    No I didn’t pick one up I’m looking for one n just wanted to know the difference. I seen one but it could have been a tech with a Acrat handle.

    Is Deep Blue Sea new? Supposed to be a pretty good match with Bleu de Chanel...

    I was going to grab the 51 Black Tip for tomorrow’s shave but all this OC madness has me considering a shiny gold New LC...perhaps the Silver Tuckaway...hmmm, I’ll contemplate the decision. However, B&M Seville will be the soap of the day along with the matching AS.

    it is an awesome scent and would go with many bleu de chanel type colognes..stirling quality and performance as well..

    The wood holder is a pipe holder. The middle cutout is for the humidor, which now holds blades and is stored under the counter.

    Thanks. I have really taken a shine to the ABC set.

    E9C8D310-DE4C-41E3-A32F-228E32B9FE0E.jpeg We have been on a bit of an OC run lately with my Sheraton and Aristocrat leading the way so today was the New LC which like the Sheraton comes from Chris Spencer at Back Roads Gold. Loaded up with a Gillette Silver Blue it really is an incredibly smooth shaver. Today’s soap was Barrister & Mann Seville with the matching aftershave splash. Love the performance of and scent of this soap quite a lot. Two pass near BBS shave and good to go to work. Finished off with Prada Amber Pour Homme Intense as a treat to me. Long week ahead. Enjoy all and safe travels.
