Enjoyed a birthday recently and bought a couple of items from the Mens Room Barbershop. I ordered the Parker Variant SB, Proraso balm, and an empty tin. What a haul of sample items!

I do not need more soap but can never resist vintage Tabac in older style packaging. I was expecting to receive two refills but in a welcome surprise I received two full soaps, including the twist up containers. Not my oldest examples but a fantastic addition to my collection 
Those were missing from my boar family. Not anymore 
Just arrived. Timeless TRBR adjustable brush. The rubber collets holds the brush in place without adhesive. From left to right 28mm to 20mm.
Also in the mail Arianna and Evans B1 Lancer push to open butterfly. My curiosity overcame my wallet.

I was checking out the handle at the Maggard Meet up. It is very interesting just not sure I would be swapping out knots on a regular basis to make it worthwhile. If it wasn't a hygenic issue it could be good for a shop to lend out (with a deposit of course) and be able to test out different knots to find the best fit for you.
Part of my research plan. Different knots, same knots different sizes. All the while holding the handle constant. It's trivial to swap out the collets so if you aren't experimenting, just keep the knots in their collets. I think you can order the collets separately.
I luckily haven't fallen into the brush or razor rabbit hole yet, just the tobacco scent soap hole at this time. I don't have enough real estate to go down those paths yet.
Just received this today. 5 months into this great journey and I am a spry 54 year old. The mug is in mint condition and the brush alone was worth the deal. The seller even shipped it for free. It was her late husband's and was moved that it was going to a new home to be used instead gathering dust in her closet.

Came in different boxes, but belated Birthday gifts to myself.
After years of diligently running down my software supplies, it was time to restock some favorites.

Can you have too much Yardley? No! A second sealed boxed Yardley, shown on the right, with one I already own on the left, and in front is the soap it contains.
