Mikael,
Looking forward to your report on the new Nanny's formulation. Sounds like a lot of fun with some shaving buddies.

PS! Another beauty I'm pretty sure you will like came in the mail today, just about to hone her up now, stay tuned for tonights SOTD

You big tease...Which custom did you get? and I can't wait to see your other addition...Knowing you, I am certain it's going to turn heads and drop jaws. BIG congrats buddy

I like We also where at a house from 1647 and had afternoon tea (very good, they have been rewarded the Tea guilds top award twice).

I love Neil's linen strops...Fantastic quality. Great job on the shave Mikael. That tea looks and sounds delicious. I love my bergamot in tea. That's my wife and I's ritual every morn for breakfast (Earl Grey + Bergamot).

Well done GI...even if Monday came roaring in way too quickly.

Congrats Rene...This is truly a marvelous looking blade (love the concave grind). If she shaves half as good as she looks, you made out like a bandit. Use her in good health bro
