What are you waiting on to arrive...?

I was wondering who picked that one up. When I went back to get the Double Ducks and the one you got.. they were already gone...

Nice score.

 

Sorry about that. Well, no, I'm not. I am glad I got it. HA! I saved you some money. You can spend it elsewhere.

 

Italian Barber's sales get me every time! I cant pass up $3 soap. And it gave me an excuse to order a Baby Smooth and my first tub of Catie's Bubbles.

 

Darn you, Andrew! I read this and had to order the Farinik Soap at that price...and then I saw Palmolive Menthol SC on sale...and then I saw Nacet blades on sale...and then I saw Natural Deo on sale... and then I saw Booster Aftershave not on sale... and now they are all well-placed in the 'Waiting to Arrive' thread

 

I have one more razor at Sport Shaving getting some new gold. It is my first vintage razor I bought back in 2011. I didn't know it at the time but a couple of years later, I discovered that it is my birth year razor: the 47 Gillette Aristocrat. I have probably another week or two to wait. In the mean time, this is what it looked like before I sent it to SS.

 

I don't see the problem....

What knot did you go with?

Manchurian fan 28mm knot, 51mm loft. That was Gustavo's recommendation and the Manchurian was the grade of choice from other owners. Hope it feels and delivers as good as it looks.

 

RazoRock 400 24mm Plissoft Knot and aluminum handle. First thing that has caught my eye in about a year. I am very excited about it.

 

I've ordered another Ass Milk of Wholly Kaw Dance of Agrumes Special Edition in tallow, now I've got 5 different Wholly Kaw tallow Ass Milk

 

Can't go wrong with Catie's Bubbles Andrew! I've got "Sunrise", "Florentine Fern", "Tonsorial Parlour" & "Barnegat Bay". Best of all they're made right here in the Great Garden State.

 

The tribute brush made by @jimjo1031 should be here Monday according to the USPS Tracking gizmo.

 

Just ordered a Mitchell's Wool Fat with ceramic dish from Connaught Shaving. The item and shipping came out to $25 (about 18 British pounds). That's much cheaper than anywhere I could find in the states. My original MWF puck is almost finished.

 

Just started using the Fat last week.
Great soap!!

 

Just waiting on a rolls razor set with pouch, even has the box and instructions! Couldn't pass it up, especially for how little it was going for.

 

Hope yours arrives. Mine was coming from the same state, even, and USPS lost it in transit.

 

I'm hoping so too. Never had a problem with that happening, just once where the seller refused to ship because he felt that the razor sold for to little, since he listed it wrong.

 

Another brush was calling me ...

A green Mennen's Lather Brush. Similar to a Rubberset or a Fuller. Well, I guess I need to start working on the restores I have on hand before this one comes in.
