Welcome to Trick or Treat Season! While it may only be shaving, we have to take the care and feeding of our hobby seriously! Have at it lads.

Well I guess I'll kick off the acquisitions for the week. It's a tough job, but someone has to do it! Received a bit of a treat today. My faithful UPS driver braved the hardships of the plains and made it to my door unscathed with the GOODS from Baudelaire Soaps. (http://www.BaudelaireSoaps.com) To make an ensemble with the excellent Provence Santé Shaving Soap I ordered the following:

Provence Santé Thé Verte Eau de Cologne
Provence Santé Savon Verlain
Provence Santé Thé Verte Aftershave
Nice web site and really helpful staff at the other end of 800-327-2324! :thumbup:

Since the birds have flown the coop it has been quiet here in the Score! So to brighten things up, here is êshave's mini traveler with 5 different creams, 3 aftershave creams, and the artwork brush, ceci est un pipe in silver tip.

I just remembered I have some samples from Eshave. They are sitting on my desk along with all the other samples I haven't gotten to yet.

Cool brush. Looks kind of like a woman's slipper....

Here's one of my latest razor acquisitions:
I saw it on Ebay this morning with a "Buy it now." I guess you snatched it. Good work Rik. :biggrin:
Another razor acquisition
I didn't want to take a chance of loosing this one. Dorko at the top of my list of preferred razors.

Rik, have you tried the Wonderedge yet? How does it compare to the Dorko razors?
My favorite razors are those with wooden scales.

The Wonderedge along with another Dorko and a Puma will be on it's way to Randy Tuttle this week. My honing skills are to the hair splitting level, but I'm not confident enough, nor do I feel I have enough honing experience, to try an hone one of these myself. The Discuswerfer is being honed by John Crowley.

TJMaxx had a clearance rack with an additional 25% off. Floris Santal AS for $5.25 and Azzaro Vetiver for $8.25. The Azzaro is going back based on comments on Basenotes though.

My acquisition for today was a slip from the postperson saying they couldn't leave my package from the Gentlemans Shop without a signature :mad: . Now I have to wait until Monday to get it. Darn it.

I HATE it when that happens. I usually have items shipped to my company where someone's always available to sign for it. :wink2:
Well - I bought some stuff this week! Shocking.... I know :wink:
I purchased 4 boxes of feather stainless PT blades
A Merkur Travel razor with leather case
1 cake of ANGELO GORI & FIGLIO SHAVE SOAP (I'll review it when it arrives)
All from a site Ron told me about "bestgroomingtools.com" - I'll let you know how the place turns out. So far - I am impressed. They have the lowest priced Feather DE blades I have seen, cheap shipping, and good selection!

Give us some feedback on the Merkur travel razor also. I've been eyeing that little gem myself.

Very nice Scotto, the Sandalwood EDT is the only one missing from my stash of C&E gear.

Scotto,
Either she loves sandalwood, or hates it. Either way, take the hint! :001_tt2:
Oh, and congratulations to you and the missus!
