Your Christmas Order

[cesium]

Well gents, it's Christmas and I'm sure most of us have ordered some of our favorite shaving supplies as stocking stuffers. Let's hear what Santa Claus is bringing you for shaving gear.


Myself- I have a dovo shavette, an alum block, proraso aftershave and some
feather blades coming my way.

 

[JPM]

Castle Forbes Shave Cream (Lime) and pre-shave balm.

 

[dpmtherrien]

Just ordered the Georgetown Pottery's new G5 scuttle. Unfortunately it won't ship until after Christmas, but I'll still count it as a gift.

 

[Mpugh77]

Well, I am really hoping for a SR 3824 or a Rooney 3/1 and maybe a new DE.

 

[buddydog]

Trumper's coral skin food.....Anyway that's what I told Santa I wanted.

 

[MrMoJoe]

Rooney 3/1 w tortoise shell handle, TOBS Avocado Shaving Cream, Tabac Shaving Soap, DR Harris Sandalwood AS, TOBS Mr. Taylor AS, Chrome brush and razor stand.

Between now and Christmas, I've got to figure out a way to keep myself from using everything at once.

Ordered and already received from Fendrihan (fast, excellent service):

Clubman Bay Rum Aftershave
10 Personna Red blades (to give them a try before ordering a larger amount)
A Merkur Travel Razor Case (plastic, clamshell, like the old Gillette ones)

Regards

My favorite vendor http://gentlemensbest.com/default.aspx is sending me some shave cream stocking stuffers.

Waiting on Leon's Limited Edition 2009 Boar for me and a Semogue 1800 that's going to a str8 shaver buddy from Santa. Order still show "processing" at Vintage

 

[Ru4scuba?]

Believe it or not...nothing.

I have WAY too much shave kit. So, I opted to focus on my fountain pen hobby this Christmas instead

Got this off the bay last night as a gift to myself. Excited to have a NOS razor that's that old.

I think I'm getting some Nancy Boy cream from the inlaws (they live in San Fran and we're going there for xmas this year). That's probably it.

picked up some neat, relatively obscure -e.g. Gillette NACET, Gillette black 7 o'clock- DE blades from Dridiot, some soaps from TGQ, and a gift certificate to have a 'real professional' (elderly Italian barber) give me a shave whilst I sit back, relax and enjoy the Big-band music playing in the shop.

 

[spanx]

Santa's bringing me some spellbound,dragon's blood, and alum.

 

[Navig8tor]

Received most of it already but here is the list:

3 old spice mugs and 4 used brushes - picked up on the bay for 9.95.
Tabac refill puck - PIF'd the old one
Provence Sante Green Tea soap - 2 pucks because I was extra good.
Provence Sante Green Tea Cologne - because I liked the soap so much
Tallow soap from PC is on its way - it's her old spice scent
Large tube of Proraso - because summer isn't that far away
Irisch Moos Shave stick - was lucky enough to snag two from Mark at Superlather.com.
New B&B butterscotch brush - it won't be here for a while but it will seem like christmas when it arrives.
Gillette ball end tech - from the bay. There was one hour left and no one had made a bid. Too good to pass up. $10 with free shipping.

That has blown my shave budget for december, january and probably february too.

 

[Nils]

Well, I asked the Christkind (no Santa round here) for a 12c, and I ordered a supply of RP Personnas for my recently converted father.

 

[pauls51]

More T&H limes and either a Progress or an ebay Fatboy

 

[Matt P]

The wife ordered me a G5 GTP scuttle in hamada. I ordered me some Irisch Moos from Superlather.

[The Nid Hog]

Not too much this year. I hope that the monks over at Caldey Abbey are whipping up some aftershave for me between their other duties. I also ordered myself some SCS Oakmoss Lavendula to tide me over until Christmas.
