    Default Christmas 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.

    There 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.

    @Mike
    That set of magnifiers look pretty sweet. As does the rest of the haul. I am going to have to google those glasses. They are so needed which doing fine work. I bet you use yours for all kinds of different projects.

    That 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..!
