It’s been so long since I used a Boar Brush! 

I recently picked up my Omega and started using it.  I had a blast! I’ll tell you all about it !

Oliworks Safety Razor 

  

 

Based on the Gibbs razor design, The Oliblade is 100% made in the USA by a family run machining business.  The company was founded in 2009, and they started making razors in 2023. Priced at $150, and available in solid guard bar or dual opencomb designs.

Woolfblades Straight Razor 

Some beautiful designs coming from this custom razor producer.  Woolfblades are made in South Africa, start at $500 usd and go all the way to about $2000 usd. 

They are sold primarily online and at a retail store in Ireland. 

 

As with all custom pieces, remember your YMMV. These look great and have great reviews !
