Thread: Travel Gear

Spendur, my friend, Martin de Candre would make a great travel companion. I only wish. I have it in the wooden bowl, however, and that does not make for a great travel soap. I suppose I could cut off a chunk and put it in a small travel bowl, but that is a sacrilege. The stick works fine, although D.R. Harris does not exactly sparkle in my top soap pantheon.

I like the wetpack!! Did you make or purchase it?

Parker, the wet pack, which as I noted is a recreation of the British officer wet packs from WWI, is from Truefitt & Hill. I not only love the design, but the practicality of it. Of course, I like the history of it, too.

I have gone through a variety of travel brushes and have yet to find I like. Some time ago, I used a 22 mm Thater silvertip that fit perfect into the Simpson Case travel tube. The reason I sold the brush was because of the small size. I dare say, I have spent a fortune on a huge variety of these travel brushes. Nothing.

Interesting, I bought one of those a while ago, it works pretty well and is geeky plus in the Major-esque travel tube. Dried fast anyway. I still end up (usually, don't get out enough) with another brush in one of Muhle's screw tubes, which will handle a decent sized brush most of the time, depending of course on the going definition of "decent".

If I had a kit like that I be traveling all the time.

I know this has been a month or so ago ,, but Obie I actually stuffed some of my MDC in one of Mama bears shave stick tubes ,, works pretty good for travel .,, just saying it might be time to tie me to a post and whip me me ,, but I like my MDC with me when I travel!!! tc

Good show. It's a wise decision, because you can't go wrong with Martin de Candre in the shave den or on the road.
