Here’s a Tip...Red!
A great razor (Birth Year 1955) that I keep misplacing. I’ve had this razor for over a year and this was only its second shave. I’ve never used a Personna Lab Blue blade before and it seems to be a natural for my face in this razor. Super smooth BBS. I did nick my outer ear lobe, but I wasn’t even shaving at the time so it doesn’t count.
I haven’t used the Zaharoff soap much. Whenever I take the lid off to smell it, it just seems too powerful for first thing in the morning, when in reality, once you wet it into a lather it becomes very soft and subtle. I made a note of that in my shaving app for future reference.
Another soft and subtle scent is the Extro Vanilla AS I used. Goes well with the Zaharoff soap.
On a lighter note, this tall lofted synthetic from Dscosmetic has a lot of backbone and is great if you like painting your face vigorously by slapping it on back and forth like a beaver tail. Like those old brooms they used to use in curling.

Thanks. Totally rehabbed. Replated in platinum. Even the red tip has been repainted. Only it’s second shave since the makeover. I purchased it already done. I’m not into “collecting for display”, I use all my razors, but all I could find at the time of my red tip search were some real sad examples. It was my birth year and quarter, so I treated myself.The Red Tip is in great shape!
