    I really like the collection at Shoebox Shaveshop and the size of his samples. I've ordered a few things from the juice bar and the service is always excellent. Looking forward to reading your reviews.

    I bought a bottle of TOBS Sandalwood AS w/o alcohol. Have any of you tried it before? I sprayed a small amount on my wrist, and it's quite a powerful scent, more like a cologne than an aftershave. I can't imagine putting it all over my face and neck.

    I was told it wasn't good to drink aloe. What? Oh, sorry . . . that's drink "alone." My bad. ;)

    Speaking of the Shoebox ShaveShop, here's my haul today from there. Since I missed out on the Osage Rub on the National Box Tour, I nabbed a bottle. Tub of Cella, TOBS Lime soap, Astra Stainless, Astra Platinum, Ladas, an Omega 31025 Banded Boar brush, Humphrey's Citrus Witch Hazel & a lovely T-shirt.
    Gary has some discounts going on his site until January. I was able to nab 10% off. Good business!

    Very nice! There is nothing like setting sail in a nice following sea, sitting back and relax.

    I wasn't shopping for them so I didn't pay attention to the price. I just happened to be wandering through the aisles and remembered you were looking for some.

    And what I *think* is a NEW? Except it appears to be nickel, chromiun or silver plated... And I didn't see any NEWs on Achim's site that weren't gold except for the 1936 NEW Norfolk. Is it possible that the Norfolk is what I have? Does anyone know how to tell for sure? (it didn't have a case.) Here it is:

    Did they make the common-bar NEW in nickel or silver or chromium, besides the one sold as part of the Norfolk set?

    Love the 1941 Ranger Tech - that's a really nice, rare razor to add to your collection.
    The second one looks just like one of the NEWs I have.

    I have looked in Krumhotz's Gillette book and the photos are too washed out to tell a difference. He did discuss some variants in the NEW Common Bar as far as cap types. One problem is that so many people are converting NEW Common Bar to Chromium it is difficult to know if there were long common bar (not Tuckaway bar like the Norfolk) done originally in Chromium.
