I just visited his website. Wow is that a beauty or what?
Good prices too!!
PICS! PICS PLEASE!!
That's a beautiful piece of work.
I just learned yesterday that my #2 in lava slate is done and will be shipped soon - can't wait!
Wow!
I'm going to check his website right now.

Very nice!
Very nice, that would certainly add something special to a man morning routine!!
I'll be it stay's nice and warm through out the entire shave!!!
Great purchase!
It would keep my lather warm for three passes or more. It is heavy and really well made. I have debated on getting one for a long time and Mr. Beckers are less expensive than some others so I finally pulled the trigger and I am so glad I did. He is a really nice guy to deal with too. Sent me several emails and answered mine quickly. Wish I'd had this scuttle last winter.
Now you have done it. A scuttle is a luxury that I don't have and this one seems reasonable and the right size. I guess I will be looking into getting one. Thanks for posting it.

Whoa, these are gorgeous!
IMHO it is really a steal and I am on a fixed income. Microwaveable too so you can heat the water as hot as you want.
Don't heat the water too hot as it breaks down the lather.
I just placed my order.
I had emailed him yesterday for details regarding shipping costs. He advised me that he will only be taking orders until this coming Wednesday for delivery before Aug 4
He's planning on taking most of August off.:D
Funny, did the same thing today too for an 005. Guess I was lucky to decide to do that now and not later.

Thanks for the tip! i've been about to pull the trigger on other competitors scuttles which look almost identical, but cost 3-4 times more.
Just ordered one, hopefully he can fit me in.
I received an email from Robert a couple of days ago. He advised me that he has stopped taking orders as of July 18 and will likely get all orders received up to that day processed and shipped out by the first week of August
He will be on vacation for the remainder of August
Yes you are correct, he replied to me saying he could not guarantee delivery until September. There was a chance, but not 100% certain.
I ordered all the same. Saving 40+ dollars for waiting a month extra is no problem to me. I make pretty decent lather as is already (I think) so I'm not in a hurry.
Very nice! I like that it has a lid.
I got one some time back and have been completely pleased with it. You can't beat the price for such a hand made quality product and he is good guy if you have any questions. They are as nice as any of the others and less expensive too.
Mine just arrived today. It looks great and I can't wait to try it out!
:)
Very nice scuttle. :)
I love the idea of the lid - I've never seen a scuttle with one before.
Just got my scuttle from Robert, and I'm really happy with it.
Build quality seems great and it looks beautiful.
Highly recommend him!
I tried a search for him and his scuttles, no go, were would I find mr.B on what site??
Sounds like a very good product.

Thanks for the link!! Worked great for me!
I love his stuff, hope he doesn't raise his prices before I get a chance to order one.
Go forth all and shave and be great!

Just got my scuttle from Robert Becker this afternoon. It took 14 days via air mail parcel to go from Texas to Ontario in Canada which is pretty normal. Oddly enough stuff from across the pond gets here about as fast. Gave it a quick test to see how it lathered and was very pleased how quickly it kicked up an uber lather and kept it warm. Tomorrow mornings shave will be the real test but so far I have been very impressed. Now, I would not put a scuttle up in the category of must haves for a newbie shaver but if you can see your way clear to purchasing one it is one enjoyable luxury to have. Thank you Robert Becker.

Mine arrived a few days ago.
While I agree that it is a luxury, it will sure be nice to use during the cold winter months
