Like I said in a previous post, I am not above buying the new Clubman Barber Soap(in a jar). No brush, just dive in manually. From it's appearance it looks to be Clubman Shave Cream on steroids.
I think you better get a few hundred more to "seal the deal". Also only 50 Swedish? That seems like an uncomfortably low a amount. Also your St. Petersburg representation is surprisingly lacking. Have the boys been trading steel for vodka again?
That reminds me. I need to inventory the vodka too. You're probably onto a glitch in the supply chain around here. There are 40 Swedish downstairs still, so a total of 90. I know they are a favorite of several faithful around here but they rank a bit lower for me. Sharp Star and Voskhod have the top two spots. Or maybe I should say they share the top spot. Rapira PL, Stainless and Ladas would round out my top 5. The Astra SP are head shave blades, although they clearly work just as well on the face. I will admit, buying another 100 pack to put me over 3000 did cross my mind. I won't say that to my wife, however. Not so much because she would be angry, but at that point she might decide to use her particular set of therapy skills on me. Edit - A check of the box shows 25 Super Iridiums and 45 Sputnik. St Pete's represents.
Time today (barely) to shave, but no time to fuss with photos. C. O. Bigelow Simpson Duke 3 1947 Gillette Super-Speed Personna 74 Proraso AS Fastest BBS ever achieved since February 2014. Sorry for the brevity.
My Flabber is Gasted... Mos Def! Nacets are on sale right now at IB, fwiw... Finally, a return to sanity! Whew! I was getting uncomfortable there for a bit.
I used to go to Mexico City regularly 20 years ago. I enjoyed the city and if no for the pollution it would be a beautiful city. The altitude always gave me a headache for a couple days until I adjusted. Have a safe trip.
Tuesday Shave: This razor is a nice looking blade but just too small for me. I decided to give her a last chance to stay in the den, if it were a 7/8 there would be no question, it would stay in the den. The brush selection is inspired by Joseph, @Primotenore because it is a grey box era Simpson, it was the first nice brush I purchased. The Stirling Blood on Steel scent is growing on me, very nice. Razor: Jerry Stark 5/8 Strop: Roo Brush: Simpson Duke 3 Pre: Proraso Soap: Stirling Blood on Steel 2 drops of M-bomb AS: Stirling Blood on Steel, Stirling ASB Scent: Dior Eau Sauvage
Here's something worth "discussing"(well, isn't that part of the title here? . Anyway Bowman Barber has a "free shipping" deal good for a couple weeks. The only product they have from Agadir is a "travel case"+ travel-size Agadir stuff.. (Course I bought my first Agadir items at BB). I think they got wind of Agadir now having its own website(including Agadir 4 Men). I need to see what's available from Stoylin, Clubman,etc....or will it be the same-just limited items from those companies, with the same logic being the reason. The only thing I need from BB now is Stephan Bay Rum A.S., but I still have about 1/2 left. Maybe BB will do this "free shipping" again in the future.
