Blutt BR-1 Safety Razor Stainless Steel High Gloss Polish

New members of my Paladin family 

The package that broke my 2023 restraint arrived from Phoenix Shaving. Man, am I happy. The brush is so soft to the touch. If it feels the same in a shave, it'll be exactly what I wanted. I am very excited. Mounted it immediately. It should be ready to try Monday.

Also received a sample of Cavendish soap and a sample of the Star Jelly. The soap smells amazing, can't wait to try it out Monday night.

The Star Jelly did a wonderful job on its maiden voyage, this evening. A mild menthol zing and a slight kick from the touch of alcohol. Absolutely awesome. I'll use it for the next few shaves to see how it works for me in the long-run. After that, I have a sample of Mysterium Serum to try, as the folks at Phoenix graciously tossed that one in (thank you Doug CaD314 !). I'm equally excited to see how that works for me too.

Have a great evening folks!

Made a handle for Gillette Tuckaway. Do not judge strictly , this is my first handle that I made myself .

Oh my, I want me some! Need some customers?

Thank you very much my friend ! If you saw what tool this handle was made with... You would never believe that this is possible. I don't have a machine. At best,  on the machin they make me the initial shape of the handle . Everything else I do by hand. From the electric tool I have only a drill and sandpaper. It's hard enough. Therefore, these are single, one-time products. For personal use only. I'd love to buy anything I've made lately. But right now it's not possible for me.

Amazing stone.
