I fear rocks are next on my list. Thats nice!
Absolutely sweet looking! i like how the second hand looks like a signal flag!
I’m looking forward to your thoughts on this. I have one but need to flatten it... and learn how to hone.
Good luck flattening yours, I spent 3+ hours lapping mine! It is HARD!I’m looking forward to your thoughts on this. I have one but need to flatten it... and learn how to hone.
Just received this Rex Envoy razor. Going to stick a Gillette Rubie in it tomorrow and see how it performs.

And a nice little package arrived today from RazoRock (Italian Barber) with a Blade Bank, Schick Proline Blades, and the newly redesigned RazoRock SS Lupo 72 . I loaded up the Lupo and took it for a test drive today. I got a VERY nice shave with it. I had some very high expectations for this razor and I really wanted to like it...so far it has not disappointed me one bit.

This week's haul. A couple of soaps were ordered in November. The Yates shorter fat handle is new, and I got the Rockwell 6S and at long last, a Merkur 34G. The 34C was my first DE and I always wanted the gold version.
