    Default Ok got the bulldog traveler kit .

    Hi all

    ok got the kit today! I had to clean and polish the razor since the knob was polish and the rest of the razor was not.

    Once again the before pics...
























    And now after two baking soda baths and a light polish...



    The end cap cleaned up really well. I was a little scared about it from the before pics.





    And the real surprise..... The mirror was there! And in great shape looks like it was never used. I did not even polish it.




    Also , I did not touch the shaving brush or stick containers.....

    Looks beautiful! And the mirror is fantastic news. You never see those on their own at all, but you can occasionally find brushes come up that you could pick up to complete your set, if you really wanted to.

    Superb cleanup! Is baking soda quite good for razors?

    Excellent work. I love these sets. If you've never shaved with the Bulldog, I recommend it highly. I just came off a 2-week stint with it, and it was a refreshing and rewarding experience.

    Default i was shaving with a Bulldog for a few months ... then a New Style Big Fellow took ..

    Hi

    I have been using a Canadian Bulldog for a few months and then came across a Big Fellow with a New style head. BUt that was not pushed out by a Old Style head Big Fellow and been using that for a few months now... After cleaning the Bulldog yesterday I am very tempted to go for it !!

    I have recently entertained serious thoughts about selling it but I just can't quite do it. It's so amazing to look at and use! If I do, you'll have the first crack at it, Bill.
