  6. Right. I have no idea what that is unless we're talking about Old Spice. I have so many soaps that they never seem to reach the bottom.

  12. Do you still have that Obsession Mama Bear's puck from years ago I sent?
  13. Sure do. I usually use the soap and EDT together. But today I changed it up to the Proraso Red I got yesterday.

    Great way to start May is with a good shave. This group of products gave me that. If you are not familiar with the sinker bowl here is it's history.
    Have a good one.




    Sinker Log Shave Bowl

    In the late 1800's Cypress was cut for timber and floated out of the bayous in mass. Occasionally logs would sink to the bottom during the journey.
    This is the wood used to make a limited quantity of shaving bowls. We have wood that has been underwater for 100+ years and who knows how old the tree was when it was harvested.
    Being in the water of the bayou the logs absorbed minerals and tannic acids to produce some amazing colors in the wood.
    To protect the wood I've used a walnut oil finish, if the shaving soap pulls the oil out of the wood you can reapply oil. I also use mineral oil with excellent results. This oil can be found at your favorite pharmacy on the aisle for laxatives. Yeah laxatives. It is inexpensive and works great.

    These wooden shaving bowls are hand-turned in Easley, SC. They're made with the utmost precision and care. When quality is what you seek, this is the product you need! The full ribbed version helps with lathering your brush. Each bowl is unique in its own due to the natural wood used. All of our wooden products have been treated to handle water for the purpose of soaking a shave brush per-shave! After using the bowl, rinse thoroughly and leave out in the open to air dry completely before storage. Get one today and try it for yourself!!!

    **NOTICE** No wooden products(treated or not) can handle being submersed in water for extended periods of time. This can cause the wood to separate, swell, and possibly discolor.

    Outside dimensions - 6 1/4" tall; Inside dimensions - 6 1/2" w at the mouth of the bowl; 5 1/2" tall; 3 1/4" w at base. *Has ribs for lathering throughout the entire inside of the bowl.

  19. Cool bowl.

    Thanks for sharing the background story.
  20. Thanks, Tim. The AdP is nice, but re-application is necessary, if you want a full day's scent.
