The Haul: January 2017

She's a beaut clark.

 

Today I received an excellent addition to the den. A Wolf Whiskers Blue Train Custom 12 Dimple Bishop with 24mm TGN Silvertip Grade A Badger Brush. Im'm soaking and breaking it in tonight. She's a beauty. Peter does great work and provides nothing short of a professional purchasing experience.

Beautiful - congratulations

 

beautiful brush Steve!

 

This King Pelican 14 came in today

 

In the mail today from @Herm2502 , Maggard OC on a custom heavyweight handle with some blades, which I've never used before, but will in this razor.

 

Got this little Shermack in the mail today. $9 delivered.

I'm not due for a pit shave at the moment but it does have a partly used blade included.

 

I'm pretty sure my first item of the year should have landed today. I'll know when I get home. Next week I'm expecting what I think will be one of the hauls of the year though. I had a very lucky New Year's Day...

 

Those have nice handles, do they fit other razors ?

 

Keeping us in suspense?

 

yes, but the threads don't start right at the top so it doesn't seem secure to be on with only a couple of turns. It's also quite small so it seems disproportionate with a regular razor.

 

Here's a hint...

Two Virginia Sheng knots. Now I have to get around to making the handles.

Now and then I like to use a cartridge razor in the shower. I can get a good shave very quickly. Since I have been wet shaving for a year now, my cartridges lasted until now. Refusing to pay the price for Gillette or stick cartridges I thought I would try Dorco. Besides, who doesn't want to try seven blades since 5 wasn't enough?

Thanks. I really liked using it this morning for the first time. Just a quality product. One more shot out of the box.
