Second shave for this week with my Vintage Gillette NDC Gold Ball End Tech. It is a fantastic razor when paired with a good or really sharp blade.

I'm strangely excited about getting a few Vintage razors. My modern razor family seems complete at the moment... and in a month or so, I think my venture into Vintage razors will be following. All the Vintage razors I ordered have made it to the States and only one of them isn't in the hands of the USPS at the moment. I hope he gets it to the PO soon. I mean... he created the label on Monday... Patience, Phoenix... patience...

Now I have to sell a few things to fund the 1953 Y2 President... I've been figuring out what I can post on BST for a couple days now. I will sell the two complete Timeless 0.68OC razor heads I have... but I've been wondering if I should add a couple ATT razors I have as well. The only thing stopping me is the wait for Blackland to re-introduce the brand. I think with the right base plate, I'd love the Windsor..... but how long will the wait be?
