February 2021 SHAVING Acquisitions Thread

[TomG]

Must try ATT S1 Slant at the advice of @alfredus & @TomG

Thanks for the reminder - I’ve been enjoying mid-aggressive DEs recently; must get the SE1 out of the drawer for a run.
If you ever take the plunge, I recommend the Japanese Schick SE blades.

Another unexpected badger brush purchase but didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Looking forward to giving it a run to see if 'high end' brushes live up to the hype.

Certainly won me over with initial looks and dry feel. Beautiful brush.

It was you!

Congratulations

I was wondering who might be the lucky man. Even though I don't go in for badgers, that is one beautiful brush.

Nice one - congrats. Is that a Harlequin?

Thanks. Don’t know, I’d have to ask @tim33z as I purchased it off him. The ID card that comes with doesn’t say so.

@Pbgoose @TomG
“Vintage Port”

I think the Harlequin has other colours mottled throughout.

So the start of a new journey begins....

what a great little gadget that is - does it attach with suction or tape? I like it!

no sticky tape, it’s like a smooth rubber than grips other smooth surfaces. I have two of the mirrors - one in the shower and one above the sink that I bought to help me shave my head. I’ve had them 6 months and have been super impressed.

The tell with the brush and razor holder will be whether it lasts the night. The bathroom is super hot and steamy at the moment - tomorrow it’ll a be cold. If it lasts the night and doesn’t fall of then it’ll be a keeper

Which is why I would NEVER use one. I don’t want ANY possibility that my razors or brushes will fall.

Which brush belongs to your wife hairy legs?

Timeless Titanium Crown razor handle

 

[Errol]

Timeless Titanium Crown razor handle

Good one @klinker I was looking at the Titanium Slim this morning and thinking about hitting that button. Something stopped me and I did not continue. About an hour later I received the email about that new titanium handle being released. Gives me an option now when I decide and it won’t be a hard decision.

Congrats on the latest brush. It pairs well with the Green one and the 2 Band Finest knots that @Tony Forsyth sets are fantastic !
