    Default It's been a good week or so.

    A few nice things turned up in the post in the last 10 days or so.

    A Plisson Brush


    Le Grelot "The Lord Barber"


    A tired Le Jaguar in need of some TLC


    A nice vintage Le Grelot


    This is special. A Joseph Mappin Lancet Edge in what I'm pretty sure is elephant ivory scales.


    My first "big" blade. Well, the first over an inch. It's a 17/16 of unknown maker. It needs a heck of a lot of work.


    And last but no means least, a Livi ATS 7/8 in olive wood scales.

    WOW! Are you in the market for a 27 yr old adopted son? Those are some beauties-- I know with all of the other things in that collection this will sound weird, but I really like the scales on that Jag. Congrats.

    Those are very nice. Question about the Mastro Levi, are the scales made out of just one piece?
