Monthly Haul: April 2018

Gentlemen let's see those acquisitions in April.

Today was my 51st Birthday and I received a nice Edwin Jagger Razor with a 3D Laser Diamond Knurled handle from my family along with a travel case and a 10 pack of Feather blades.  Now it just have to take a trip somewhere.  Its nice to know I live with a bunch of enablers, or at least a crew that likes to travel!


I also received my misguided Rain Deodorant from the The Sudsy Soapery.  They accidentally sent 2 balms when my order initially came, but immediately corrected the situation and delivered the missing product.  Great customer service.

Happy Birthday Steve, and congratulations on the nice EJ razor.  I haven't seen that EJ travel case before.

Happy birthday, Steve! May your year be filled with outrageous shaves!

Some vintage pieces. Thanks to fellow member here, who gives me packs of blades for free. Thank you my friend!

Thank you, John. Kind words from one of most reputable members here are always very welcome.

Thank you gentlemen for the Birthday wishes.  I'm not too good with multi thread replies!

I received my last shaving order for awhile (I think?) since I will being buying a new ride very soon and have plenty of shaving stuff to use up!  I need to enjoy my current acquisitions for a bit - at least until the Maggard's meet up!  Today I received a package from PAA with:


- PAA Avo Nice Shave Artisan Shave Soap & AS Cologne Bundle - Made with Avocado Oil & Chlorophyll
- Planet 9 Crown King Artisan Shave Soap & CK Planet 9 Aftershave Cologne Bundle
- Crown King Vintage Style Art Deco Porcelain Frog Blade Bank

I really like the Planet 9 scent from the shampoo I have been using and have been waiting for the right time to pull the trigger on the bundle and get free shipping.  Avo tipped the scale along with my birthday so I could not resist.  I knew Planet 9 would smell great, and performance is not even in question, but I was taking a risk with Avo.  Although I haven't lather the Avo soap, I can say the scent is fantastic from the puck, and the wife really likes it.  It reminds me slightly of a floral scent, but not feminine.  I will wait to lather before trying to describe it, but my initial impression is very favorable.

This arrived from Greece today.

Looking forward to reading your opinion Ricardo.

Nice visit from the USPS today.

  

A full bottle Pinaud Fleur de France Eau De Cologne found me. Very luck to find this unobtainium liquid with its way cool embossed glass bottle

Mostly hardware..

I face lather mostly and feel the need for a bowl lathering with certain products, couldn't decide so took the leap.

The RR slab was one razor I wanted to try for a long time as well as the heavy chrome synthetic brush

The PAA Rocket brush took me quite by surprise at its size and finish and knot softness. I think it's a bargain considering it's a tribute to old hardware no longer around.

The MR SE was out of stock everywhere till @slantman put it for sale in BST along with the Occam's razor

Whipped dog HM Badger in a Luna handle along with a poor man's strop kit.

Looking forward to trying this stuff. There is more stuff on the way meanwhile !
