How do you like the Crabtree & Evelyn soap, Steve? Like that shine on your Schick.

I really like the C&E Indian Sandalwood. I have the latest formula, but understand some have had issues with the previous iterations. It is too bad they discontinued it, probably because of its past reputation. The Schick is outstanding and I believe one of the best values out there for vintage gear based on price and performance. The shave is just outstanding and near perfection for me.

Exquisite photo, Chris. Placement is superb. How did you like the Bath House soap and balm?

Thanks, Ron. My initial impression of the Bath House soap and balm is very "favorable". I like the scent so much that I ordered the cologne as well.
