Courtesy of Mr Drubbing I have acquired a Semogue 830. I haven't used it yet but by-jove it's got a bloody nice handle. Well weighted and a nice stiff loft. Thanks Drubbing!
 
Courtesy of gthomas04 I am now the proud owner of a Gillete Flare Tip, Gillette Wilkinson Sword blades and a wee bit of Prosaro and Cella! Thanks heaps Glen!

Now where do I start: a brush from Drubbing, razor and blades and soap from Glen. Looks like I'm ready for a shave with all this new kit!

Well the other stuff isn't much good unless you've a brush to lather up with first...

Let us know how you get on with it. The 830 a couple of fans on here, so someone's getting it to work just fine.

And I've also picked up a Gillete something or other from eBay for $14 + $6.50 delivery. Gear acquisition syndrome has set in...

So I've whacked on the deerstalker and hit up Google for this result:

- Gillette Super Speed Flare Tip (J4) 1964
- Gillette Tech Ball End #24 1957

Plus I've the Merkur 23C circa 2011!
 
I've got a 74 ss flare tip but I don't really rate it other than as a curio, as it is a birth year razor.

sent from my Yoghurt lathered soap using a Semogue 830

That's crap. The 830 isn't a good enough brush to send an SMS.
 
Congratulations to Mark on his new baby heading down under. Nice work my friend, the RD is a nice piece.

EDIT: Post a picture for the rest of the plebs!
 
RD?
Real Doll?

Not sure if he wanted everyone to know about that.
Pics? No thanks, it's probably a used vintage one.

Yep, but it is my second - so I'll have one to sell soon....

In many ways I didn't really want the Red Dot but the other guy really wanted an Executive so at least it will go to a good home


@ Pablo - YUCK!!!!!
