April 2015 Acquisitions

Hard to believe we are into April already, this year is just flying by.

What goodies has this month brought?

Just arrived April 2: Simpson Chubby 2, Two Band Silvertip

I got a load of Stirling stuff in today, and I am waiting on an ATT S2. Then it's gonna be a long slow month, 'cause I am in restraint. I just about blew it a half hour ago, which is not good since we are only 4 days in. 26 more seems like a long time.

I ordered a few things on the 1st, but yesterday I received a tub of Tiki Bar Kon Tiki soap. Today's mail brought me a bottle of Fine Accoutrements Clean Vetiver AS, a bottle of Clubman Special Reserve AS, a Semogue 830 boar brush, a tub of Soap Commander Respect Soap, a tuck of Feather blades, and a tuck of Astra SP blades.

I received a Mergress short handle, 100 Personna Red, 2 pucks of MWF, 10 Med Preps, Fine Snake Bite AS
and I just ordered 2 tubs of Mystic Waters (1- Cup of Joe and 1 Barbershop). I may have to slow down for the rest of this month. Unless I come across a long handled progress of course.

Got these two new (to me) straights the other day:

Belbo Japanese, 13/16, half hollow ground
SR Droescher "Gold Bug", 11/16, full hollow ground

I got a Phoenix dbl oc, this soap and cream lot and razorock son of zues and xxx soap and aftershaves

Went to the Antique fair and got some goodies. Haven't been there in months.
Scored a cased slim, Case only Fatboy, A sweet Schick injector and a red tip.
A good day.

A WSP Monarch brush, various CF products, and a few Vintage razors with a couple of Modern ones. Not a bad month, according to me, not to my wife.

Still have some items pending delivery

Sampled it. Liked it. Thought it would be a nice scent for the Late Spring/Summer. Bought a bottle!

Just got my order of PAA - Clubman (Soap/AS), FrostByte (Soap), Cold Spice AS, RazoRock XXX & Sample Pack of Gillette 7oclock Black & PolSilver Blades from PAA

Wow!!!

Went a little overboard this month



And since I was in Frankfurt and the dollar was so strong...

Dollar Tree Scuttles for Camper, 2 for a Dollar. Sometimes it's the little things.
Salsa Bowls, 4 1/4" across. They have black too.

Managed to find a Plisson L'Occtiane brush in their store. They dropped the price to 30$ so I HAD to get it

A trip to Edmonton and only came home with this.

On the way home I get a text message from a lady in a thrift store on my trapline. She offered me the following for $25.00. Now I have to wait for it to arrive.

Loving that mirror.

This FITZ is quite difficult to find in Denmark - found it on a Finnish website and waited for a month ...
... ready for polishing and re-knotting.
