Via ebay...my final purchases from June as we enter the month-long dry spell of July.... FW Engels Special....odd ebay seller photo compositions and description, 'Engles Strait razor' George Wostenholm 'Pipe' razor - nice etched blade, but needs new scales. Mysterious photos... A vintage 'Pinaud' bottle with cap. This will hold part of my next batch of bay rum.
That may be against the law in my area. Something about the handling of hazardous waste and storage....
The duck has come home. It looks rough, and I have to get scales. No chips in the blade. That's OK I know this excellent custom restore guy
The Copper Hat....Unscented shave soap. http://thecopperhat.ca/shop/copper-hat-unscented-shave-soap/ ...and Taylor of Old Bond Street Natural http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EOUM8RA/?tag=thshde-20
I am getting this pretty brush absolutely free, won it in a contest. Made by Ray Bukaty, it's cottonwood crotch-cut and ebony with a white horsehair knot.
I'm in the No-Buy July, but this trade was initiated in June. I'm waiting for an Ikon 102 Slant from @RaZorBurn123!
I really can't wait Kerry, this will be great. Thanks for such an easy transaction. Actually, I shouldn't call it that, because it was much simpler than that.
I was waiting for a package to come that was a Gift to me. It came in Wednesday's mail, but, being as I spent almost 9 hours in the ER on Wednesday I never went down and picked up our mail. also being as I could have cared less about anything and the humidity here really sucked, I never even went out side much less walked a block to our mail boxes(in the USPS infinite wisdom) to get our mail. anyway SWMbO walked down to the mail boxes and got a couple of packages. One was my new Kindle White Paper.(so now I have to purchase a AC Wall Wart. (in Amazon's infinite wisdom they no longer come with your Kindle, but they sure can add advertisements). Also there was a Beautiful New Shaving Brush and a equally Beautiful Straight Razor. Which I received as a gift. And then there was a New Soap Sample. Anyway I will post pictures of my score in a day or so, when I get enough ambition to shave. very low blood sugar aka Hypo-Glycemia and hands being numb sure sucks.
