Just picked up a 51 USSR straight off the bay.
All I have in the mail now. Some double edge razor blades for when I am in a hurry and don't have time to straight razor shave.

Just purchased today. Waiting for it to come and then the fun of cleanup and the learning starts. First straight razor ever.

Weird week, no straights, but three different buddies, two last week, and one tonight, found their old DE's and gave them to me. So, for a straight razor user, I now have two Gillette Fatboy Adjustables that work perfectly, and tonight, I would guess this is a Gillette Slim Adjustable DE also works fine...lol...guess I'll get some blades tomorrow.

Just received my Ralf Aust and strop from SRD today. Excitedly waiting for my custom Zulu Grey 3x9 with unfinished orange skin :) can't wait to make a bokote case for it. I'll have to wait on further purchases until my bank account recovers. :aargh:
Next : a Lecoultre fb ivory, traded with a friend :)

Still have to get a good edge on my Lecoultre, the first try was horrible :)
Expecting (soon) a pair of 7/8 Nogent razors signed by a very famous silversmith (Gustave Keller) :)
