Shaving Acquisitions March

I thought mince means slim in French. I might not buy a razor called mince if it wasn't French, but its lost in translation!

I wouldn’t say this razor is exactly slim or thin, just looks the size of an average handle, shave head and cap to me, apart from the +- of course. It’s well made and feels balanced in the hand.

My purchase of the IColoniali soap a month ago has rekindled my love of the classics. I'd always wanted a tub of the SMN. It smells divine and came in a stunning presentation box with free samples. I also purchased some MdC, and I have a tub of Tabula Rasa on the way.

A Schick Krona to add a bit of nostalgia to my razor rotation. I had one in the past but I can't remember exactly how it shaved, so I got one again to refresh my memory.

No I think they can only send the balm from the US, I'm not fussed about it, I like the balm.

Many thanks to @mpf9ret Mike for the original Occam’s razor. As long as it’s ok with @Mike Smart I’m going to give this a run out tomorrow and then compare it directly with the Occam’s Nano I kindly have on loan. It looks amazing and has a little extra weight which makes me think the two dot head may be a favourite with this one. We’ll wait and see!

Just arrived this morning, stunner. Terrible lighting here to take a pic but it really is excellent,

This is making me look forward to seeing mine too. It’s on its way! Do you mind me asking how long it took, it’ll give me an idea how long mine might be.
