    What's the corkscrew tool in the case Steve?

    The consensus is that it’s for removing medicine bottle corks, back when medicine bottles had corks.

    Saturday Straights' Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Cella Shave Soap
    Red and Black Badger by Tom
    Wade & Butcher 5/8
    CWR
    Cella After Shave Balm

    The Cella Shave Soap lathered well with the Red and Black Badger Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Wade & Butcher 5/8 gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Cella After Shave Balm. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    A wonderful New years Eve shave with the one that started it all for me. The cattaraugus green lizard, Everytime I come back to this guy I'm reminded just how excellent these little valley gems are!

    Single pass effortless bbs shave with Murphy & McNeil tobac fanaile! The matching splash and balm capped it all off nicely! Compress_20231231_143051_1883.jpg

    Happy new year gentlemen! I’m starting it off right.

    Le Grelot Lotus, the brush was a two-band badger with an emerald pearl handle by @life2short1971 - software was SMN cream and SMN Tobacco Toscano AS.
