Thanked: 4206Christmas spoils, 2017
Hope Santa found you all.
My clan treated me well this year, as always.
Nice Proraso shave kit with a balm to try. Lee Valley Tools gift card, neat little key and wallet tracker called Tile. Passive chip technology that works with gps and phone app. No more lost keys or wallet!
And a cool couple ready made Swedish Steel knife blanks to try to make handles for.
An upgraded jewelers glasses set to help me see what I’m do8ng as well!
Cheers men
Merry Christmas to you all.

I got a very nice Brian Brown razor that shaves like dream and some of my favorite Ogallala products. Merry Christmas!

Thanked: 4827There is a lull at our house, so I have had a chance to shoot a couple of quick pics. This year my wife and children really nailed it and got me an Ed Brice razor with a really nice worked spine and my birth stone mounted in it.

Thanked: 4206That blade is super sexy Shaun! Nice present sir, enjoy it thoroughly. Looks like it will be a hoot to get used too.
Regarding the visor, I have the older style type jewelers glasses that fit like a welding mask all ready. This new set is 100X more comfortable. No ‘ring around the forehead’ as the weight is entirely on the nose piece and arms. Plus the arms can be removed and a headband swapped in for increased wearing options.
Never knew they made them, my boy knows me well though so they are going to be appreciated.

Betting it came from here as my lad is a prime member.
Also, seems our man Scott is in the apothecary business maybe, hehe.
My daughter grabbed me some bay rum body wash that smells great!

I got three, $100 gift cards ( so I can buy what I want ) and a puck of shave soap from Ireland. Tried the soap yesterday, liked it so well, I'm going for another round of it today..!

Some nice loot there! I got a new 2-band (2m and 70cm) radio and a 1945 Vibroplex Deluxe semiautomatic Morse key with near perfect chrome:
