just found out my Clubman shampoos will be here on Jan 10-but that seems like quite a while to me. Maybe it means Corrado Cutlery, in Evanston IL(a company co-owned by the Clubman website owner)is being swamped with other orders.
Yeah did a Black Friday Pre-Order for The SE Razor The General.. from Colonial Razors... Can't wait till it arrives
Jac Zagoory makes some really interesting pieces here in the US. Mostly out of pewter. A lot of pen holders - that can also double as razor holders of course They often come in two sizes and the larger ones often sell for $150 or more so I've just been admiring but not actually got one...until tonight when I was able to pick one up for a fraction of that cost (actually less than what the mini ones sell for). Not sure if I'll use it as a pen holder on the desk...or as an obnoxious way to hold a razor during SOTD photos. Oh the possibilities. The one I got is his "Atlas" model; (Short review of it here) Using pen holders for SOTD photos is not really new though - Simone Favale has done it in some SOTD photos - with, I think great success; (That particularly holder is a resin one for about $28)
Finally won a vintage Simpson Wee Scott brush (this one a Hoffritz c/w case). I've bid on a number of them the past couple years but was always outbid....til today. [/URL]
Just put in another myself LOL.... Just ordered some Bar Soap from Soap Commander ( Honor x2 and Respect x1 ). and The General Razor will be in the mail next week on its way home
I should really exploit this opportunity more often. My aunt, who lives in South Africa, is once a year in the US and here in DK, so if I time it right I can get her to be my transport of shaving goods I just saw a photo from my cousin, who received the goods for me... man that Soap Commander jar is quite big! 170g of soap for only 15 USD - that's quite a deal actually.
