What are you waiting on to arrive...?

Gold STAR DE razor

Looks great!

TSD Lanolin Shaving Soap
TSD Aftershave Splash

Both are coconut.

 

The end of one of my pucks, so I can justify buying more soap.

 

Patiently (well maybe not patiently) waiting for my new Brother's Bristles Silvertip brush to arrive. It shipped yesterday and will most likely be here Monday.

My Merkur Futur that I got in a trade arrived today so I will have a futuristic looking brush to go with the Futur.

 

Arrived today. Will try tonight. Thanks, TSD.

Oh, that is a lot of stuff incoming.

 

Just scored a Wilkinson Sword "Sticky" i been a sucker for "cheap" made razors here lately. Just trying them out to see the quality of shaves on the cheap. Its coming all the way from Portugal with free shipping! Cost $36, so i don't think i over payed to badly for this one. Also have a Wilkinson Sword Classic coming that should be here before the Sunday shave hits!

 

Sorry for bidding you up a dollar - I place the original 35 dollar bid as a low-ball offer.
You got one heck of a deal.

I did a bit of a write-up of mine over here if you're interested.

 

Haha! I had a strange feeling someone from the den was bidding against me! lol jk. No big deal my friend you had no idea we was bidding against each other. Your write up actually inspired me to chase one of these little jewels down, thank for your write ups there quite helpful and you do an outstanding job my friend!

 

Well I just threw out the $35 starting bid kinda hoping no one would spot it
Grats, it's a great razor and you don't see too many of them.
Seems like you also got the US-market one so it supposedly a tad more aggressive than the European gray-cap one - but it's still very mild

Looking forward to hearing your thought on it!

 

Thanks! It felt like a good win to me! I had the same thoughts when i shot out $36 on it, i wasn't going to pay over $40 haha. When i get it ill be sure to do a small review of it with a SOTD photo!

 

It does look kinda sexy in photos
​

​

 

haha i agree! It definitely has a look of its own almost kinda futuristic!

 

Made an exception from my No buy until July to buy this.

 

That would be hard to pass up.

 

It was! Hahaha I wanted to not buy it. But it was just to good to pass up about 45$

 

Weber's with original head sell for over $150 these days. Crazy but true.
