Thanks Matt! I have to say that I am very pleased with the Rudy Vey. For the price and customization, it can't be beat. It is as dense as my simpsons 57 and seems to have better backbone. I am very pleased.

I'm so disappointed. A new vetiver scent is posted in a SOTD and all you can think about is a Rudy Vey brush? I'm taking your vet freak card!

No Vetiver for You!

I'm reserving judgment for another day or two. This was my first time wearing it. The fragrance is all Vetiver to my nose and very nice. Grassy...not dirty. I get a little licorice and some sweetness on the drydown, but it seems to be pretty straight forward.

The problem is, I have been wearing this all day, but I must have reapplied about 5 times. There is no silliage or longevity with this one. I'm thinking I may have received a bad bottle or an old bottle because all reviews of this fragrance say it is very powerful. My fiance said she could not smell it on me at all unless she was nose to neck. Maybe not a bad thing.

Again, I'm reserving judgment until tomorrow when I wear this fragrance during a full day of work so I can see where it goes.

Has anyone ever seen scales like this before? Thanks for sharing all the beautiful photography and blades.

Nice find, Bill, and great pic! NOW you need to find a Holler razor with some Genco scales! Those Holler scales are very rare, I would think!

Great job to all! Thanks! Tom

Finally got to shave. I decided to use the C-mon that Max restored for me. Wow she performed better the second time around. I need to hit the Lottery so i can send Max more of my razors to restore.
