@Rosseforp , quite the line up! Have a clean and cool 4th.
The Daily Double
- Thread starter Twelvefret
- Start date
All 'new' razor line up today:
Gustave Lalune Veni Vidi Vici 6/8 (first shave ever for this one)
Tony Miller 3" horsehide/linen strop
Gillette 1941 Aristocrat / Gillette Silver Blue (1)
Col Conk Amber >> RazoRock Black Label
Omega 10005 boar
splashed off with Richard's Rub personal blend
scented up with Proraso Green
This $40 1941 Aristocrat is the first Gillette TTO that will find a place in my rotation. The original owner treated it very well. The only fault is the end cap situation.

Henckels Friodur and Gillette Aristocrat
I have decided the 'Crat is a 1946. But I'm no expert.
I enjoy the small SHD badger knot quite a bit. It turns lather hoarding into a virtue.
