Happy with my setup now i have two brushes so one is going.

I have it form brand new since the beginning of January, it has been well looked after and is in excellent condition. Works well with creams and soaps so a good all rounder, the silver tips are absolute luxury on the face.

Price is €27 which is half the cost of a new one and i will include postage.

I have plenty of +++ feedback an adverts.

Have 2 packs of 5 Derby Extras I'm looking to get rid of FOC.

I'm now at the stage where I'm getting consistent results with a range of other blades (especially, Feathers, Wilkinson Swords and Personas) but the Derbys just don't do it for me:(.

They were one of the first blades I tried when I first took up DE shaving about 4 months ago but they seemed to irritate my skin and left me with numerous small nicks.

I put it down to poor technique in the beginning but now that I feel I've (somewhat) mastered that, the Derbys are still giving me poor results.

So, anyone interested in taking these off my hands PM me your address and I'll pop them in an envelope before the weekend. First to PM me gets the blades.

Lert the "Derby" begin!:pac:

All I have up for trade are Bolzano Superinox x 4, Croma Diamant x 9 & Shark Super Stainless x 4. If they don't tickle your fancy, tis no problem.

If any one else is interested in them, I'll post them on no problem. If you have some swaps, I'd be interested in Red Personna & Perma Sharps

padi89

Only looking for feathers as a trade, would sell the blades at €9 posted if anyone is interested.

DeadSkin

No worries padi89

If any one is interested in them, I'll pop them in an envelope and post 'em on!!

The Futur is used. it has some light marks on the head and some bumps at the end of the handle. The price reflects this. Please refer to the pictures.

If you are starting out with safety razors, I would not suggest starting with the Futur.

The Van Der Hagen Shaving Brush is a fairly stiff Boar Brush, a Boar Brush will take up and release water in a different manner, compared to a Badger Hair Brush.

All bundle prices include Postage & Packing for the 26 Counties.

---

The Lea sticks have markings on the inner tube. This was caused by the sticks being loose in the plastic tubes and being transported back, in luggage, from the Canaries..

Everything, apart from the safety razors, is new and unused.

Nothing against Merkur, but I've settled pretty much on the Edwin Jagger shaving head, on top of the Parker handle I bought from Cabaal last year. There will be more purchases. But it is highly unlikely any of the razors will be 'modern'.

Amalgam

Free to take. Posted at my expense.

Aloe+ Lanzarote 100ml

TAKEN

Aftershave lotion, moisturising and rich with Aloe.

Reply on thread or send a PM.

Please don't 'just take it' for the sake of it, if you're not going to use it, let someone else make use of it. Cheers.

Hi Amalgam, I can take the lotion off your hands. I had a Clarins one but it ran out a while back and wouldn't mind trying something new if that'd be alright

Amalgam

Jay P, no bother. Send me a PM with a postal address and it'll go out tomorrow morning.

I'm not into lotions at all, aftershave is what works for me.

Howdy close shavers...I have 3 packs of sealed japanese feathers to swap...let me know what you have........

GowlBag

Hi lads,

I bought some Iridium Super along with some others recently. Still trying to figure you what's best for me. Now I know these certainly aren't! So there are 9 left untouched in the box. If these are your cup of tea then they are yours F.O.C. unless you have any Gilette 7 O'Clock Yellow that you don't like!

PM me!

Smart Guy

I have been lookiing at my collection of razors and have a merkeur progress that I am thinking of swopping. It is the short handle version. It is in mint condition in its original case. Any proposals.

Sorry mate I'd be more into shaving cream than soap.

Hard to explain, but.. it isn't a soap. A mutton like cream, you lather on it and it will provide a lather that will put many creams and soaps to shame.

Only decent tallow product out there, in my opinion.

seosamh

Amalgam,
You know your soap and Monsavon is a great performer, which explains its popularity in France, available in every little shop and big supermarket there. Apparently, it is owned by Sarah Lee, the American big food company.

Would you know where I could pick up MWF wash to use as a prep?

Ah go on so....PM me your address and I'll send them on

Amalgam

You won't regret it Fingers Mcginty, neither one thing or the other, bit of an odd product altogether. The only downside is, if you decide you'd like more, it is impossible to get at a sensible price outside of France.

seosamh

Thanks Amalgam for the encouragement. How are you fixed for Monsavon? I have one more to spare and still have enough to last me a good while.
