Those translucent scales are SO darned clear! Amazing! I can’t even see them.
Thanks, the handles are slightly different but same knots...

Ahh, yeah the shapes are slightly different. They still look like a pair (especially with the same head). [emoji106]

PAA Sangre de Drago set and it’s all @Patelliott fault. Lucky for him that bro code won’t let me throw him under the bus with the missus.

You will not be disappointed with that purchase! Just tell her that at least you don't have over 300 soaps. That excuse worked for me once.

So I was at the Hospital with the wife for one of her follow up appointment's and couldn't extract pics from the listing on my phone. So here are some pics. Not perfect shape but no bent teeth etc and I can always get it a nickel replate later. Case is solid with good hinges and latch as well. And the price was right too for one of these. @NurseDave doesn't call me "Red" for no reason
Guess I didn't have to wait as long as you thought @dangerousdon

I have been wanting to try a gel tipped badger for a while now and I really like the handle on this brush. Since it is coming from Canada, I don't know when it will arrive but I am excited!

Thanks Don, already talked to Chris of Back Roads Gold but waiting to see how it looks in person first before doing anything. He's away till mid June visiting a new Grandchild anyway.

Oudy goodness. Did you get the CK6 or CK1?

There was a $2 difference, so I went with the CK6.

The CK1 is fine, but he CK6 is tremendous.

Ugh. Part of me really hates unobtainium.
Earlier in the year I purchased a slightly used bottle of Penhaligon's English Fern from @Spider. He gave me a smoking deal on it, and I have come to really love the scent. Not long after receiving the bottle and trying it out I learned that it is discontinued. I have used it several more times since then and each time I like it more.
So, what did I do today with my 35% off coupon to Fragrance.Net that was about to expire? Oh, I think you know what I did since they were down to their last 2 in stock. I partially blame @BarberDave for his masterful enabling and salesmanship.
It is going to take me years to get through the first bottle of EF. But, at least now I will have a backup bottle (with a healthy helping of buyer's remorse). I probably wouldn't have bought the bottle if it weren't discontinued.
