Got this for $15 at a country 2nd hand shop yesterday.
Both safety bars were bent. But a good clean or 3, some time adjusting and it's back in business.

I can't believe I've gone for more than a year without any of this. Most improvident. Kindly supplied by NOAH (formerly Mensbiz). This is my benchmark for a perfectly pure, bright, natural lavender essential oil scent, and a really fine base. Quite expensive, but it lasts a long time.

My first purchase of 2026, La Faulx ("The Scythe") ++ Sablé SS arrived in just 22 days. For a workshop with products in the same price bracket as Wolfman, that's an amazing turnaround. I ordered this as head-only since I plan to use it with my Vestige handle. It makes it just a little head-heavy, but hopefully that won't be a problem. I'll find out tomorrow...

I received these as a gift from my in-laws across the pond .

They’re slowly getting closer to the front line, has anyone had an experience with these?

Mail call from @TroyTools this morning. Introducing The Real Simpson Chubby, posted on Thursday and obviously hurtled through the air to get here by now.

I made an experimental lather with it just now, and the ends of a few bristles are already beginning to split, so the breaking-in should be quick.

The handle colour does suit your sexy lavender vibe

In fact adding to my above comment @silverlifter n others, SWMBO opened one of bedside drawers to dust and the negative comments re the amount of Old Spice product in there, got me thinking “when is enough enough” thank goodness it only lasted briefly, but yes enough O/S to last me out and still looking
