Thread: Shaving Scuttle

Hi,

This guy Oskar posted over at B&B about his scuttles that he makes. Very similar to the Moss scuttle but worth a look just the same.

The site is in German but he is having an English version soon, but you can still Babel it to get the translation.

His stuff is very nice, and I also believe it's available at Shavemac as well.

Better get some new barber towels then too

I purchased a couple of these mugs and they are amazing. You won't believe the size of them. I'll post a couple of pictures today if possible.

Since my German is well, non-existent - how much are these things, shipped to US?

Thanks,

K

Lynn,

Meaning they're big? They look huge from the photos. Almost like a crock pot for shaving lather.

Do you pour the water in the cup mounted to the side?

The way I read it, and it's only my interpretation, they are 54S or 59L Euros less 19% VAT plus 32 Euro shipping, but apparently he can get two to a package.

That's correct!
Hello, that oskar is me. Most of you have probably read my posting over at badgerandblade, so I will not bore you with that again. Let me just say that I have been making scuttles (and mugs) for about two years now, and they have now reached a state where I consider them, well, appropriate for the needs of wetshavers.
Since I am currently in the middle of the preparations for a fare in the middle of march, I do not have enough time to set up an english version of my webpage. But I am working on it and will let you know when it is online.
Until then, you can order via private message, as long as you have Paypal available. Also, any further questions I will gladly answer in this thread, too.
Greetings

Sorry, I am just befuddled - 54S or 59L? Sounds like an inseam?

So, 59 Euros, subtract from that 19%, and add back 32 Euros for shipping?

So $59 - $11.21 + $32 = $79.79Euros or $108.78 US dollars - is this accurate?

Thanks in advance.

DAMMIT!!!! My wife is still pissed at me for getting the Moss Scuttle last year. I like it, and use it every shave, but it is just not big enough to build the lather in the scuttle. I still have to use my stainless steel bowl to build the lather then transfer things over. I remember looking at Oskar's scuttle on the Shavemac site, before I purchased my Moss Scuttle. Figures Oskar's scuttle would be more of what I was looking for. Now I have to figure out how to get one of Oskar's scuttles with out my wife finding out. Stupid shaving addiction........
