    I just got that one in today - a review on the performance of the soap will follow tomorrow.

    Words don't do this beauty justice, so I'm gonna let 'em pics speak for themselves :1respect :1respect :1respect

    It is a bowl I'd be pleased to have just by itself. How's the soap?

    @TOB9595: I'll try the soap tomorrow and will keep y'all updated on how it performs ::

    The Brush is a Kent BK4 and the razor is a Dovo Prima Klang with bocote scales :)

    Additional info:

    This has to be the best looking bowl I've ever seen. But not only does it look nice, the texture and feel of the wood on your hands is beyond imagination. The bowls are hand-turned from one of the most expensive pieces of wood out there.

    The soap is made from mostly natural ingredients, no chemical preservatives are added and it smells of almond - not too faintly but not too strong either.

    If you're quick, you can get one of these bowls at gentlemans-shop.com for 40 British Pounds - that's 25 pounds off the regular price.
    But I guarantee you - this bowl is worth double the price they ask for it. ::

    NO SOAP is worth 80 bucks IMHO

    You are paying more for the bowl than for the soap..

    I gotta admit, that wood is simpl looks ultra classy; it looks like the kinda thing you want to keep alone by itself on a shelf, with no other soap tubs around it to take away from it.

    you can also find it at M.E. i believe...
