B-pure Shave Soap

 I was made aware of the b-pure Shave Soap by members on TOST3. It is part of the shaving line at the Dollar Tree.  It has gotten good reviews for a $1.25 soap. I resisted, but I finally decided to take a look at our Dollar Tree. They had it, so I bought a puck. I had an old empty Col. Konk travel container that I cleaned out to hold the b-pure puck. It is a good fit. I cut out the name and logo and taped it over the Col. Konk name.

Box 66 for Gillette Tech Slant

I had to have a nice place to keep my new Gillette Tech Slant by Tom White. I used some cedar scraps to make this box. I made the lid a slant lid to go with the slant razor.

Gillette Tech Slant

 I received this very nice razor from Tom in Burbank. It is a Gillette Tech that was squashed into a slant shape by a device that Tom invented. He also put a very nice aftermarket handle on it. It appears to be an  Italian Barber Aristocrat stainless steel handle. The head does not have any date marks on it, just the regular REGUS PATOFF. On the inside of the base plate it says Pat.Nos.On Package.




Opening the package.
