    The Amber (Burnt Whiskey) is my favorite of the three. They were well worth the wait.

    Thanks, appreciate it.
    I think I have it down to 5-6 choices now :)

    Very nice. I watched this one. I didnt know about the rare finish and was confused by it.

    Picked up another Pal with a $3.99 bid. The case is a little roached but the razor should clean up nice.

    Bought this "khaki" set for $9 as I don't think I've seen that handle before and the head looks interesting as well. The seller described it "as new" so we'll see what it is when it gets here.

    It also comes with a Tech that has a bit of a fixer-upper-look to it.

    Picked a Mickey Lee LBDS soap and milk from a fellow member. This is one of my wifes favorite soaps. Its currently sold out and not due to be produced again until next year so glad I stumbled across it.

    Nice...that's what I would do. I also prefer his taller handles, so that color combo would probably look killer.

    I'm sure you will end up with a winner.

    Heard back from Peter on it today:
    "No, I do not glue resins pieces together. Some brush makers do that, but I find that there are too many problems with longevity of the handle and also bubbles.
    I don't even attempt it anymore."


    So there goes that clever idea :)
    I'm in for two brushes...I'm thinking maybe one in full faux tortoise as I really like the look of it....gotta pick one by tomorrow :D

    I was wondering if you were watching/bidding on it.

    JUST submitted my request to Wolf Whiskers for Brush #1.
    I ended up going with something completely different than I thought I would pick (different shape, material and knot...).
    Now awaiting Peter's follow-up email and quote...once I've confirmed that I might have my very first Wolf Whiskers brush in 2-3 weeks :D
