My product from Imperial(Barber Grade, USA)arrived. Can't figure out how to unscrew the top, thus I may just lift it off. It's their 3.1 oz. Bodywash/Shampoo. Nice scent. Course I'll use it when I shave with their soap.
Well, I have A bowl, I would just have to fit the puck in and cover with something.....I don't like to do it that way, but have done so with 2 others.
Aaaaah, I wouldn't use it for the hairs of those persuasions. As for toenail, Emory Boards and, on occasion, regular scissors help me best.
My Bill Neumann(1911) shave cream arrived yesterday. Along with it, he flipped in a hand-soap(Peppermint Leaf).
Vintage Kent V8 shaving brush Already have a V6 and a V10 so I’m pretty pleased! Need to shop for a nice 26mm knot now.
17 Dec 2025 My wife's finds at a local antiqe store. I already have 2 pretty good Slims. This one is an I4 1976 model. The twist, as far as I can see is around 1963. Both were a bit grubby but cleaned up well. Since I am finishing my 30 Day focus for December, these will have to wait till the New Year.
For my last shaving purchase of 2025, I present the Schick 500 and the Gillette Adjustable, G2. I found both at the Buckeye Antiques store in Black Mountain, NC. It is a very nice store and had a half dozen other razors in pristine condition that I already had. Each had case, blades, and instructions. These two cleaned up very nicely.
My position is that it's always good to have a spare(or two) just in case something happens to the one you have.
