Should I buy a scuttle?

Does Shave Den have a Want to buy Area? or an alms for the poor area? haha

 

Scuttles can be awesome, especially when its cold outside! I face lather almost exclusively, but like to pull the scuttle out every now and again. I say go for it, variety is great when it comes to shaving implements! Here are some various stages of my journeys in scuttletown.

 

Yup. Right here - Want To Buy

 

I am rather pleased with my scuttle from Mr. Robert Becker. I still need to dial in the proper usage, but that is part of the fun

 

Wow the little crock pot idea is awsome

Glad to know I'm not the only one that almost always ends up with too much lather. I find it is much easier to build a nice lather also.

 

I have a Becker and enjoy warm lather. Of course, when I face lather (e.g., MWF or a stick when I travel) it doesn't get used. Also, some say there are soaps which don't do well with heat, which is why I face lather MWF but I haven't had any problems and will probably try bowl lathering the fat when I have time to experiment.

 

I have an Michal Yoresh scuttle with double walls to keep the lather warm and I simply love it. Look for these scuttles on Etsy

 

I ordered a scuttle for myself simply because it is so awkward to keep a mug in a sink full of hot water. I want to enjoy the shave, not fumble around with a mug in the sink that could tip over and fill with water. I don't know, I guess it depends on your sink, but my mug doesn't sit in there very well.
