Thanks, Chris!

Sir Mike, there is an eBay seller offering hammered and dimpled copper shave bowls, with an indent suitable for a small soap puck, works nicely.

Click here to view quoted image.

Yeah, I like the idea of copper so it wont break if I drop it but I am probably too cheap to dish out that kind of money for one! It was all I could do to buy this Shavecraft bowl and I guess I didnt pay enough attention to its size or I probably would have skipped it! I will check them out though!

Thx.

celestino - very cool translucent handle
sandstone - there must be a theme with the background movie shot - I'm intrigued
skypsyd - how's the Barbasol pair with the YSL?
782sirbrian - cool wood handle
mkiraly - nice desert shot
sarimento1 - that bar pic is too cool for school!

Tallapoc - cool silver
Roderick - cool brush
witeq - nice B&W
prometeo - tabac dedication
UngerWoo - cool brush handle
Windblows - pic makes Arko seem classy
sir_mike - cool bowl - and dig the WSP Vetiver as well
Chrisarelli - nice brush
BRuhling - very nice!

Thanks! I like the bowl, just wish it was a little bigger! The WSP Vetiver I just got today and it seems good! I also have the WSP Sandalwood, which I will try out tomorrow!

The reviews are my pleasure as I just try to share some thoughts while trying out ATT plates, other razors, some soaps and blades! Just remember that I am pretty new at this DE stuff with only about 3 months in so take my writings with a grain of salt!!!

Thx
