I was rocking the same kit this week until I received a scuttle from Ken. I had been thinking of adding a modern scuttle to the mix and Eric mentioned the PAA scuttle. It looked good and had an unbeatable price. I almost pulled the trigger on that one.
That was until I got a PM from Ken offering the GP scuttle. It came in this week and was put into action. Although not in the pic today, I used the new scuttle yesterday and today. Man I’m digging the scuttle too. Life is good!

Another very nice shave today. But the razor does need to go back to the stones. Also had the scuttle on deck for a nice warm lather too. Three smooth passes and I am BBS for the win! Mostly a chill day with steaks on the grill here in a bit. Easter egg hunt with the grandkids after church tomorrow. Life is good!
