Henckels - Victoria Badger
Xpec
AoS AS
Diesel Fuel for Life Cologne

Nothing like cracking the lid on a new jar of Xpec - using a 1970 NOS badger brush not seen water in . . . 46 years - with sharp 1940-50's German steel . . . then biking along the ocean on a sunny morning . . . (a cafe visit and the nostalgic european lifestyle motif is complete)

Thank you very much my Friend, it was a treat to craft from a small piece of Guideon and some time with a dremmel and some sand paper. No Lathe's for me thank you

Fantastic Saturday Shaves and Photos everyone.

I am committing to a "Shaveless Saturday" this week as I do not have enough growth to justify a shave after the slaying my Feather AC DX gave my whiskers yesterday LOL:thumbup:

That's a great way to make a brush! There nothing wrong with giving those whiskers a chance to provide another rich field for your scything.
