    I got that same bottle. Really good stuff but seems to me a spicy, "warmer" frag better suited for fall/winter. Mileage, etc.

    Lucky Tiger is great, great stuff for shave burn. It's on my short list to replace someday now that I'm out.

    My wife got this in N.C. Printed in 1911, it's an unsurpassed thematic study and devotional Bible, for those of you so inclined...similar to the Thompson Chain Reference but simpler and better, imo. This makes 2 of them we're putting away for when our girls are older.

    Excellent shape for over 100 years old. My favorite Bible is currently falling apart. :(

    I'm sure you've looked into having it rebound. I did for one some years ago but found quality work to be out of my range at the time.

    @gorgo2 Not worth it. It is a newer Bible. It is just falling apart. There is however a Modern Translation of the KJV coming out in just over a months time. I have been waiting for it for a long time. Just message me and I can give you a little more information if you would like.

    Please do. I heard something about that a few months ago, then nothing else, so I forgot about it.

    I just picked up my tub of the new RazoRock Artisan “Classic”. It is on deck for tomorrow. Good strong marzipan/almond scent as expected.

    Ingredients: stearic acid, water, coconut oil, potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, fragrance

    I grabbed a bunch of NOS Kromasharp Paslanmaz Çelik (Stainless Steel) blades from 1991. They are in good condition and a product of Turkey. Kromasharp was a branch of Permasharp and made under Permasharp's observation. Gillette bought this firm years ago, but Kromasharp is not producing any products anymore. Ok, enough for the history.

    Good day at the Post Office. Capt. Scott of Captains Choice fame sent me some of his "beta" Sandalwood AS to test and included a sample of his Capt.'s Choice Shave Soap.

    I was fortunate enough to win 2 bottles of Fine Italian Citrus AS which arrived today also.

    I finally ordered some Cold River Soap Works soap last week, the Bergamomt & Bay soft soap. Larry kindly included samples of the Savon #1 and Savon #2 to try.
