This was waiting for collection from the sorting office - I placed an order many months ago but on an old company email address that I can no longer access, it was so long ago that I assumed it wasn't going to happen. Anyway, I'm pleased that it came through eventually - it's a 26 knot set at 52mm.
I didn't get any notification about my Romera brush either. Seems like a lack of communication is fairly typical.

Stellar haul.
Saw the photo of the Constellation - that's really smart looking!

Received this rather unusual, vintage French razor in the mail.

It appears that all pieces are made out of brass and it has a very nice weight and balance to it.


I really like the handle design but what I am really curious as to is how the parallel grooves in the top plate will feel during a shave.
One would think that grooves along the length of the top cap would making riding the cap difficult - but maybe the angle is such that it's not needed.
Interesting enough though that it's up for a shave later this week :)

My first PAL Injectomatic. Have mainly used SE's for 2016. Schick injectors have been my preferred razors. However, up until today I have never used a PAL. Picked up a decent razor for buttons. Will decide before spending more on a minter :unsure:
It along with the PAL Adjustable are my favorite razors in the world! Enjoy! :woot:
