    Two Black & White 24mm Maggard synthetic knots took their place in my inventory. I like 'em.

    Same thing happened to me. I wonder if it is dissolved in something else first, maybe glycerin, it might work.

    I have considered dissolving them in a minute amount of boiling water.

    The mailman was good to me today. It was Christmas in July.

    First I got a Schick E2 with the the movable spring for cleaning and a Schick 66 off of the Bay.

    I also got a G1 with a textured head from @John Ruschmeyer.

    Then I also got a couple of handles @Jayaruh made for me. I had another G1 head. He also sent me a pack of injector blades. Thanks Jim. Speaking of injector blades, I want to give a shout out to @PLAla for the offer of the pack of Chicks. Thank you sir.

    I saved the best for last. I got a whole Schick Type G series from @Karl G. It was a pleasure doing business with you sir.

    This is the haul I gave up all shaving acquisitions for the remainder of 2017. The wife has already shown an out for me though. If I find something extra special she will let me get it, but she won't let me live it down.

    Witch Hazel + H2O...we'll see.
    ok,

    Pulverizing does not work.
    So, I poured the witch hazel into a small sauce pan and heated it until they dissolved. Not sure if heating the witch hazel screwed it up, but they did dissolve and mix. Note: did not boil.
    I'll give it a go tomorrow.

    WARNING: DO NOT DO THIS!!!
    Had to trash my Witch Hazel. It became a gooey mess!!!!!!!!

    Just in JR 191 and some Phoenix Gondolier
    I think the Maggard B&W knot looks awesome in that handle. Also Gondolier is a great scent[​IMG]

    Glad they made it safe and sound - looking good - just be sure you only post group photos late at night when the kids are in bed. :rofl:

    RyX DoH!

    Curious about those Maggard's Black & White knots. Are they the same ones sold by APShaveCo called Tuxedo? Could be shorter shipping & customs wait if CONUS.

    Maybe @Jayaruh can give an opinion on these knots.

    Just picked these 2 up. I know they are supposed to be new's but I dont I don't know much about new's. The nickel one definitly had a longer turned down comb and a larger blade gap than the brass/gold one.[​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
