Hmmm, so the paper towel touches the tobacco or just absorbs the humidity from being over it?

Not a stupid question at all. The blade shape is kind of just like a Kamisori. If you ask Kamisori "purists" they will tell you you must shave with only one side (which just by the shape of the...

Great story, thanks for sharing!

I have a wide variety of clubman A/S's and use their Talc powder daily for over 20 years! I love their products! High quality for a good value! Reminiscent of a better yesteryear!!!

I had it done about 10 years ago. It was great for about 8-1/2 years and then (as I was forewarned by the doctors) my eyes started to age. Unfortunatly I am back to glasses, but it was great while...

Just for the name of it I'll go with the V-173 Flying Flapjack

KMF Patchouli right out of the pump and into my lathering bowl, with a few swirls of my brush BAMMMM.....good lather and plenty of it! Maybe better than good, but not great and there's nothing wrong...
