2026 Shaving Acquisitions Thread

It's to use for samples: stainless steel, so I'm hoping that there will be less scent contamination from one sample to the next.

Good idea, I've opened packages of samples (not from you) where I've been blown away by the mixture of scents emanating from my mailbox...

I like metal (SS or Al, I don't much care) containers, we have enough plastic in our world. That said, the Parkway tubs that so many of our soaps come in are perfect for our (SWMBO + myself) homemade moisturiser. Hoping not to need so many in the future though, I'm running out of uses for them in the workshop.

Mail call:- Highlander Tabac 24/52mm G5C this is the heaviest brush I've ever felt in my bloody hand, believe me, the weight felt bloody RIPPER!!

Looking forward to a FULL Tabac shaves, I'm looking forward smelling like an old swaggy grandma handbag.

A razor I had thought about purchasing for a while based purely on the marketing (steel blanks from Dovo's old factory from 1967 that they had set aside for their Tennis brand, finally finished with modern scales, and limited edition). I got a small payment from my side hustle and thought, if I had the extra money, I might as well buy it before it sells out and I regret not buying it, so... No.150/500. I'm not a fan of these craft boxes. Not sure why they ditched the coffin boxes they used to use before the brand purchase and revamp.

My wife saw me unwrap this beauty and asked, "why do you keep buying razors? Why don't you just re-sharpen the ones you already have?" WHAT? I CAN RESHARPEN RAZORS!?!? WHY DIDN'T ANYONE ON THIS FORUM TELL ME I COULD DO THAT?!?!? I'VE JUST BEEN BUYING NEW RAZORS INSTEAD!!! THINK OF ALL THE MONEY I COULD HAVE SAVED!!! Yeah, no more razors for me for a while, I think...

I thought about road testing the 'shave ready' factory edge before I broke out my stones, but it struggled to shave even arm hair. Now I have to hunt around for my kapton tape.

No.150/500.

Lovely razor! Shaving off your own edges is where the real thrill is!
