I just go to the markets to get some tomatoes. Next thing I know, dealers are showering me with tribute, “hey buddy-wanna buy a razor”. Don’t always score, but when I do, I do it good

Thank you, now for the impossible task of finding the matching case!

Not impossible, just doesn’t happen everyday. I wild scored this about three years ago. A DR case with a misplaced aristocrat but missing the blade banks. Don’t give up, you never know

New in my den: the Timeless bronze OC :001_wub:
I shaved with it this morning. The efficiency is as I expected. But where it surprised me is in the smoothness! From what I expected from other members, was a certain degree of roughness. Not at all!
I used to own a Timeless SS .95 that I sold when I discovered the joy of using the (2013) R41. But I missed the built-quality of Timeless. Now I have a Timeless again, but this time, the bronze suits my shaving taste best. Efficient, smooth, with enough blade feel. It will 100% become my go-to razor. For the last year I have been used to my bakelite, so I ´ll have to get use to the weight again... this new razor is built like a tank.

Nice looking razor Fabi! Every time I use my Timeless SS I think the same thing... built like a tank!
 
Weber PH.

I started in the hobby in 2014. By the time I wanted a Weber, they were discontinued. I got lucky this week - right place at the right time.

Lovely shave today with Gillette Platinum blade. It reminds me in feel to my Timeless .68. However, it is less efficient.

Received a WW2-era Canadian Tech in original canvas case. Looking forward to trying a Canadian Tech, which many people here have good things to say about. Also received my hybrid tech today from fellow B&Ber @Northstonehill so really excited to shave with that.
