A couple more PAA. I seem to have found my niche with these.

Ironwood handle by Elite Razor and 26mm B11 knot by Declaration Grooming (also including a better picture of the handle from Elite Razor, as my poor photography skills don’t do it justice).

I saw that one listed, amazing handle. Proper knot for a handle like that.

Just got this one back from Rudy Vey. It’s a satin black handle from Viking Soaps that Rudy knotted for me with a 28mm ShaveMac D01 Fan.

Sweet looking handle and the D01-2 band is becoming my favorite knot. Great combo. Love it.

Here’s a better shot of it after washing it out for the bloom.

Newest addition arrived today. Paladin St. George special edition 28mm PK-47. Can't wait to take it for a test drive.

Finally broke down and bought my first Simpson. Should arrive on Monday.
It's a Alexander Simpson Trafalgar Synthetic with a T3 handle.

The razor is a Colonial Razors "The General" with a TiBam "Antique" Titanium handle.

Yep, those choices definitely fit your brushes. Good stuff. I plan on getting the Vector from Blackland this year.

Been wanting to try one of those. Good choice.

Art of Shaving Chelsea Collection. Badger, but not sure what grade. AoS doesn’t specify anywhere that I’ve seen. I suspect it’s pure. This was on the ‘bay for quite a while. Seller had ten and I waited until they were down to the last one, lol. I assumed the quality wouldn’t hold a candle to the likes of Simpson or Omega, but I liked that it was unique looking, so I went for it. Used it this morning and was pleasantly surprised. Loft is a bit shorter than I’m used to, but that didn’t bother me.

Many thanks to Larry @Snargle for these two beauties
