what is your "holy grail" shave item?

[goatee]

what is the one item you have, or would like to have,, above and beyond anything else?
a vintage razor? is it a brush?

for me i think it would be a big fat 7/8ths. filly with gold inlay and an ivory handle.


so what about you? what floats your boat?

[rxonmymind]

Don't have one. It's sort of a collection of "holy grail"items that bring it all together. Proraso, Tcheon Fung Sing, RazoRock Boston Tea, Personna med blade, EJDE89 and Lucido. I'm in shaving nirvana. Every shave with the afore mentioned items have me on a BBS shave everydaywithout a nick of irritation. Life.is.good.

7 Day set in Mammoth Ivory. Oh, and a neverending supply of Razorock.

[tempusfugit]

A pristine Big Fellow razor, in its wooden box with all the fixings.

[Badger & Bengall]

My holy grail safety razor is a Gillette British #15. I don't care about the box, and I'd even prefer a replated item. I want that baby to last!

[Topgumby]

A Khaki Set.

[GreekGuy]

Either an MK34 or a Rooney Stubby 3 in Finest. Never seen a photo of either, but I know they exist

I'll take anything hand delivered by Scarlett Johansson. Even the phone bill.
Shaving wise, I'll go with my Toggle I had rhodium plated.
Even though I mostly use a straight, the Toggle is still my favourite razor.

You, sir, are after my own heart.

very, VERY easy:

I already had so many of my own razors, if we count all of the Atras, particularly, that I've resisted buying more than a couple, similar to some I once had. But I don't remember with certainty whether I had a 4th Gillette adjustable, a possible long handle Super Black Beauty. I suppose for now, that's one to enjoy a look at, have on a wish list. I already have created problems for myself with other collections in the past, and a reluctance at parting with old belongings . .

[Snargle]

My current desire is one of the Rhodium-plated British razors from the late 1930s.

[ThePatrician]

Well I sure wouldn't mind having a rhodium-plated Fatboy......

My RV custom. A big long handle, silky-soft tips with good backbone.
