and I'm blaming you! :lol:

They had the plastic bottles in the shop, but I just couldn't resist the classy glass one. Yes, the scent is very fleeting and it BURNS somewhat compared to, say, Old Spice or Tabac.

2 nice semogue brushes received today, loverly brushes finish is a little iffy though. Can't wait to use them.
 
A small bottle of Ogallala Bay Rum, Lime and Peppercorns a/s from Badger and Hone. Came complete with 2 of their towel things.

Excellent service, by the way.

Glad to be of service. Remember: one man's burn is another man's feedback.

(At least you have a lovely looking bottle to bite on.)

Not with MBs but with Colonel Conk's glycerin soaps. Went well enough. Nuke it at about 10 to 15 seconds a time until it melts. Don't overdo or you'll cook the scent out, and possibly burn the soap.

Thanks, give it about 30 secs, probabily slightly too long but it cooling nicely on the side now

A translucent Arkansas stone, a gift from Mikael :mrgreen:

It's nothing to do with shaving really because it's a too small for razors, but it'll certainly get used. Here it is amongst some bigger ones:

The Washita at the top is 11"x2"; the new arrival is 3 1/2"x 7/8". Thanks again to Mikael, and to Neil Miller for forwarding it.

If they have Made in England on the blade, they'll be of no use to you at all. I'm willing to dispose of them for you gratis.
