My first shaving scuttle ..... Naked Armor from Amazon.
Two shaves with it so far, and with the proper brush and cream ..... a magnificent warm rich lather.
Did I "need" to buy it ? --- of course not ! But did I "deserve" to buy it ? --- Absolutely !

Leaf for the wife, Twig for me, and 10 Gillette Platinum Plus to add to the growing vintage blade collection.
I liked it so much I ordered another one in silver tone.
Great choices @MyOldKentuckyHome! I’ve got a Leaf on order - I was talking to one of the owners of Agent Shave last week, and he gave it a high recommendation for a head shave, so I decided to take a shot!
I hope you realize that you have to pack up all this “stuff” you’re buying and truck it up to Canada.
Did the Leaf come with the rubber grip installed or did you install it before the picture? I just ordered a grip for my niece’s Leaf. She loves her’s. I use one for head shaves and got a Twig through the Kickstarter. It’s very nimble and I like it a lot too.
@RanTan the Cool
The Leaf is second to none for head-shaving. Cartridge, Headblade, DE, injector you name it, the Leaf wins. Takes a little getting used to though technique wise.

We installed it before the picture.
Actually a really good customer service story to that - I didn't even notice the silicone grip until after I ordered and I sent an email asking if it could be added to the order to avoid a separate shipping charge. By the time they got the email the first had shipped but they gave me a coupon code for free shipping for the grip.
Castle Forbes, although i read good reviews on CF, the scent is really nothing great
that’s disappointing that you didn’t like the scent. Have you tried using it? If so, how does it perform?Castle Forbes, although i read good reviews on CF, the scent is really nothing great

, I'll try it tomorrow
... if it's as good as the reviews it gets then I'll still be happy
Pretty sure most of the raving about Castle Forbes scent is about the LIME one, not the lavender. Should shave great, though.not tried it yet, only received it about 20 mins ago
I just acquired the exact same razor from the B/S/T here. I have used it three times so far. I really like it! You will have to give us a shave report once you've had a chance to fire it up a few times.
I'll maybe order the lime one this week too then
Mail call! Received this gorgeous Hide & Drink leather razor case today. The bag in which it came is itself a beauty! Super cheap on Amazon.
Just received a RR Lupo DE. Will try tomorrow. Daily shaver. Now I need to find the right blade.
