Too small and light for a door stop. Great paperweight though.

Just bought my first Straight. If anyone knows anything about it I'd love to know. 11/16ths round tip etched with Solingen design on the blade.

That looks awesome @Wayne! eBay?
When I look, the ones I fancy end up £££ and anything else is usually scrap. I'd love to know how @Billyfergie "steals" them NOS!

Yes Lee. Ebay. I missed out on a couple but snagged this one for £30. I had to resort to the last 5 second bid tactics. I sat with my maximum bid until the last 5 seconds then pressed submit. It seems to be the way to do it nowadays. I'm sending it off to @Billy to hone for me. Hopefully it'll be a good blade and hone well and keep it's edge.

Nice one @Wayne, I've used gixen.com a couple of times recently myself. Everyone is sniping so why not!

Mail call from sunny Spain.
Verzelli - Handle Material : Red Hearth, Hair type and size : Manchurian Finest 28mm., Loft : 52mm.
Bare knot is 26mm Manchurian.
To be honest, I ordered this a couple of months ago. I forgot all about it. No notification that it was coming until the postman dropped it off.

I don't know how Bulb knots are. But if they are like Manchurian Finest Fan, you have a very very good hair there
Enjoy it!!!

My very fist B&M products (LPC) arrived in the mail today. Not completely sure I like the scent but we'll see how they smell and perform during an actual shave

Thanks. I'm thrilled. The photo's were as it arrived and it does need a gentle surface clean up but the condition is very good given it's age.
