Two shave related and a couple of pocket knives. The ever ready is smallish 18-20 mm knot. I now have 3 brushes in need of a restore. Super excited about the AV Menthol The 2 knives are an old Imperial Kamp king pre 1945 it took a wicked edge. The second one is a Craftsman made by Schrade. It will need to get a proper sharpening. Looks like a 10 year old tried to sharpen it. 😡 I have an Imperial belt knife that has a camp knife like that in a side holder. It was bought in 1957 by my Dads parents. Love that knife.

When I was in Scouts. We were at a Jamboree one year and somebody stole my knife. It was a beat up Camillus my dad gave me.
I was so bummed out. A day later I went in to go to the bathroom. Sitting on top a pile of Poop 💩 was an official Scout knife. I wasted no time reaching in and liberating that poor knife. Needless to say I spent some time that day cleaning the shit out of that knife. (Literally and figuratively)
Anyhow many years later I seem to have lost it again. So when I saw this knife I decided to pick it up. Kind of brings back good memories.

The Schick G1 that was kindly gifted to me by Mike mpf9ret , unfortunately broke at the handle. Fortunately Jim jayaruh came to the rescue and offered to make me a walnut replacement. I am blown away and waiting with baited breath. Before After I also couldn't resist adopting Jayaruh brush #289

Let's play a game called "what did Ordinaryshaver get in the mail today?" I will not divulge who sent it, if they would like to volunteer that information, then more power to them. I have been blessed by so many here, and I am always indebted to the generosity of this hobby.

And here we go for the last post in November that is actually being made in December. Yesterday I picked up 3 more 5 packs of Treet blades from the convenience store that I have been raiding now and again. Do not tell Flintstone anything about it though. I am keeping it a secret!

Got this Dandy Razor in a razor lot. Someone on The Shave Den posted about it way back in 2008. Description: Dandy Safety Razor, Circa 1910 Manufacturer: The Traut And Hine Mfg. Company, No 1 Union Square, New York Type: Single-Edge Country: USA Patent: Pat Applied For The construction is all steel.Takes a proprietary SE blade. A GEM blade won't fit, looks like it may work with a despined GEM blade and a little surgery.

Man, you are cornering the market in our little slice of the world...LOL I actually googled that particular convenience store to see if there were others of the same type -- I found one other, but I won't be surprised to learn you've cleaned them out too! I'm going to have to start staking out the place and waiting for the Treet truck deliveries

That dried up. I will be mpst happy to share the treets. I have 10 or so 5 packs around already. Lol
