For this Tech Tuesday, I paired my Fat-Handled Tech with a Super Iridium, Arko and an Simpson Eagle G3 in Best followed by Floid Vigoroso AS and some Lubin Idole EdP.
 
I recently won an alu handle British made Tech on E bay so I'm eagerly looking forward to it's arrival. Hopefully I'll be ready to Tech a walk on the wildside next Tuesday! (see what I did there...ok I'm sorry!)

Well, I used my 1940's Ball-end Tech all last week with a Feather SS blade. This week I am using my Schick Krona. After the 30th, I am going to sea and will be using my travel Tech with Wilkinson Sword blades.
