The Haul: August 2019

cool razors..

 

Kinda makes me want to look at mine and see how it comes apart. Maybe a metal handle to increase the weight.

 

i am sure you could build something well sir

 

For me personally, even tho the razor is a good one, I wish it had more weight.

 

one of my only reasons i didn't try one was because of the plastic handle..i have heard many great things about the razor and their blades..i have some vintage schick blades i will try soon.i think a heavier handle build would be a cool project..

 

Mail called today

The B&M Diamond smells very grassy like a real fresh clean cut grass does anybody owns this soap in there den and can you please smell your soap, does the scent smells grassy.... seriously Do I need to remind myself to mow the bloody lawn

 

Ordered these July 19, got them in the mail today.



Thought it might be nice to try.
The price was right, but it took a while to get from " Moscow region" of Russia.

Awesome! Well traveled!

 

Thanks
One never knows when things you order come from such far away places.

Yes, Diamond is grassy. Supposed to smell like a baseball field after being freshly mown. Also hints of other ballpark smells.

I’m really curious about Terror. What does an icy cold ship smell like? I’m really intrigued and want to buy a set, but summers almost over. Would it be a good weather soap/scent?

 

I have ordered from far away before. Most amazing was the old pears soap stick canister I ordered from Turkey. Return address was a train stop. Wrapped really cool in abunch if paper and a cloth. Pretty cool really. About 3 weeks travel.

 

Colonial Razors - The Silversmith

 

Sir, that’s one good looking razor.

 

Now you got me thinking about it, too. I've got a couple but last time I tried them thought they were too mild.

Ask and someone will shortly, or already has!

I've seen your work Jim. Can't wait to see what you come up with. Either post a How To, or let us know how much you'll charge and how backed up you get with a flood of orders!

 

very cool..

 

Like a piece of art!

 

Today I got my Ever-Ready 200 replica shave brush with 3 band synthetic knot from Heritage Collection Shaving.

 

Very nice Angelo!

 

I knew I would wind up buying one of these once I realized I would shave regularly with injectors.

Schick Type D, first key injector model.
