    And then the Blade Fairy has been by as well:

    I thought this packaging was cool...each box has 5, 5count dispensers, the metal ones...

    And last but not least, Super Stainless are my favorite blade all over the world, even Argentina:

    In case you can't tell, I have a thing for the Super Stainless blades. Of around 4200 blades, 500+ are spoilers.

    Saddle Club shaving soap container arrived and its not as nice as i would like but the price was cheap enough to expect it. The only i really want is like way more $$ so yeah. Cleaned and polished and transferred a soap into it. Lol not the soap I wanted to put into it but oh well.

    Great work ...... I picked up a wooden Wrisley Shaving bowl and filled it with Leather shaving soap.

    maybe a little progession with 2000 to 12000 polishing paper could improve the results.i use a hottub polishing kit on many projects.then liquid polish.
