    While I can't directly address this particular business, Paul, the fact is that there is a market saturation like never before. We're bound to see a lot of other companies go under as well.

    Joe...I really believe you would not change except for the shave den and helping others more than you can now.

    Yes, the Rockwell brush is synthetic. It is a good brush!

    Well, I'm on the mailing list of CTS, so I suppose I'd hear something about it. Nothing yet. No news is good news.

    James, I watched the same video. And we should point out, for those that don't know Bailey, this guy bought EVERYTHING. Over the top excessiveness. He has, quite literally, seen the light. Indeed, so have I. I just sold 25 soaps and 12 aftershaves/colognes/balms, etc. for $100.
    I kid you not when I say that I spent at least 5x that much (probably more, I didn't do the math) acquiring these items. Pure gluttony.
    The sense of relief when I shipped it all off was amazing. Now, I am not going to become a one razor, one soap, etc. kind of shaver, but my shaving dollars are going to be MUCH MORE CAREFULLY DISTRIBUTED. Good luck in your journey. You have my 100% support.

    Nope, it's already forgotten. :) What's funny is I am also a fan of Nag Champa...as an incense, not on my kisser.

    In this case, no news may NOT be good news.

    Yeah, I've watched a lot of his videos... The guy was crazy for gear!

    My goal with my journey is to show myself that the equipment is not what is needed, but if it is what I want/would like then I can indulge.

    Purchases will never stop - I have my eye on a synthetic brush and Macca Root soap (PaulH raves about it for £9), but they will be for variety and not for the sake of a better shave!

    I appreciate your support!

    Well, I'll be monitoring the situation with the company. Greg is a friendly owner-appreciates his customers' business...like Doc Ezlovan at Stoylin.

    Awesome, James. In your 100 shave focus, I predict you'll master your technique to the point at which you consistently get excellent shaves. I love my limited variety of hardware and software, but technique always gets me the shave I want. It really doesn't matter what I use. You can't buy technique...you have to develop it through repetition and experimentation. I will follow your focus with great interest!

    The only Vintage, and only adjustable in my inventory. I enjoy it every time, and it was also a gift from a friend.
