That's an unusual and beautiful razor. Can it be used with standard SE blades or is it wedge only?
Cheers

I Got a piece of rock and one of them Swedish shaving sticks. I'll have to clean her up some. The #32 is on one side. It will be getting some new clothes after I polish it up a little.
"Swedish shaving sticks"
it would be the perfect custom title if it wasn't so easy
SWMBO & I hit the flea market this weekend, and after a bit of walking around, happened upon a vendor with a basket full of razors! In amongst the worn, brassed Techs and peeling Gems, was a tarnished but sound 1908 Single-Ring! Needless to say, I snatched it right up.
A bit later, on the opposite end of the hall, I spied a metal Pocket Series case. Upon closer investigation, it turned out to be an ABC Empire set! Huzzah! Okay, it included a Frankenrazor ('22 New Improved head on the ABC handle), but I was still excited to acquire it!

Congratulations on the Godrej. If you bowl lather, I find the cream mixed with your shaving soap of choice produces some absolutely slick lather!!!
Where did you get them?The jars are glass Pyrex. I bought them specifically for the soap samples. They're really thick and the rims have the most beautiful cobalt blue hue in the light.
Where did you get them?
Acquisitions from the last month, not much but I'm holding back - going to London in a weeks time

Glad to see that a board member got those brushes. I wonder if that London made brush is a Simpson fifty series.
Love it! Especially with the whipping. Leave it as it is. Just shampoo it and use it. At most clean and seal it.
No! No! No! Just clean it and use it. It's beautiful just as it is.
Well, OK, maybe a slightly bigger knot
That handle is absolutely stunning.
