Looking for Advise

Good day. Here is the situation. I am 72 going on 73 years old. I have an extensive collection of SE/LE brushes as well as a nice collection of Gillette vintage razors. No one in my family has any interest in my shaving gear. My desire is to dispose of my gear to interested folks. I seek no profit. ...

Re: Looking for mild TTO or three piece safety razor

Chris, The Blue Tip is mild as others have stated. Tell you what....I have a Blue Tip to give up. Cosmetically, it is not the prettiest Blue Tip going, but mechanically it s sound. The TTO is tight, the doors align and open and close smoothly. Overall a sound razor. If you want it, it is yours...fre...

Boulder Mountain UT Aspens

My wife and I were able to catch the Aspens at their peak during a Fall vacation to Utah. We drove through miles and miles of Aspen groves. It was spectacular.

Re: After all these years (rose shave soap)...

My favorite Rose soap is Jabonman. It is made by Manuel Garcia in Barcelona Spain. Nice, fresh rose scent and wonderful lather. Concerning creams, I prefer Cyril Salter Wild Rose.

Here are some pictures. Some color loss on the tip, but to be expected for the age of this razor. TTO works smoothly. Doors align evenly. Virtually no scratches on the doors. Minor brassing under the doors. I have used this razor. Am selling because I have another. I paid $45.00 w/shipping and am as...

Semogue 2013 w/Stand

I was fortunate to purchase one of these brushes before Bruno sold out his stock. It is a wonderful brush with an amazing knot. Soft, comfortable - it feels great face lathering with a soft soap. The stand is Zebrawood which I believe goes nicely with the Olivewood. Semogue2013b.jpg Semogue2013a.jpg...
