I'm dabbling Actually...this morning I shaved with my Thiers-Issard.... If possible I'd like to get one straight razor shave in per week to keep my newbie-skills fresh.
Wow, both are great looking brushes - but the Strawberry Amber one is really special. Very nice, there is something about Paladin.
Both of the brushes look great but the Strawberry Amber is stunning. You sir, have excellent taste in brushes.
Purdy, like the look of both your handles and the Strawberry Amber really stands out. My PK47 looks very similar to yours.
That is what he called it. I was hoping mine have would more marbleized veins in it but still looks pretty good to me.
Not as exciting as the beautiful brushes and razors people are waiting on, but for a newbie getting new soap samples to try is fun! I am waiting on six Stirling soap samples. Glacial Lemon Chill, Sharp Dress Man, Executive Man, Gin and Tonic, MITA, and Stirling Spice. Definitely looking forward to the menthol soaps.
I have a $70 rebate in the form of a debit card from buying 4 new tires and it's burning a hole in my wallet... so I got on the 'bay and am waiting on this baby to arrive... my first vintage open comb... Depending on how bad the minor corrosion (described by the seller) is, I may have this replated. I'm excited it has a case in what appears to be in pretty good condition!
