Another Ever Ready Deluxe (circa 1949):
... joining some friends:
Very nice - I still don't have a "Clamshell" EverReady. I miss the well priced ones and the two I bought I sent back as the rust on the hinges was ridiculous. I'm taking the cheaper and easier 1912 Bakelite box route instead - nice set of colours with those as well.

Now I know that 'cool' is highly subjective but to me these are two very cool razors
1) A rare yellow-black Schick Super Plus II (actually the first I have ever seen) - NIB/NOS, and
2) A Wilkinson WII with - for some reason - a promotional box (empty) of Brut.

If you ever shave with the WII blades, you'll find them the smoothest of all the Trac II compatibles ... and last well, too.

I got one of those a few months ago as part of a job lot. Mine has a pink handle! I haven't got round to trying it yet, too many razors not enough time! Please let us know how you get on with it.

I spotted a couple of (I think they were called) unknown Vest Razors (sitting nicely in a pocket) on eBay and I've been wanting to try an open comb and like the idea of tidying up something. Rather pleased (although I didn't expect to see the blade)
Arrived early this week (I wasn't a well puppy so posting now)...
As a bonus, I'm going to have some fun tracking "Gnom"

Pay day treat.
I initially thought I had possibly paid a little too much for what I thought was a good condition English Flare Tip Rocket.
Pleasantly surprised today when the razor arrived from Italy this morning. Not only is it the slightly later (and rarer) model with the II on the back, but basically mint and I can only presume unused as it has that uniform just manufactured look. TTO is the smoothest I've ever come across (and that includes Aristocrats)

The Wickhams arrived yesterday. I've had the OSP for almost 2 weeks but hadn't got around to photographing it.
Two of the best current soaps there is in my opinion. I love that Bay Rum smell and the post shave feel on the Wickham's is sublime. Enjoy!
