What do you have in the post right now?

Ok. I may have out holiday, @Holiday. Here is the brush I already had coming from TF. I grabbed another brush and then to add the crowning glory, happened across some matching shaving soap.

Matching soap to what I call the Buck Rogers

I passed on the badger brush I had my eye on and grabbed this one instead.

Ive decided to call this one blue ice and the matching soap.

I've been looking for an excuse to purchase one of these beauties for a while. Yesterday I had my 20th and final day of radiation therapy for prostate cancer, so decided to give myself a little gift to celebrate. Now comes the wait for PSA levels to lower, which will be an ongoing journey for some time.

Wishing you strength and success during your journey to recovery!

I'm surprised the second one didn't get snapped up earlier as I was tempted but just couldn't pull the trigger
Great scores and the soaps match both brushes very nicely.

I was surprised both were not gone and the Myrtle badger as well. These it may have been simply that they have a synth knot. It was the iceberg soap that decided me in the end.

I remember watching both those brushes being made. Nice purchase and enjoy.
Nice soaps as well.

Congratulations on both accounts @bernie01 Wishing you a speedy recovery and many years of good health.

As others have said mate, all the best with the recovery!

Nice pairing @Ebonysw45 you are up there with @Gargravarr and @klinker. A different brush to match artwork on every tub. I don't feel so BAD ( ఠൠఠ )ﾉ

Oh, my paltry brush collection isn't even in the race. Even if I bought a new brush every week, I think I would struggle to catch up with most of you guys

WOW!

Real Ivory and dead badger, be careful who you show this to!

Super nice brush, details of size etc?

Agreed, even though I'm a synthetics man, that brush just oozes quality. Utterly sumptuous. From the picture, it looks like it has found a gracious home in which to reside. Well worth having the karma police hammering on your door. Great score, @Holiday!

Even now @Holiday is at home shaving with his new ivory badger. They bought it, hah.

Cheers. Sometimes the stars just align. Yes I love the pun. The unusual shapes spoke to me and the soaps just fell into my lap. Next a solid gold mink hair brush with gold dust shaving soap. I’ll call it goldfinger.

Nice one, got me. It did occur to me that the knot might be a bit big for your taste...
US$2500 would be a bargain for something like that. I could never do it, but I admit the attraction to a TOB (Thing Of Beauty).

Absolutely got me, although it would be a great score BUT ...

... I'm calling foul!

April Fool's Day pranks are meant to be conducted before noon by long held tradition - I think you owe @SpeedyPC, @Gargravarr and myself an apology

BTW - would still love a link for it. It is a TOB (but the paperwork to establish it was pre-CITES to be able to import it is a nightmare)

Want more pics of this brush, see thread here.

Well.... We’re waiting for an apology @Holiday
