I love the MSC base, so easy to get a good lather from especially if your in a hurry. I need to try a few more.Nice little set of master soap creations sat waiting for me when I arrived in Cape Town....sadly all of our bags, obviously including my razor and brush, did not, damn

Aye been down here half a dozen times, the Mrs is from here so we come out to visit family. Some of the best steaks I've ever eaten have been down this way, and the weather is decent as well so can't argue! Luckily bags actually did rock up on the following days route so all good now.Those MSC sets look great! Shame about the baggage
On the bright side, you are in Cape Town. I had a lovely seafood meal in one of the restaurants on the quayside there a few years ago that I still remember fondly, and one of the best steaks I've ever had, served by a gentleman named "Blessing" who, when I asked him to let the chef know how pleased I was, was really happy cos he said it was the chef's first day in the new job so he would be extra happy to hear it. We also managed to get a clear day on Table Mountain so it was us who were blessed. Hope you get reunited with your bags soon.
Excellent, I'll be giving it a bash first thing so fingers crossed it works well!I love the MSC base, so easy to get a good lather from especially if your in a hurry. I need to try a few more.
Are C&H in the US? If they are, @TobyC can probably recommend some good US boar sourcesWife just bought me these two brushes today out the blue.
Both Chisel & Hound although she didn’t realise they didn’t come with knots.
Iv emailed him so getting one with the F14 Fanchurian but unsure what to do with the second.
I am a Boar fan so that’a probably the way i’ll go. i have asked if he can get his hands on a nice boar if not i’ll do it myself View attachment 86939View attachment 86938

They are for me, and I've got a bunch of 'em. They will shed a few hairs on the first two or three shaves, and they aren't softies, they have balls!Nice 1 Toby thanks
You reckon these are top drawer
Nope, 20, 24, and 28mm, but they are thick and full, you have to have a 30mm hole for the 28mm, so the 24mm should be perfect in a 26mm hole. 1 1/2 - 2mm over is normal, ask your brush guy.Dosent seem to be any 26mm
Hi Toby i received an email early this morning from Chisel & Hound and he’s just unsure about the knot being the right size.
By the way that is one top brush
