Well for finishing my studies I said that I'd treat myself to a Simpson Chubby 2. So I shall see.
OSP sandalwood
Maybe some hones, got a 400/1000 stone for my tools but dont think the SR will like that.
A strop if the SR takes hold.

What have you got your eye on for your shaving den in 2017? Anything you particularly want yet?
I'm after a Rockwell 6S and a Chubby 2 style brush in Silvertip Badger although I'm yet to decide on the maker it will probably be another Vlad Ferdman as he is so easy to work with. I'm getting a Chubby style as opposed to a Simpsons as I really do not like Ivory coloured brushes or the Simpsons sticker. Apart from a couple of new straights that is about it I think.
You didn't want anything 7 days ago lol

Just whom do you have to sleep with to get a Wolfman?
Probably with no one.

I have a cased and unused Robert Williams 6/8" custom (2012) which I designed myself, I think it is Spanish point or barber's, worked spine, elegant long tang, which I have never used - so I have had thoughts that I can open a "WTT with your Wolfman priority ticket number" thread here or over at TSN...

Actually I have two of those Robert Williams razors, paid $500 (if I remember well) for each 4 years ago (with an 8-month wait), and have never used them.
Both cased, both untouched. Not a great straight shaver myself lately, and if/when I get back into the sport I'll use other beautiful straights I have in my collection (C.V. Heljestrand MK 31 etc.) so cashing in on the gorgeous Robert Williams customs may be an option at some stage.

Already committed to a Rockwell 6C Gunmetal hopefully arriving March and the ATG Wickham Soap.

Things I am definitely going for at some point in 2017:

OSP Soap, Bay Rum possibly, not tried OSP soaps yet but as I have quite a few soaps and creams still untried in my stash there is no hurry.
A Straight Razor and strop, probably a Gold Dollar but will continue to research ideas here and on TSR.
Thayers Witch Hazel, Lavender and Lemon as these are untried.

My long term wish list contains the following so I may get one or more of the following in 2017.

Fendrihan Scientist Razor
Seygus open comb probably in red
Edit: Executive Shaving Co. Claymore 2

D.R. Harris soap, Windsor or possibly Arlington
Valbora soap
Floris No.89 soap
Fine soap of some sort
Stirling soap Texas on Fire

Simpsons Chubby Synthetic brush

Pinaud Clubman After Shave
