Just ordered and waiting for: - Portland General Store Whiskey soap - Tabac Original soap - Stirling Coniferous soap - Cella after shave - a leather head cover to protect the razor and blade while traveling - Omega 10086 Boar travel brush all should be here within a week or so. The head cover and travel brush are in preparation for an approximately 4 week road trip later this spring.

I am waiting on some more knots. I am going to do a brush restore, so I ordered three knots to choose from, two synthetics and a boar.
Do you know which juice? Some or most of the vintage Avon aftershaves were made to be like popular scents in their day.
A PantaRei "barrel" brush with a 28/30 manchurian badger knot. Just waiting for confirmation from the artisan
Pick up a Durham Duplex that is down to brass. Which is great because its for a Gillette OC New head. Also got a 1932 Canadian Gillette Tech (post war) oblong slots. Lastly I picked up three Maggard's 22mm black synthetic knots.
Okay, okay. I broke my no buy 2017 pledge. So boot me off of TSD, but it's worth it! Two Genco straight razors are inbound as we type! For the price, I couldn't say no. Don't tell my wife! If you do tell her, I got them at a rock bottom price!
You should like that. Especially after @gssixgun eorks his magic on it. I have four Korn razors, and several from Cattaraugus based on his patents.
that's been a challenge for me so far...at first sniff, I thought "Oh, kind of like Mennen(Skin Bracer)". But it isn't quite the same. I never tried Polo Green, other than sniffing it off pages of Men's Health, but I'd say it's somewhere in between Skin-Bracer and PG. Y'know, as I write, I wonder of the guys at Colgate tried to make something like this Avon, and it ended up to be Skin-Bracer.
Jim it was a pleasure knowing you here on TSD...have a great life and see ya at your next post here .
It was your comments (and some others) in another thread some time ago that got me looking for one. Trouble is I now have to sell a razor or two to make room in my storage case.
I wasn't expecting to win. I bid at the starting price, which was quite low, and nobody else bid. It's not too often I get lucky.
