Congratulations passing this on from generation to generation is the only way to keep this tradition alive. I am thankful to my dad that he let me begin my shave with a DE razor and alum block and taught me how to get this done! Can understand your emotions well.

Todays shave was my fast becoming favorite Arko puck, with a Rockwell 6S topped off with Arko Cool Aftershave Cologne. And you cannot beat the lather bowl from finer accouterments.

That brush still blowing me away

When I happened across it on the maker's Etsy site, it was an instant buy. Since then, I think he's moved everything to his own site. Great look on a fantastic brush.
