    Thank you, Jim! The filter was used today to hide some of the cat fur that photobombed the setup. :D

    For $2.50, I don't think I could be bothered. It's not much money, and it's also not a total loss. You still got a razor, just not the one you wanted. The PIF sounds like the ticket! That would be a great set for a newbie to get going. :)

    Beautiful brush, Jared. I hope it got over the nervousness of a new home and the quit losing hair.

    Thank you. I never thought of it like that: nervous in his new home. Like a puppy. How cute.

    I do like the stock. It isn’t quite robin’s egg, and not quite turquoise, but similar to both.

    Whew. I'm glad you finally broke down and got another brush. You were in need of one. :rofl:
    Hopefully the shedding will cease. It is a beautiful brush!

    Excellent photo and setup. Long Live The Sheep!

    I really like the handle on that brush. That one had me wobbling around on EBay last night.

    My wife says it’s demented, but you probably aren’t far off with delusional.

    It’s MS shave brushes on EBay; the “Memphis” two band. It was $42 shipped. I highly recommend it. The horn handle is available on several of their other brushes as well.

    Nudge, nudge....

    You know he's gonna get one, right? ;)

    Can't say that I haven't been looking at them...I'm just super disciplined. Or, maybe it's the fact my wife will flip if I get another one right now.

    Remember, it's easier to hide a new brush among a dozen others than is is to hide one among three or four.

    I put a hasp and padlock on my bathroom door. I don’t let her in there anymore.

    And you are correct. She would have no idea if I added or sold something.

    That's a good theory, and I agree. But, there's other logistics at play. She does all the banking. There isn't a dollar spent that she doesn't know about. So, yeah - I'm SOL.

    I understand. I’m pretty frugal also; so getting this one and it being all I wanted it to be, made it even better.:)
