Today’s visit to a thrift store that just moved yielded some scores. Being they moved, all the junk was gone but these two hones were in plain site. A Japanese water stone and a Norton razor hone. The waterstone is unknown, have to research the trademark. The Norton, 5x2”, is one you don’t see everyday, especially at a thrift stone
I believe the Norton stone was either made in Troy, NY or Niagara Falls, NY; it all depends on its age.
Monday mail call is PAA CaD soap and aftershave. As I'm sniffing the soap I ask myself one question. Why did I wait so long to buy this set? It's that awesome if you're into barbershop scents, and I'm a big fan of barbershop scents.
Someone moved out and tossed a perfectly sound 6' long futon/bed frame. Sanitized it, all it needed was the mattress. Being the cheapskate that I am, Big Lots had 24" lounge cushions on clearance. Good enough.
Some soaps and some A/S, pics below. Really impressed by their customer service. An A/S leaked in the box and was empty on delivery. I contacted Rod and he had a replacement A/S plus some sample soap in my hands 2 days later. He’s in Arkansas and I’m in NJ so we’re not close. Very impressed by their customer service.
