    Default Sweet Pairings

    Gentlemen,

    I like pretty things. In the shaving world, sometimes I can't help but pair pretty things. In this case, here is a pairing of two Muhle razors with a Thater two-band, on the left, and a Plisson synthetic, on the right. Both combinations add immeasurable joy to my morning shave.

    Do you also enjoy sweet pairings? Perhaps you can share a photo.

    I am fairly certain Obie intended safety razors here, but this IS Straightrazorplace!

    Drew and Sons, Picadilly Circus matched pair in ivory. Ivory/horn badger brush from the same retailer about turn of century.

    Always liked this pairing, the old with the new - Mongoose Razor and an NOS vintage flask of Old Spice AS (smells great too!)

    Was a fine old SOTD:
