I smell like a Christmas pudding
I just got this aftershave to complement my soap:
They will get some very special badger knots, as usual. I don't do much else these days - Although questions like this remind me of the horse bristle that's been sitting in the drawer for months [emoji4] Thanks!Nice handles.. What knots are you going with?
Thank you!Gorgeous
Beautiful razor and an awesome find.I think this was one of my best finds on eBay. It was newly posted for bid, but had a buy it now option that was ridiculously low. I was lucky to get the jump on it.

I’m not taking this find nonchalantly. I never thought I’d come across an Autostrop set as nice as this. Especially for the price I paid. I feel blessed with good luck.
This post almost made me start sneezing and itching. I am highly allergic to cedar. Can't even IMAGINE using a cedar soap and a cedar aftershave.
that photo on the arko soap is like a magnet for salesMy Merkur Futar arrived today, along with some other bits.
Had to get some Arko to try too. The smell reminds me of a barber shave I had in Turkey, when he slapped on the aftershave....
The old spice box looks a bit battered, but the tubes ok.
The blades are from a pick n mix Laser, Shark, Treet, and Feather. The Bluebeards were free with one of the orders. Heres a pic.....View attachment 1161424View attachment 1161425View attachment 1161426View attachment 1161427

Great choice on the Executive Man! One of my favorites! I’m interested in getting the B&M Waves (maybe once I’m out of the GRUME) any similarity scent wise between the two? Or how would you describe the scent? Thank you kindly!!After 3 weeks of waiting my Maggards order finally came in, if the performance is half as good as the scent I will be extremely pleased
