Still waiting on the Name Taker open comb and the Artifact razors from PAA. They were supposed to have arrived today but I’m hopeful they will be here tomorrow. I also put an order in to Etsy for a couple of shave soap display stands I will be using for my ongoing SOTD posts, a small mat to put on the sink to put stuff on and a gear themed 3D razor stand. Also purchased some small items from Aliexpress totaling about 10 bucks, things like a brass toothpick, a gps tracker for keys, an electric pulse massager, a gold colored razor stand, some small supposedly powerful circular magnets, a container with slots to keep extra razor base plates in, and some scouring pads for cleaning pans and such, and a toe nail clipper that advertised to work good on ingrown toe nails. Although strictly speaking, all these items arent specifically a result of my RAD, I’m guessing they are a related side effect of the affliction.
Coming soon in the mail from Maggard Razors as Declaration Grooming is CLOSING DOWN!! Just two tubs of the Unscented.
Coming soon in the mail, another stainless steel Weber Razor without the black coated head... FINALLY GOT IT!!
Arriving today are some After Shaves and a Haverford scented Candle from Stirling Soap and another Razor Stand ‘bronze’ from Ali-Express. Arriving later in the month is a Motorcycle Battery for my 2003 Honda Shadow Spirit, a Battery Voltage Tester, and a stick of Wolftra Moisturizer with vitamin E in it, all 3 of these from Amazon. Also on order is a Super Slant L3++OC Base-Plate to add to my L1++OC and L2++OC plates that I already have on handles, a .84 ‘Jaws’ Plate to add to my 1.05 Open Comb plate and .68 ‘Jaws’ plate for my Game Changer razor, both from Italian Barber. For anyone that may not know, a ‘Jaws’ base-plate is an Open Comb with less teeth where the space between the teeth are greater than they are on the standard Open Comb. I also ordered 5 bottles of the best Shave Milk that I ‘ve ever had the pleasure of using from ‘The Shave Den Shop’.
A Chubby 2 Super Shave Brush directly from the Isle of Man for, get this, 120 GBP which is 167 USD, thats half of what it costs anywhere I’ve looked in the US. A 1970 long handle Black Beauty Razor in what looks like excellent condition that I got from eBay for 21 bucks. 5 Bottles of shave milk from TSD, 2 Shave Soap display stands and a Shave Mat from Etsy, and a stick of Wolftra moisturizer with vitamin E from Amazon to mix in my wax melt warmer with Shea and coconut oil for my homemade moisturizer.
I ordered some Haverford Post Shave Balm by Stirling soap, (currently out of stock at SS) from G&C after searching far and wide for it but a few days later I received a refund and an email saying they aren’t shipping to the US. I’m still looking to purchase this Balm to go with my Haverford Shave Soap and AS Splash.
Gift & Care can ship it to Australia, because, Australia doesn't charge extra tariffs to European countries.
