My new lather bowl I just bought from a local antique shop. I can't wait to try it tomorrow morning.
Just got this Thomas Turner & Co. in the mail - zero honewear and almost no pitting at all. I like them because they are one of the lesser known "cutlers to their majesties." More for me! 
Got these and a cased Schick Adjustable and a gold ball end tech for $25. If anyone knows what these are, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Here are 4 I picked up today.Top is "The Jap" made in Germany for Chapman. The second is Morley & Sons, etched Full Hollow Ground on the blade. Third is simply marked Solingen but honed it up tonight and is a terrific shaver! The fourth is a Geo. Wostenholm celebrated IXL .
And some closer shots

Not 100% sure but, the bottom one looks like my Aristocrat De Luxe.
Acquired last monday 16th. two weeks in transit to Portugal. But the waiting was worthless.

- Bay Rum
They already in the Ikea Grundtal tins. Each tin can have one and a half Mike's soap

That Solingen is beautiful! If you decide to part with it, Let me know!
Thanks, I looked around and had trouble with the patent numbers. Still can't find anything on the 4 piece or the SE.
Try mr-razor.com and that Solingen is very nice.
Thanks guys. Yes it's pretty and it's a great shaver as well. And that etch is so deep. I love it so it's not going anywhere. Sorry .
I have been in blade-buying mode this month:

The bottom razor looks like a short comb new with common bar handle. Without a box, it is hard to give a definite answer as Gillette had different names based on the box. This is one of my favorite razors.

Couple of new ones to add:
Knots for my brush restorations
Muhle R89 JET (DLC coated)
A gift from a great friend!
Already I have a Bob's Razor Works Bull Mastiff Deluxe XL, but I was a long time looking for this one. A BRW Bull Mastiff Deluxe with Flared Knob. Yes, the original! Not a copy! I had the opportunity to grab this one with two knobs: the flared one and the standard one plus Gillette NEW Long Comb razor head replated by him and a nice leather case. I didn't doubt! I miss Bob!

I have been very lucky lately and had visits from the post woman a couple of times 
First a very generous parcel from Foroafeitado.com, where I was so fortunate to win a honourable vote.
Some very nice products from Floïd and a Lea stick (new formula)
Then I got a very nice Christmas offer from originalebutterflies.dk that I couldn't resist
So seven new bow ties went into the cart - never go down on lack of equipment
And last, I introduced some in my family to a very good lip/skin balm that are used by the Swedish armed forces and they said they would like some and since I was ordering anyway, I slipped a TOBS St. James Collection aftershave and cologne into the cart for myself
The vendor was in full Christmas mood, so they had included some Marvis toothpaste and samples of Anthony products.
I think I am good for the coming holidays and should be able to go through them without getting the shakes

I think I may need to try these.
I ordered a black/yellow Nato strap from Singapore for my watch. I am hoping I will like how it looks.
