Doug Korn D7V with Romera Manchurian - just took 6 months from conception to getting it

Unfortunately my photographic skills truly suck and don't do it any justice...my wife says it looks like jewellery...

Darn!! I can't see any image of @alfredus new brush :( looks like I'm not a member of the @alfredus badger brush secret collection society :oops:

I have no ideas as to why? @SpeedyPC told me of this issue yesterday already, but I cannot find the problem...

Could you guys please quote my message, go to the sourcecode and then copy and post the link found between the 2 IMG tags?

Can other people see my images?

Yet another thoroughly contemporary brush, that is a superb looking knot and a very nice piece :cool:

I'm sure you will be wanting to sell me one of your old, not used because you have so many new brushes, paladin butterscotch's really soon!

Finally arrived, after 22 days being lost in the matrix that is the postal service.

Aristocrat #15 closed comb, rumour has it these were for the Australian market, and Gillette used the #21 rather than the usual #15 open comb. Either way, it was a great shave and performed really well on its maiden voyage tonight.

I think i'm done with collecting the aristocrats, family pic from front to back: #66 Rh, #16 Rh, 1934 pre #15 OC in silver plate and the 15/21 at the rear (still not sure what the plating on it is)

Today a tub of Otoko arrived in the mail. Very impressive single pass.

Where did you get the puck from @Amicus , I looked for some a while back but for some reason couldn't source it ?

I believe there is a barber on the Gold Coast that stocks it. I am up there next week and thinking of going to see if I can get a tub.

If you do happen to stumble across it can you grab me a tub ?

I will compensate you more than adequately :)

Strange, i use photobucket and the image link in the main menu for all the photos i share on this forum, is it just this thread or in the SOTD section as well?

Photobucket seems to cause problems on this forum, alfredus was having the same issue with his photobucket images.
