Agree, the other EDT's I've bought from them all last a good while. Must have just been the bar soap that was a bit weak in the Blu.
What are you unpacking/ opening today, show pics or video, we love pics

Arrived Today.

GEM MMOC. The case is not in great shape, but the razor is sweet.
Used it this evening with only a warm water splash as prep. DFS in two passes with a GEM Persona Super Stainless, C O Bigelow cream, and a Semogue 2040 HD Silvertip.
This came yesterday just before we left to hang out with a friend for the evening.
Oooooo. I can hardly wait to see them. I acquired them over 10 years ago and was finally able to send them out for reconditioning.......
Oh those look amazing. Chris "Cap" Smith did a wonderful job cleaning these two, he definitely lived up to his reputation as one of the best in the razor restoration business. They luckily didn't need replating, just a good cleaning, polishing and a touch of straightening on the guard bar on one, also blade gaps where checked and set.
Now I can't wait to shave with one, this will be my first shave with a Fatboy, even though I've owned two for over ten years.

Those Fatboys look great! Enjoy.
Thanks I should get to shave with one tomorrow and I'll probably pair it with another razor and post in The Daily Double
Timeless titanium .68 sb.
Couple boxes showed up:
Needed an appropriate opening tool, found this, it'll work:
What a nice note, hey you're welcome Rod:
Dig this, nice low key scent.
What's that thing, a lizard? Wait, it's a Grizzly:
Nice note again, these people are so polite!
Friendly looking bag, I mean there aren't any spikes or anything on it:
Wonder what's in it?
Two words. HOLY CRAP.
John is a true artist and craftsman extraordinaire, really glad I was able to snag this.
Happy shaves guys.

Thank you!
After Saturday's MMOC, today saw two more arrivals.
First up, all the way from Italy ...
Full blade Universal shavette, Lama Intera and a truck of Derby's.
Next ...
Torrey 232 to compliment my "Our 136". Guess I need to get it cleaned up and honed by next Tuesday.
And now I settle in for the August GRUME...

Adding to my soap and aftershave program, which is improving greatly this Summer. These after recent MdC Fougere, MdC Agrumes and SV Felce acquisitions. PannaCrema Nuàvia Blu incoming soon.

This is Top 5 of interesting packaging. Nothing will likely beat the Fruit By The Foot incident.
It’s still not what it looks like.

You need some time in the Dawn.

well I received these 3 RazoRock soaps in todays mail !! A new shaving brush:
I’m not a fan of those flask type bottles Stirling uses. Opuntia is great smelling stuff isn’t it?
The Opuntia is very nice as is the Felce, so much so that I have the Manna di Sicilia incoming (also 4.3 beta formula). I am new to SV soaps and I am very impressed. Enough that between the SV, MdC and Tabac, I could pass on all other soaps for the next couple of years.
As for the Stirling bottles, they are rather utilitarian in the flask style, but they fit nicely in my cabinet when stacked side by side. It's the juice on the inside that really impresses me and a great value as well.
