Timing is terrible! I’m expecting a jar of Martin de Candre Fougere today. It’s terrible timing because I’m on my way to St. Louis for the weekend, so I have to wait to get it & use it.
 
@charliemilano, I can’t send you a PM. For some reason I get a message that Says I am unable to send you a PM. I’ve never had this problem before. Please send me a PM & we can work out the details.

Almost there. That is indeed a dent in the top.

Hello there, Gillette RFB! I am unsure which set this is. 88 had this case, but a different handle and baseplate.

Top cap is super shiny.

Hollow handle.

That plural “Numbers” is throwing me off. She’s in great shape, though!

Maybe a 77? I'm not really an expert in RFB identification, though.

Nice razor, no matter what you call it.
 
I have been on a bit of binge recently so here goes!

IMG_1398.JPG

I got two packages from Italian Barber. First one had the Son of Zeus, The three What the Puck soaps, and the variety pack of the four soaps (Gold, Blue, Black, and Green). The second package had the Proraso Blue cream and the after shave balm. A third package came from Amazon and had the Clubman Pinaud Shave Soap. Package four had the Gillette Wilkinson Sword (india) blades that I bought off ebay. The fifth package came with the 10 Wilkinson Sword (england) blades I got off ebay as well.

From left to right I got three packages. First one is a Vintage Style Razor from wetshavingclub.com and it was part of their $12 for the first 500 purchasers and came with 105 MenSmell Stainless blades. The second package came from Global Shave Club and had the Black Tiger, and the Sumatra which are Gillette Tech clones. The third package came from Maggard Razors and had the two heads I ordered the V3M in Grey, and a Slant head in chrome, as well as the two handles I bought which were the MR16 and the MR11 both in blue anodized Stainless Steel.

Final two items came in other packages already mentioned, but I got an Omega Boar brush and the RazoRock Plissoft brush.

Whew. It is a lot of stuff, but this is probably all I am planning on buying for quite awhile. I have enough soap and blades not to last over a year and I am excited to use them all!
