    For the price, not bad. Have used one of mine twice, pretty good brush. Waiting on two more of them.

    I love it, my brush is extremely soft and no stink. I may buy a couple more.

    I've noticed that even when there are like two or so left, the next day more pop up. I'll have four total and they'd make great gifts, especially for wet shaving newbies.

    I saw those and was wondering if it was just a plastic wrapper and it made me hesitate. :signs002:

    It's possible, won't know until if it ever gets scratched. But the handles do have some weight to them. Or it could be printed design.

    You're welcome. I highly recommend this brush, this brush is a great value and if you leave it while traveling it's no big deal, a superb PIF to a friend or family member.

    I ordered some soap on Wednesday from Uncle Jon's. They showed up today. I ordered 2oz cakes of both Pipe Smoke and Gravity. What came in the mail today was 2oz of Gravity and 4oz of Pipe Smoke. I got the Pipe Smoke hoping for a Cherry Pipe Tobacco type scent. I think the Pipe Tobacco smells more like Blades Grim Smolder more than Cherry Pipe Tobacco. My Wife says it is little sweeter than the Smolder. I just hope the Cherry Pipe Tobacco comes out when I lather it. I will let you more after I use it. I can't put my finger on what the Gravity smells like. Some floral notes, maybe almost like a drier sheet. On first impressions I like the Gravity better than the Pipe Smoke.

    The other box I got today had a Autostrop strop from eBay for my Valet Razor. Looks to be in great condition, no nicks or tears and still has a visible Autostrop stamp label on it. I got the strop in hopes of taking it to a local Amish tack shop and having a new one made. I also have some Feather CS blades for the Valet and was wanting to try it all out.

    In the mail today, my Barber's Delight and Robeson Shuredge straights freshly honed by @TheFiveO. And a new patch of BBS skin on my arm............

    Went to the flea market today, and didn't find much in the way of razors. A couple that were duplicates of razors I already had and in far worse condition. What I did find?

    Got it cheap, got it full, and it smells glorious. I let my wife smell it and she said "I like it. It smells old school. What is it?". I told her it was Old Spice and she commented that it didn't smell like my Old Spice. I told her this was REAL Old Spice.

    I have been looking for a bottle of vintage. The guy I bought it from had mostly old video games that were way over priced. This was sitting amongst them. You never know. I made him an offer and he took it, then told me to come back if I felt guilty. He had the ability to say no, so I felt no guilt at all.

    All cleaned up. I had intended to replate it but, the original plating is in great shape. All of the paint is there. So what does a guy do with the spare plating money? Cross off another "want"...Eclipse Red Ring is in the mail. Lucky me.

    Package from Grooming Depot arrived yesterday. Both soaps smell great with a slight nod to Aether since it is a stronger scent. Used it today and got a fantastic shave.
