January 2022 SHAVING Acquisitions

Wow, that's an impressive haul. It looks like you really endorse the T&H creams - good to know. (y) I've never tried them, but that could change... :unsure:

Try the T&H ultimate comfort shaving cream; it’s for sensitive skin, has no parabens (if that is important to you, it’s not to me), has a lavender scent and it’s their best performing shaving cream (for me at least).The other T&H creams I bought mainly for the scent, they were half price and the Apsley is new. 😁

If you want ultimate comfort in a shaving cream, you could do worse than buying my Wholly Kaw (WCS) La Superieure Lavender shaving cream :p

Ooh, Nordost! I've been looking for that for at least 2 years.

Strops and pastes along with a small case for 2 straights (Windrose from the UK). My descent into the straight razor abyss possibly begins. It’s highly unlikely that I will give up DEs though. A digital microscope also arrived a couple of weeks ago. Those razor edges sure look interesting under high power.

Some more goodies arrived today. I’ve never tried the green Cella and the Salter cream, so looking forward to trying them. The MWF is an old favourite.

Cella green smells very synthetic to me? I prefer the red tub.

My OUMO Titanium Compass arrived today. I've picked out a knot but haven't ordered it yet so I won't be using it for at least 2 - 3 weeks.

Also arriving today is my Blue Devil Blackheart Sassafrass handle. Unfortunately my pics don't do justice at how beautiful this wood is. The knot has been ordered but will take another week or so to arrive.

This has been unobtainium for a couple of years, so was pleased to finally find it in the new Omnibus base. (Vshod of course.) The scent off the puck is more Seville orange than smoke, but I'll know better tomorrow. So far, I don't hate it. That's a good sign.

I'm really interested in hearing your impressions on this one. I've been close to buying it so many times from Canada and have always stopped short.
