The Friodur I got wednesday was a bit sharper than expected and I didn't pay enough attention. Result: A slice on my upper lip and a couple days without shaving :crying:
 
You can't see the goods, but I wanted to post a pic of this killer WWII army issue kit I picked up. It cleaned up really nicely and is ready for vacation tomorrow.

Goods hiding inside:
Tech Travel Razor
Omega 11047
Feather Blades
Dickinson's witch hazel
Pinaud Lime Sec
Ogalalla Bay Rum and Sandalwood
444 balm
Godrej Lime
Vulfix Sandalwood


As you can see, I have a couple things missing from the kit. If anyone can provide some insight so I can replace them, I would sure appreciate it.

There is an empty leather strap holder next to the comb which probably used to hold a long narrow box in which you would have put your tooth brush.

Today's shave doesn't deserve a picture. It was pretty bad. My face felt way too sensitive this morning (I guess playing with my niece for a few hours last night was responsible for that) so I only went with one pass. Managed to give myself a cut about an inch long to the side of my throat too :cursing:

Not a great start to the day. Things can only get better though.
