    Beginning Friday we have some 80's weather ahead for a few days. Even though the humidity will be presumably lower than that in July/Aug...the Glacial Sharp Dressed Man will get some good use.

    Nice choice. That's the one the Doc has on sale now, right?(One of them, I should say).

    Yes, once it's all sold it's being put on hiatus. I think Rod said it's not being totally discontinued but won't reappear for a few years.

    The picture of it on the website is smaller than that of most of the others. Leads me to wonder if I missed it when you wrote about it a week or so ago, unless it wasn't there anyway at that time.

    Well, probably so. How can a man like me learn about the "new stuff" when everyone grabs for it? :angry017:

    Stirling Single Edge Shavette September

    Stirling Dunshire soap, on the Max Headroom List of Most Glorious Stanks to be sure.

    Stirling Badger, awesome

    Focus R28 Slim Al, a very nice replaceable blade edge forward shaving device. Nice Shaver. I grab this sometimes when I am pressed for time. Spritz of isopropyl, simple towel pat, put it away.

    Stirling Dunshire AS & EdT. The Stirling rendition of Acqua di Gio. Good to go.

    I wonder what parts of the South it resembles the most...

    No photos, but today was Stirling Gentleman and matching AS. Applied by a Bruce, and removed in two passes with an Israeli loaded Game Changer.

    This was my first time with the splash. Eight hours later and it’s still there! The scent is growing on me. The splash is more complex than the soap to my nose, and it’s allowing me to better understand it.

    Y'know, I used to think perhaps I should explain on behalf of "newbies" just what Stoylin is, and who Doc Ezlovan is. Then I decided that for every one newbie for which I provide those explanations, we get 5 more newbies They'll figure it out, just by blending in.
