Thread: What Do You Have In The Mail Right Now?

I remember seeing a post about that. I think I can see now why there is little to no hone ware.

I got a big package in the mail today. I won't say who it's from but someone here on SRP had a bunch of stuff and wanted to send it to me. A thank you for doing my part here at SRP including the giveaway. I just took one pick but in short...
17 or 18 Schick and Gillette razors. A couple of very odd Gillette you don't hear much about.
7 different styles of vintage injector blades
7 straights
a silver-plated shave mug
a couple of old soaps
Few brush holders
about 50+ vintage brushes

Anyway, I just wanted him to know how much I appreciate the gesture. I will have to go through all this so it's another fun thing I get to do besides the car for a while. Wish I could restore razors but that ain't happening just yet.
I will have to make a few more shelves as my shave brush collection is now well over 100. Maybe I will fix up a few to sell. The wife just doesn't understand.

That lot will keep you out of trouble for a while...

Here I am stoked to get a couple nos packs of injector blades.
Not jealous much at all...

I'd say your coffee mug, is full.

I think you're right Mike but what a great way to spend some time when there's nothing good on the TV.

Wow, Jerry. That is a really, REALLY generous gift. I saw the picture before I saw your name on my phone and thought, "wow, Jerry would love those Schicks, and those NOS tubes of blades are hard to come by." Then I zoomed out. Looked like it was from an estate sale or something. Everything looks great!
Haven't tried the modern injector style yet, but I think I would probably prefer the long handle Injectors over the short ones.

Scored this and a Super Speed? for $15. Cleaned with Dawn and a toothbrush, then with 3M Polish. Looked like it wasn't rinsed out the last time it was used, so it was gross. Soaked it in Barbicide when I was done. Still rough, but looks better.

Thanks all. It will take me a bit to clean up but I will enjoy it. My coffee cup is now full of straights that need restored or just honed and a small box for the rest. Although now I have another issue, my razor cabinet is full so Im going to have to find another holder/cabinet or case and store SE and DE separate from straights.

Nice find Joshua. With all my stuff plus all the stuff I just got I still dont have a Fatboy. Its on my list.

Well it couldn't have gone to a better guy. Nice gift there Jerry and props to the giver.

Yeah, nice when you can keep everything organized.

Well, turns out the cap is bent on the razor so it wouldn't shave right if I did use it.
