Great question…definitely not wood…but otherwise I have no clue. I’m banking on faux ivory (if any authorities happen to be reading)

If I had to guess from the picture I think they may be celluloid.Great question…definitely not wood…but otherwise I have no clue. I’m banking on faux ivory (if any authorities happen to be reading)
That sucks when that happens, If you can't return it be sure to keep the scales they look usable for a transplant.@GearNoir very nice indeed. Looks like a win.
My new razor came in the mail. Seems the area I thought was only a small ding/chip is a full on crack. Unuseable...

I will keep it. I will part the scales and super bob the razor. Going extra shorty here. Thinking kamisori. Might as well see if I can get something out of it.
A patterned Celluloid more than likely based on the bolsters and age of razor, Very niceGreat question…definitely not wood…but otherwise I have no clue. I’m banking on faux ivory (if any authorities happen to be reading)

Bottle of YSL L'Homme EdT, which came with a tube of shower gel as well for the same price - hard to argue with that!

Had a couple of Wade & Butchers follow me home from the Antique store this afternoon. Shouldn’t take too much to clean them up!
2 % ? I thought it was more like 5 % !!
I’ve been collectI got old school scents for a bit now - hard to believe that fragrances that were released when I was growing up are now considered “classics.”
This was a blind buy - bought based on another blind buy from a new soap maker - described (at least on the picture on the label) as a barbershop scent. This did not disappoint - it is a wonderful fragrance IMO in the same genre of Drakkar Noir and Calvin Klein Eternity for Him. It is it’s own scent - it doesn’t mimic them - but it is definitely reminiscent of the 80’s (when I would bathe myself in the afore mentioned Drakkar, Hugo Boss, and Polo Green.
Definitely worth the $15- and powerful. You often hear or read that older fragrances get reformulated and they are weaker from their vintage counterparts. not the case here, I sprayed 1 spray on my hand when I unboxed and it was strong. I’m not sure this would be a good pick during the summer daytime, but would be good In the evening all year round.
Three weeks ago I got a great deal on 2 NOS Heljestrand MK32’s and a lightly used MK31. They came to me by way of Denmark 
and they were worth the wait!
