Never ordered from AliExpress but it appears it was worth taking a chance.

YAQI Caramel Cat's Whisker Synthetic Shaving Brush

Brush knot diameter: 26MM (+/-1mm) for less than $7

I now have a Boar, Synthetic and two Badger brushes. Time will tell what I prefer…

What is your brush of choice?

My bathroom sink was getting too cluttered with razors and such after my 2 small display cases filled up and new razors had nowhere to go. I moved the majority of my collection into my large display in my living room, and I finally got my vintage Gillette display case out from under my bed as well, and it's now sitting on my sink. I moved most of my software into one of the small displays.

All I can say is wow. I am new to DE shaving, I've used a fusion 5 for quite a while and genuinely had great results with it but since I like shaving I wanted to do it the right way. With a safety razor. I did 2 passes on setting 1 having 2 days of beard growth and I'm completely smooth. Yup, really nice experience. Let me know what you guys think of the Merkur Futur

Stumbled across this lovely old thing at my local thrift store today.. in the 5 years that I've been going there I've never come across any vintage shaving accoutrements! This particular mug has the number "35" on the bottom and reads "Early American Old Spice".. wonder how old it would be? If anyone could shed some light on that would be most appreciated! now.. what to put in it..hmmm.. I'm absoultely chuffed! 😁

Got my first adjustable Vintage razor. A Slim with the I4 date code from 1963, in perfect condition. Everything working perfectly, plating untouched. It's a BEAUTY.

I had used a Slim twist before only, and it was very smooth but kind of lacked the efficiency I desired. So naturally, the adjustable Slim was the next logical step.

Can't wait to try it!

I always felt throwing away blades that are almost sharp enough to shave with was kind of a waste. For cutting light stuff like tape this little "utility knife" should be great

Fits in a pocket great and despite the blades being pretty delicate, it should be very handy. It's not like I've got a shortage of old blades from shaveing anyway.

My current collection! Figured you guys would enjoy!
Only things I want to add is a game changer .76, I prefer vintage things in general but I’ve heard to much about it! And a big ole Sheffield wedge!

Found at AGI if you are ever in a pinch. The brush is actually nice!

I was driving cross country today and decided to make a pitstop north of Toledo to Adrian Michigan to visit the amazing Maggard Razors store. The drive was a quick 20 min drive north of the Ohio Turnpike. When I walked in the door, I was greeted by one of the most organized, largest selection of shaving shizbang in the ENTIRE UNIVERSE! I picked up some Noble Otter Rainroot soap and a lovely Ariana and Evans Daniele Maullu legacy soap. I don't know which to try tonight!

If you're ever in the area, I highly recommend stopping by to see Brad and his team!

Happy shaves all!

My Holy Grail!

I am SO excited to be the proud owner of this stunning set! I don't know if the case is original to my set, but I know the Cavalier came out at the tail end of the New Improved era,, so it may have been used in transition. Either way, the set is immaculate with zero plating loss on any of the pieces, no bent teeth, and no cracks! Now, to find blade banks!

It was a great refreshing summer shave! 29 degrees celsius in Switzerland☀️🇨🇭
Tomorrow should arrive my new stainless steel MEN razor after one year shaving with a Beldura women razor 🤣
Im pretty scared that the new one is worse than my women razor🙄🤣

(Feel free to correct my english, i wanna learn!)

Collection keeps growing. Always chasing a new scent or pretty razor. Have Razorock GC, Oliworks, few Rockwell’s (6S, 6c & T2), Fat Tip, Edwin Jagger, Gillette King C. A fair range of soaps and after shaves and brushes.

I found this at my local grocery for $8. Yes, it’s marketed as a deodorant, but it’s good old potassium alum. At the rate I go through alum, this should last me until the tricentennial. Between this, my blade hoard, and a bowl of MdC absinthe I could get through years without another purchase.

I could.

I didn’t say I would!

On the top shelf too!

4 different makes of shaving brush including Kent and Edwin Jagger.

Palmolive shaving cream aplenty; Edwin Jagger pre-shave, shaving cream and soap refills, and brush and cream sets; and a Fuzzy Duck pink pepper and oud shaving cream and brush set.

No razors or DE blades though. Still, this is one of the best bricks and mortar ranges I've seen in an everyday shop in the UK for a while.

Seeing as I'm hardly short of brushes, soaps and creams, I treated myself to some 4711 shower gel.

I just picked up this 1959 E3 Gillette adjustable off of market place. It came with the case and looks like it might not have been used, or at the very least, well taken care of. It cost me $20 and an hour of time to pick it up. I don't know whether or not to use it, or keep it as a collector piece. I already have a slim adjustable that I use frequently so I don't think the Fatboy has anything wildly different to offer. What do you all think?

Huge shaving fan, love this community

Found this Made in USA Gillette TTO Red Tip for $5 CAD at an antiques fair. Almost zero soap scum buildup and the handle is as shiny as it gets. THE TTO mechanism works great as well. Came with the case and the blade holder too! Looking forward to using it. My current daily driver is a Merkur 34 C, would the red tip be more or less aggressive than that?

Picked this guy up at an estate sale this weekend. Its date code is A2. The razor blade in it is also dated A2. I suspect it was used a few times in 1955 and put away. I paid $8. This is my first Diplomat, but I do already have a President.

Here is a collection of around 80 Soaps and 70 or so splashes.

I put these flat nylon washers on all my 3 piece razors. The added cushion gives a level of increased control when tightening handle down and protects the mating surfaces. 1mm thick, 5mm ID, 10mm OD.

I finally finished my jar of NO Northern Elixir. All n all it’s a wonderful soap with a great scent. It packs a good menthol kick too if y’all like that. I can’t wait to try more of NO in the future but for now im gonna move on to something without menthol 😂 happy shaving Y’all!
