Suribachi scuttle

[Black-Tie]

Happy Days! I’ve ordered a Suribachi scuttle from Steve Woodhead’s pottery shop. I know it’s not a fundamental shaving item but hey, we only have one life!

I’ve been reading that the Suribachi texture may damage the brush as it seems to be a bit abrasive. Have you experienced any unfortunate damage?

Here's a photo (taken from Steve's website). I chose a light-hearted tone to cheer me up throughout the gray winter.

Cheers!

Steve Woodhead makes amazing scuttles. I have two. You will love it, no doubt on that.

I never used a scuttle before. Hope it will add a wee bit of extra enjoyment.

Looks like it is going to be heavy wear on the brush tips; Suribachi bowls are used for grinding. I have his standard glazed scuttle in teak and it works really well.

I've used a suribachi for forty five years to grind gomasio, toasted sesame seeds and sea salt.

Well, that's good. At least if it won't thrive in the bathroom with soaps and brushes, it can be put to good use in the kitchen. Happy ending - the scuttle wins.

Cheers!

I've heard about the possibility of the brush getting damaged, so I use one brush when I use my suribachi bowl. So far I have not seen any damage to the synthetic brush I use. That's a good looking bowl and it should make very good lather.

Is that a Doug Smith bowl in the background?

Yes it's a Doug Smith lather bowl. He does really nice work.
