So I stroll into one of my local thrift stores, look immediately to my right and there it is, The Greek Guard scuttle. Naturally I was quite excited to find a scuttle in a thrift store and for only $12. I then proceeded to check the rest of the place for the usual suspects (Sperry Topsiders, saftety and or straight razors, nice hats etc) but only came up to the register with the scuttle and a couple books.
When I got to the register I casually said to the lady, "Found my treasure for the day. These are getting harder to find, not many people shave like this anymore."
"There's another one back in the back by the salt shakers did you see that one?" she replied. "It's got horses on it."
Naturally she had my undivided attention and I told her to stand by while I went to get that one too. Sure enough it was right where she said it would be. So yeah, I'm pretty pleased with my results today. Two scuttles total cost about $18. Now to go test drive one
