Now that just sucks - although I think the packaging was part of the issue!

Hopefully I can get these two Wade & Butcher Straight Razors restored....
One has a Genuine Horn handle with a real "Patina"

[Limey]

Mike - they look like good ones to work with. I'll bet they look great with a bit of work!

Looking at one side and a picture not holding them I would say the can be restored pretty damn nice

The AS Balm is my favorite, hands down, for the winter months.

The shave Crema is really a soft soap so you cannot treat it like a cream,its very good and is skin friendly.

Nice haul - why don't you make a post with the info for the Montreal source for the Booster stuff.

How was the pricing?

[Jim]

I would say even softer than the proraso in the tub.

How was the pricing?

sure, where?

pricing was good for candian stuff, the clubman products were overpriced.

actually, the booster stuff was cheaper than from TBBS. $6.75 a booster bottle and $8.95 for the Fraser cream.

Shopping forum would do nicely.

Great prices!

The cedarwood is a deep, very dry resinous scent, I think it's a love it or hate it type of scent. The sandalwood is good also- its also available unscented.

[TimmyBoston]

Most definitely not, Chris. I used up that bottle quite a while ago.

Nice setup Tim. Its got a classy old world charm to it. Did you get it made?

[Areler67]

A Schick super 2 mint in box (must be from 1972-1974) bought only 3.30 Eur on ebay France. The guy's father in Law was a Schick demonstrator!

Over the past few days: Gillette NEW open comb, Shick L-1 injector, and two tubes of Proraso Red. All good stuff. I was apprehensive about the open comb but it was a smooth shaver, great razor for handling a couple of days of growth. The injector is possibly my favorite one yet, and the Proraso Red is great.

More stuff should be arriving tomorrow... :biggrin:

P.S. Tim, I love your cabinet/shelves, very classy setup.

Tom-

Have you found a great blade for the Shick?

[momo360]

from an antique store dowtown Montreal, had it lying around on a shelf, $40:

These guys I got off ebay $70, I wonder if i paid too much?

Tom-

Have you found a great blade for the Shick?
It's funny you should ask that. It came with a carton of Schick blades that look like NOS to me, plus identical-looking cartridges of Ted Pella and Personna blades. I used a blade from one of the cartridges and thought it was a nice one, but I don't know if it was a Personna or a Pella. There are no markings.

I wonder if it's possible that the Personnas and the Pellas are the same blade?

[TimmyBoston]

Nice setup Tim. Its got a classy old world charm to it. Did you get it made?

:lol: Heck no! :lol: I found it at Target for around $40. I like it though. :smile:

What the heck is it about us guys with shiny cool looking things????
Maybe some day I'll get up the nerve to give this one a go!!!!
The blade is actually much more shiny than it shows in the picture.

Yesterday I received my QED order of Tabac w/ bowl and a Mocha Java shave stick.
