I just receive back my double-trouble str8 set from Honemeister @Mark

Not sure what I should call this boxed set: a weekend special? Twins? Poor man's 7 Day Set?

Returned from Mark you can call them exceedingly sharp smooth shavers [emoji4]

Nice set!!

WOW - very nice!

Big day for you today

If only I'd snagged those seven day sets on eBay earlier this year with the ivory scales I might have joined you on the dark side ...

Str8 razor collecting may be a new frontier for you @Mark1966 [emoji14]

Come over into the light brother where you will see the truth & straight shaving shall set you free. Then again, if it will set me FREE why are straights so EXPENSIVE??

But then no other blade gives you as many shaves. [emoji4]

I've already made that offer a while back. It's still valid btw. Actually, there's one here with your name written all over it (although we do have the same name). Ready to shoot off to the mail when you give me the green light @Mark1966

@Mark1966 what's stopping you ?

He hasn't managed to use all of his own razors yet - let alone start on someone else's.

I've been wondering where my Connaught order was - usually they are very quick. It arrived today -



Safely despite the box being absolutely flattened.

I made a comment at the PO about being glad it arrived as it seemed to take much longer than usual. The staff apologised, 'Yes, was going to say sorry to you' she said, 'we found this stuck under the counter behind some other parcels'.

OK, so that would explain the '9/6' hand written on the front of the parcel then ... #Ausfarce !

We really need a thumbs down button. Good it did turn up though.

Had this nice little set arrive yesterday

That's a beauty. @bald as will be turning green.

 

[Pjotr]

Just arrived today

Ninja warrior stuff!

 

[unobtainium81]

Yes, the vintage version as displayed, ie pre-reformulation
Oh and also post reformulation, due to the seller using an image like that, rather than one that accurately reflects it's the reformulation and different packaging.

Oh and a birth Super Adjustable in good condition

Does this mean my bottle is worth some money? *casually walks off to ebay*

Fantastic - did I say fantastic? Wow. I do hope you are going to actually use it. At least the razor side of the kit.
Congrats.

It's already had 2 uses, I'll be giving it a few more but at this stage it's not looking like a keeper.

That is a pity. Why is it not to your liking? I have never shaved with a Streamline so cannot make any comment.
