The passaround will let you make an informed decision, cheaply
I think the brass Jupiter will be a fair bit cheaper than the other razors.

Monday 12 February
The Wilko Sticky is an excellent TTO razor and it continued on the fine history of the brand from the early Pall Mall stropping razor days. Today however, my attention must have drifted during the shave as I must have turned the twist handle a tad which allowed the blade doors to lift slightly. This is not normally an advisable way to shave as blade gap can quickly go off the scale. Fair play to the Sticky as feedback was instant and I corrected it before any damage was done. Phew!
The Londinium is a favourite of mine, creamy and great scent of lime. The Old Spice is indeed old stock off the Bay, but still has that evocative smell with memories of my youth when it was my “go to“ aftershave before a night out. Actually I might have borrowed it from my Dad and suspect that I shaved infrequently in those days , but what a great feeling to splash it on!
Enjoy the day fellas!

In honour of my friend @Rip my flesh conquering the fat I thought I better give my half of the soap a try and I’m pleased to report it’s excellent.I can’t tell much of a difference from my tallow one and this new one produced a superb lather.
Long live the fat.

But not as much as a takeaway from this jolly little Dutch place....
