: Fasan.

Wonderful setup, beautifully photographed. Can't go wrong with a SR the fates know what they are doing.OC-TOBER shave 27:

Another beautiful Crat.
Love the Piccolo, I also like the Family Dollar Spice
The Pocket Editions are beautiful
Thanks. Even the user grade are impressive, like so many of the razors I've seen used on this thread this month.
