Is one of those soaps named after you, or is it s coincidence?

Nope, I was asked about my favourite scents and it resulted in this beauty :bravo:

Had a peek at paste-and-cut and that stuff looks [sic] to smell wonderful. Particularly appealing to me were Mycroft and General Ledger (not being the biggest on agrumes). Seems the producer only caters to the national market, am I right?

The scents are out of this world - the maker puts a lot of effort, time and money into the them :thumbsup:

I am sure he would be more than happy to send them out worldwide - just send him a message either through Paste & Cut or through the Australian Private Reserve page...

*blush* So used to things popping up as the first item in searches that I didn't take enough time to see that his website appeared further down. Dropped the chap a line now. Thanks! By the way, your take on the Fougere? The General Ledger, that is. And Mycroft too, though I think it may be very similar to many already in my den.

A couple Stirling stainless steel razor handles arrived, the Ft. Worth on the left and the Dallas on the right. They were nicely packaged and accompanied by a shaving soap sample. Both are grade 3, meaning a combination of satin and polished, but I don't see any satin. They have some small tooling marks, but for $37 each shipped I didn't expect perfection. Both have a good feel in my hand.

Just received this beauty in the mail today. 26mm Silvertip on an L7 handle. This is my first hand-made artisan brush; Mervyn even washed it 5 times and it smells fresh and ready to go. Using it tonight...can't wait.View attachment 9552 View attachment 9553 View attachment 9554 View attachment 9555 View attachment 9556 View attachment 9557

I like colors on brush handles. I have only seen one brush with a significant amount of white that I really like - your Cadman brush pictured above. I have a Cadman custom 4 color brush on order - may need to email Mervyn and expedite shipping.

The brush I ordered was the white with black but green is my favorite color so I asked Mervyn to fix me up. I really like that brush, it's so soft and lathers like champ. I am very interested to see how your multi-colored brush will look when complete; please share pics when you receive it.
