What are you waiting on to arrive...?

My two-band badger knots seem to be hung up somewhere. They showed up on my USPS dashboard as expected delivery May 4, but they did not arrive, nor do I see any progress on the dashboard. I hope they are not lost.

 

Just ordered 15 one ounce pucks of Dirty Deeds soaps. Getting three each of: Bay Rum and Lime, Green Tweed, Tobacco, Vanilla and Sandalwood, and Arroyo Cactus. Plan on keeping one of each, and using some of the rest for Shavey Awards for Mayhem on the 30DC thread.

 

"The Razor" has become a bit of an obsession...I figure for now a 35mm slide is the next best thing to having the original Murphy painting. A print will look nice in the "den" until it becomes the centerpiece of the shop/cafe when I'm ready for retirement phase III.

Now I'm waiting on a Pearl

Credit where credit's due, thanks @EzraCobb , looking forward to a nice looking razor.

I really don't need yet another aftershave but I've been wanting to try Clubman for a while now and a full size bottle is barely more than the cost of a sample, so I decided to try it out. I debated trying Special Reserve first since someone mentioned Polo green when talking about it and I love me some Polo. I also thought about getting the Veg but I will probably stick to a sample size since I don't want to end up with a full bottle of what might smell like cat urine.

 

Of the Pinaud line Clubman is a safe bet. Classic barbershop scent nearly identical to Canoe. Special Reserve is Hard Core leather. Indiana Jones doing acrobatics while wearing a baseball glove leather. Might even call it a cool weather scent. The Veg? You don't choose it, it chooses you. Or not. May require SWMBO approval, and let it dry down before she takes a sniff.
Pinaud products don't skimp on the scent, last all day, and are inexpensive. Good Luck!

 

That's a TTO? Hubba hubba hubba. I likey.

 

Yup, sheridan meets instagram. Old comb, new sleek look. I was stoked when I saw it, price wasn't bad either.

 

I'm glad that I'll finally get a taste of a barbershop scent because they get mentioned a lot but I never understood how a barbershop is supposed to smell. Mine just smells like burnt hair. I still can't imagine that the Veg could be that bad even if I'm not one of the "chosen" but I think that I'll order a sample and find out soon. I read some reviews on Lime Sec and Bay Rum, and they didn't seem to get as much praise so I held off for now. They have a pretty sizeable lineup, which surprised me as I've only ever seen the regular version in stores.

Another $10 Mark Cross. Triple plated silver cleans up nicely. I'll keep one armed with an Injector, one with a trimmed DE.

Yes! I definitely am interested in your thoughts on this razor when you get it.

 

Not Shaving, but needed a more casual coat.



Drizabone oilskin Bushman Jacket. Not new, so got great price!

 

$2.96 USD and that includes shipping. I'm actually a little ashamed of myself for buying this for many reasons. Too late now!

 

Nothing. Absolutely nothing.

Well, retirement, but that's another story...

 

If I had seen that price, I would have jumped on it long ago. I did however order one for $9.99.

 

Yeah, I did the same.....

 

Now I have three knots coming from Maggard.
