Nothing really special. I keep seeing guys talking about the new Cella Bio, so when WCS had their free shipping the other day I grabbed a tube. I couldn't resist $8.05 out the door.
What are you unpacking/ opening today, show pics or video, we love pics

Have been having a touch of BAD lately and bought 4 brushes on Yaqi sales & discounts recently, I like sales and when I see something I like I impulse buy when it seems like a bargain. 
New 1st Yaqi 24mm boar brush with a Ferrari handle, first cleaning it shed some very fine hairs like they said it would. Yaqi does not make many boar brushes and seem to do small batches.
Have some great shaves! Stay & think safe in these times!

Every man has the right to be weak when put before a Yaqi sale! Congratulations! Yaqi boar! I knew i had forgotten something! Damn! In my last order, i asked Yaqi why they don't use the new handles to the badger brushes too. They replied that they will forward the idea to their factory. Maybe you should do the same for boars!
Visual and flexatory it’s the same blade (abelt the etching)

Yaqi boar brushes are rare, they might not have expertise like other boar brush MFG's, Yaqi makes excellent synthetics and Badger brushes but maybe boar is not their bright spot of brush Manufacturing?? They mentioned that this knot would shed and they where right but after a few cleaning we will see! The brush did not smell of animal funk or at least this one and at the moment I'm using the Matic59(Youtube) way of breaking in a boar brush from a old Italian barber formula he found out about by having the brush bristles emerged in cold water 24 hrs and then rubbing on a towel for 5-10 minutes and then re-lather with shampoo a few times and into the fridge for another 24hrs + rub on towel a 2nd time and then dry out to get the tips to split some more & then ready for normal use.(quick way to break in a boar brush?) We will see the end results.

I don't know, I prefer the West Indian Limes, in the green box. Both smell amazing, though.
By the way, if anybody likes a really nice bath soap, it doesn't get any better than Truefitt and Hill's bath soap in the West Indian Limes scent. A better scent, even, than the cream. A fantastic bath soap. Pricey, but lasts for months, and makes every shower amazing.
I have the exact boar brush as pictured. Unused. They sent it by mistake. You can have it for the price of shipping if you’d like.

I smell like a Christmas pudding
A Razobrite bath and a wonderful English Gillette Goodwill.
Kicks way above its paygrade imho.
This actually arrived on Wednesday I think - but getting my wife ready for her move to Canada (I follow next month) has taken priority
She left yesterday so I took this out and gave it a nice cleaning this morning and can't wait to shave with it!!
Your absolutely right. It feels like quality in the hand and performs even better. The blades are surprising as well. Got a BBS shave yesterday and another today. This will be the razor that takes my recommendation for beginners.
Did not yet try if the razor is a like any blade thing which would make it a great cheap travel razor.
If you like the kcg blades try to find Gillette platinum light blue for me it’s twin with another name.
