Unlathered I already like it a lot. Nice backbone, a little scratch without being prickly, almost soft. I think it will improve with break in. I am currently using a Maseto Manchurian 2 Band Silvertip and the feel is almost identical now and the Maseto is broken in. (My break in process is to just use them).
What are you unpacking/ opening today, show pics or video, we love pics

I have been trying to stay away from the Bay but I cannot resist. First package is a P4 Gillette Black Handle Superspeed. The price was right for me and it just needs a really good clean. All works fine and should be a great everyday user.
Mail Call Number 2.
A Shark long handled DE safety razor and two tucks of Shark Platinum blades. Getting in early for Shark Week 2024. For a new razor I thought the price was fair. And it came with free post.
Mail Call Number 3.
A near new Parker 66R. It has not had much use of any. The seller still had the box which was great and the plastic insert that the razor originally came in. Just had India on the base plate. I bought another Parker a little while ago and I have not even tried it yet. I need to stay off the bay.
Mail Call Number 4.
A cased English Gillette Junior Aristocrat. Still has a Wilkinson Sword stainless blade in it. Both the case and the razor need a good clean but again for me, the price was right. I really like these razors and they shave very well IMHO.

Antique, ivory three-piece shaving stick holder.
Yaqi stand, brass handle, beast hybrid head, and mysterious space (3 band) silvertip badger brush.
Couple items came today. Some tea to arrive later this afternoon.
So I’ve been on a Blackland Kick I grabbed a Satin Blackbird with stand, OG and Lite plates from a member of B&B. They were crazy (nice) enough to throw in 100 Astra Greens and a Century brush with a Maggards Boar Knot.
Also got the Quarter moon knot for my new Chisel & Hound handle.
