I think I shall have that razor fully restored soonish. Not just because it is my only non-Solingen German vintage, but also because it is simply a fun (singing full hollow) razor. Certainly not aimed at beginners, what with all the flex it offers, and the somewhat intimidating size, but if you can get one of these cheaply, take it.

Which do you prefer, plain Bay Rum, or Bay Rum and Sandalwood? I'm leaning towards the +Sandalwood.
Also, is that dog a pure Pug?
Thanks, did not feel like taking a SOTD picture today :)
I just have samples now.
I have the bay rum, bay rum w/ lime & peppercorns, cologne and 5 different soap sample from them.
