Matt, a display brush I picked up in Italy - real boar, in theory usable (by André at least

Shaving on the cheap today. $15 for the razor (still good for another 130 years or so), hand me down mug, $15 brush, MWF soap (would last months if I used it every day), home made aftershave.

That's a beautiful razor Arne!!!
As a I was shaving with this ultra-hollow #14 razor this morning, I was actually wondering if I ever had a better shave than that.
Sadly the scales are plastic. I'll have to rescale it.

Great restoration Ian and those scales are incredible! And good to see Cade soap, you've reminded me to look for mine.
Today cleaned up this very hollow Johan Engström 6/8 (but was afraid to remove the original painted wood scales) and honed her up on Shapton glass to 8k, finishing with Wakasa Jnat. Smooooooth:
