Treet razors, show 'em if ya got 'em! (Please)
I pried on my brown baton handle bottom with my thumbnail, not very hard as I didn't expect it to come off, but it came right off. Inside was loose black stuff, glue maybe, that was rock hard and brittle, and the inside of the handle was,... Blue!!! I'm not sure what this means, the brown is not paint.

Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

Not sure why but I can't see any of the pictures. One of my black Baton handles had that black stuff rattling around in it too. I removed the end cap cleaned it out and replaced the end cap. The blue inside yours sounds intriguing. I wonder how deep the outer brown part is.

Wow. I wonder if the brown could be removed to expose the Blue without damaging the handle. Probably not worth trying unless you really don't care about it to begin with.

I doubt it, I think I'll leave well enough alone.

Good decision. I don't remember if I glued the bottom cap back on or just pressed it back into place. Regardless it hasn't come off.
