Ahhh, sometimes they jump out at me (like the Sandpiper A.S. did when I ordered my first sample A.S. set from you .
I sent away for the Autumn Glory post-shave balm, and received along with it a sampler of the Scots Pine Sheep Bath Soap. Both have an excellent, woodsy aroma, which I like.
Nice shave this morning with the menthol Grapefruit scent. Bright, citrus scent and the menthol isn't that pronounced. It's a cool lather. Quite enjoyable.
My flu fever just broke, so I finally felt like shaving. Coniferous seemed like a logical choice for removing the three days of growth. I lathered up with a Stirling Boar, and shaved the first pass with a RazoRock 37 Slant, and another pass and touch up with a Fatip Piccolo. The Slant is smooth and effortless at knocking down growth, but doesn’t cut cleanly for me. Maybe I’m using too light of a touch. The Piccolo will keep me BBS for the next 12 hrs however.
You must live in the Great Lakes area +\- a state or two. I placed my order on the 14th and it’s still in Decatur, with an ETA of the 28th.
Well I’m not much of a detective! I’m in Oregon, and unless it’s something from Amazon, it seems to take forever.
Living an hour away from a major international airport probably helps. The Stirling is definitely worth the wait though! Sent from my SM-G960U using Tapatalk
I thought I was being clever one time when I ordered from West Coast Shaving. Imagine my surprise when the order finally arrived from New York! Phoenix Accoutrements arrives quickly for me though.
It’s definitely worth the wait! I have enough soaps to last until 2025, so I just remind myself that before the internet and Prime, orders used to take a while. And I’d rather support shaving specific companies than Jeff Bezos.
What is that small bottle I spy at the bottom of your photo? Nothing I've seen on the website. More info please.
\\ I had some difficulty with WCS too...should have stuck with the M family(Maggards)...anyway GETTIN BACK TO STOYLIN.....
Right....in this new world of "The Bigger The Better", or "It's All About Money". I do find it interesting that housing developments now exist where Stapleton was.
There is a great shopping center there now which also houses the largest Outdoor World (Bass Pro-Shop) in the state, along with several unique and interesting restaurants.
I'm glad you brought us back on topic. Course I might have had something to do with taking us OFF it (chuk yuk ykuk).
