Nice charge, congratulations.

Thank you!
It took a while to source these blades, and they pretty much complete my vintage blade stash.

New (to me) 1957 Gillette Blue Tip Razor in excellent condition. Bought along with a Gillette red case from 1949-1951. The images of the razor did not look that great. However after a warm bath in dishwashing detergent the razor came out looking near mint. There is practically no paint loss on the tip.

Nice. That Gillette looks new to anyone!

Have had a few good scores this month, just getting around to posting.

The first score was a Made in England Fat Handle Tech. I love the shave of my Prewar Fat Handle Tech, so wanted to try the version made in England. And the second score was getting some Club CBL soap from a new soap maker, CBL Soap. His soap is outstanding, I highly recommend it. He has excellent scents & the performance is top tier. This particular soap is an exact match scent-wise to Pinaud Clubman. I know, right? How great is that?!!!!!

They assimilated me. I got the Dovo and a 3" English Bridle leather strop at 40% off. Resistance was futile.
