This is a gift for my son, who is graduating from the correctional officer academy tomorrow. I chose the Gillette Fusion razor handle, Monarch brush kit, AAA badger brush, deluxe stand, and bonus toothbrush. The blanks are black acrylic with white stripes, sometimes called Lightning. I had some problems with the stand, it came with a wrong connector and missing cap. I emailed, they sent me the correct connector, but not the cap. I emailed again, they sent me the wrong cap. I ran out of time, so I epoxied the cap on. It seemed to have worked, it's very solid.
