Acquisitions - June 2024

Where did you buy the 34C out of interest.
 
I’ve been after - friends to the end - for a while. Are you in America by any chance.

I’ve had a look now and can’t find it at any vendors . J.

No I'm in Scotland. It was actually just an eBay find of a seller with all of the Stirling soaps in the picture which were partially used

I'm assuming a member from here as the eBay name matches with a member here

Nice - good find mate - it’s a dupe of MFK 540. And I know stirling do great scents.

Enjoy. J.

 
Looking forward to your S.O.T.D post and thoughts about it.
It’s dead annoying mark because I asked gile to make me an autumn brush - and I thought it would be a while before he could and he showed me this - which he had in stock - and of course I said yes.

Autumn / fall being my favourite time of the year . Great opportunity for photography and in my opinion the best time of the year for scents - also I get to wear my Belstaff jackets lol.

So I wasn’t going to use it just yet but maybe I’ll do a spooky shave of the day this week considering the weather has been so abysmal LOL. J.

 
I'm interested in your thoughts on this.
First shave with the Spirit is done. After reading some of the descriptions, I thought this razor may be too assertive for me. As a reference point - I found the Vector too assertive but enjoyed the Claymore Evo.

The Spirit feels surgical in use. So light and nimble. The shave was very comfortable. Not what i was expecting. This is the first shave - I'll report back here after my future shaves. I'll also use a non (glacial) mentholated soap for the next shave. I'm not sure if the couple of patches on my jaw line are due to me finding my feet with the razor or the fact I could barely see through my streaming eyes because the Stirling Glacial was so strong!!
