Maybe try steaming it first? If that works, you can put the knot in the cypress handle and still have the beehive to put a different knot in or to...
Ask and ye shall receive! "Raspberry, Lime, Rose, Oud" And a bunch of other new stuff added to their Release Schedule today.
IIRC it's coming out in October shortly before Halloween; pre-order has to be now so he has the lead time to finish it by then. And he does...
Maggard's had a limited number of soap samples last week that they sold one-per-customer. I got one and while the scent is very well constructed...
I have told my wife to keep anything she wants as a keepsake, and that the rest should be PIF'd to the shaving communities I frequent. (Ut-oh,...
