  2. Tuesday FedEx call is from Maggard Razors. I got 2 empty containers to store my Saponificio Varesino shave soaps and Myrsol Don Carlos 1972 soap and aftershave. 8DF7E940-5421-4F72-B02D-18443A300226.jpeg
  3. Yes I paid dearly for the Shake Sharp but REALLY wanted it.It was by itself. The LOT was separate and dirt cheap !

  5. Thanks and you were close as I think I put $155 as my top bid and was done at that point if it went higher. On deck for tomorrow to use.

  6. Big thank you to Dale @PanChango for gifting me a sleeve/100 blades of Parker Premium Platinum DE blades! I had mentioned to him that I was curious to try them after having seen they are made with tungsten, and curious how they compare to the vintage Personna 74 tungsten blades. Next thing I knew, they were on the way to me. Thanks Dale!

  7. Very Generous Dale!

    Also, I really did not need another 100 blades, but Jody had me at Tungsten, so... 100 of these are inbound.

    Thank You Enablers!
  8. As always, our pleasure! hahaha

    I've had one shave on one of these blades, in my new Pearl Flexi adjustable. It was a very pleasant blade. Obviously can't speak to durability/longevity yet. You know blades... YMMV.
  9. Recent acquisitions: Haslinger Aloe Vera; Cella; Stirling Barbershop soap and AS. Soap vessels are existing. Only the Haslinger soap hasn’t been used yet, but I’ve used Haslinger soap previously with satisfaction and expect the same great performance with the Aloe Vera. I’m satisfied with my soap stash for now, but a SV soap or two is on the horizon.

    I opened it up and was stunned on how small it is... and when i swiped it against my palm i was amazed on how soft it is.... and then i noticed a few hairs fell from it... i swiped against my palm again and its really soft.. and some more hair.... hmmmm and yeah this happened

    Lol the glue disintegrated and the whole knot fell out.... lol literally less than 2 minutes from me opening the package. Haha wow.
    Lucky for me.. 2 years ago i bought a tiny synthetic knot for a gillette brush and it was too small. Well it fits here

  20. I don’t know, but I think somebody had a new idea in contrast to the NB thread and it became the “ haul” thread.:)
