Thanks, if I can source the correct tap and die. Right now it's merely surface and the threads are fine but that would be nice insurance.

REM, a chaser tap and die are not thread creators but rather correctors and cleaners. Presuming it a 5x0,8mm thread would be ideal to have at hand. Even if not the modern standard, still so inexpensive, why not keep a set? Alternatively, one could go to a motorsports machine shop, proffer guy $5 and he likely to run it for you

They both don’t have any Succes or the Clean shaving soaps as I’m waiting on the bottom labels. 
I’ll update as soon as I know more.

Frank, did you get those bottom labels?

Razor: Schick N1 Injector
Blade: Vintage Schick Twin (2)
Brush: Knothead Brushworks Kentuckian
Soap: Ethos Succès
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Ethos Succès Skin Food Splash
Fragrance: Ethos Succès EDP

Continuing my run thru my 3 Ethos scents I have with Succès. Another joyous scent from Dragonsbeard Frank is this Aventus dupe which is a little more pineapple forward but just divine and intoxicating. Got a slick and creamy lather whipped up using the "Kentuckian" brush from Tim at Knothead Brushworks and a Maggard's Timberwolf knot. Said lather was then extricated by the use of an N1 injector with a twin injector blade. I am feeling great and smelling better after applying the SFS and EDP. Hope everyone has a great day !!!

Heritage was but then China ripped him off or something so either went to the back burner or scrapped. Not sure as conversation about it ceased
