The Stirling Exchange

I may give this one some attention, as a possible Stoylin Tony nominee for this "season".

Looking forward to tomorrow's shave!

 

Fantastic shave, Perry. Gorgeous Lather Catcher, btw. That handle isn't original, is it?

 

cool stirling shaves Perry..

 

Thanks, Gary!

 

Thank you, Tim! The handle is indeed not original. @Jayaruh made that handle for me. I had a metal handle that wasn't a match to the razor and he made a beautiful wooden handle to go with it.

 

I'm a Sandpiper fanboy.

 

So am I.
I'll use that next.

 

Used it yesterday--a definite fav.

 

Sandpiper is up for me on Saturday. Wonderful scent!

 

After my very first try of it(from the sample, when I became hooked), I looked at the reviews and was stunned that there were so few.

 

Jim made a black handle for my Dammy about a year ago. Jim does nice work.

The handles really do make both those razors unique and enhance their beauty

 

Noticing something interesting with this Blood on Steel aftershave....the scent appears to gain strength about 5 hours after I apply it. I wonder if any other BoS users notice this.

Another great shave, Perry. Love that Sandpiper!

 

Thank you, Tim!

 

awesome sandpiper shave Perry..

 

Thanks, Gary!

 

I've noticed a slight 'wood like' scent that comes out, but fades before delivering gentle fresh, clean, powdery whiffs well into the the night..
