Let's see your scores for the week! I'll start things off with a couple razors I was excited to find. Chrome Canadian Norfolk Blue Tip Rocket, completing the family photo
You too?? Mine was filled with two tubs of TSD soap...... Egyptian Spice & Bourbon Vanilla :love055 Had arrived probably somewhere last week, but I had given my old address as shipment address :ashamed001
I will be posting the review for this scuttle on Friday. I purchased it for $18 from Robert Becker who is a potter with a store on Ebay. The straight is a 5/8 Chris Johnson with Ivory scales purchased from Ivan (Gugi). I plan on restoring the blade. This will be my first straight restore.
WOW.......... :drool That's a really, really nice looking scuttle you have there :happy088 Looks awesome!!
Enjoy it, my friend! I have a jar of the cream but have never been able to find myself a puck of the soap.
Crazy haul this week. Ok, some of it I received Friday or Saturday last week, but that was the accessories for the Fuze. Shaving Related: Parie Creations Spiced Rum Stick (won in contest) Electronics: Sansa Fuze 8GB MP3 Palyer Skin & Chargers pack Panasonic Ear Buds (really impressed for the price) BIG PURCHASE: 2008 Hyundai Santa Fe AWD (certified used) to replace the Santa Fe that was totaled by my recent accident.
No shaving related items this week, (they're on order), but did get a new webcam in the mail today. A Microsoft vx-3000.
Tri-Plex New in the box I found this Tri-Plex at a local store and it appears to to unused with a new blade sealed and the case is all but perfect. It is a 3 piece razor like a tech but with a triangular head. This is the first one that I have seen, and I could not find anything about them on the net, but I have not looked very hard. Also, found this straight that I bought for a few bucks that is odd as it has the tang of the blade set in hardwood with pins. The scales are plastic and very ornate. Not markings at all and does have a hollow ground blade. Will N.
Nice Haul, Griz! I think I've seen a triangular razor (not sure if it was Triplex) on the bay two or three times. I guessing that straight is worth som money. I like the groove between the tang and the blade.
Elektra Nivola! I have coveted that piece of art for two years. It is quite a sight to behold and the coffee it produces is excellent. I’m giddy with excitement.
Opened a very nice smelling box yesterda ,from The Gentlemen's Corner, containing 2 pucks of Cavendish Black shaving soap and a trial size bar of Cavendish Black bath soap.
Thanks, Rodd, it's nice to be seen lol. I think things are finally getting back to normal, or as close to normal as we can get anyway. My other order came in today's post, another fine smelling box, this one from Ogallala Bay Rum. In this box was a 17.5 oz bottle of Bay Rum a/s, a 4 oz bottle of Bay Rum a/s, 3 sample size bottles, 1 each of Bay Rum cologne, bay rum, Limes & Peppercorns, Bay Rum & Sandalwood. Here's a pic of the entire shaving haul from my birthday cash. The bowl is a Myrtlewood bowl from the House of Myrtlewood in Oregon.
