Hello there, Koh-I-Noor! I've seen mentions of straights, pens, pencils, brushes and such. I've not seen a mention for vintage DEs, though.

Hello there, Ever-Ready restored with a Boss Knot!

Welcome back, Big Boy! This razor came to me with no handle tube. The custom antler handle needed some additional work. That's done, and she's back in the fold.

Mail Call from overseas! The Yaqi 30mm Boss Synth

IMG_20191023_202918543~2.jpg


It's a Humongous brush, I tell you. The handle is massive and could seriously hurt someone with it, haha. The Boss knot is lovely and feels great on the hands. I can't wait to shave with it.

I just received a box in the mail ...


It looks intriguing and I think I know what it is ...


It's a @Graydog Custom "Rotten Wood" Maple Shaving Brush that I was fortunate enough to win at the
Saint Sue Moore Memorial Fundraiser this year!!! He fitted it with a 26mm Two Band badger knot from Maggard.


Stunning does not begin to describe this brush. It is absolutely beautiful. It's light as a feather and the knot has a really nice density to it. I can't wait to give this a whirl in the soap this weekend!!

Very impressed with the weight of the handles and the softness of the knots. Can’t wait to start to use some of these, but before I can I still have my Omega Professions Boar and My Razorock Plissoft to try.
