What are you anxiously waiting to be delivered ???

Ok, so maybe I do have a weeee bit of a problem. And this was quite an internal struggle. The moment I saw this pen I thought it wasn’t the prettiest, but from a craftsmanship and engineering aspect I was drooling over it. Well, I had curtailed my pen buying over the holidays and since. Now with everything going on, I knew there were 1 or 2 cheaper pens I would buy if they became available, but I won’t be buying anything on the higher end for a few years. But then...yes I don’t know why I torture myself with looking, I see this pen on the slightly used section of the exclusive vendor’s website. Arrrrgg! Now I really shouldn’t even be looking. But this week we just cancelled all our wine clubs and a big family trip for 2021. My wife said I should go ahead and with another 12 hours of internal debate it was still on the site and I grabbed it. I’d gladly trade buying a couple of bottles of wine to have it.

Check this out. Spun carbon fiber, titanium and linen.

@mrdoug I used the AP Shave Co. SynBad brush today and I really enjoyed it. It is the 24mm knot and my initial thought was that it was too small, but it performed wonderfully. It has a firm backbone, but splays wonderfully. It also distributes the lather very evenly! It holds lather and heat really well also. It is tall enough to bowl lather in my PAA scuttle so that is another plus. All in all I am very satisfied with it and I will probably purchase another brush from them in the future. The one I am eyeing next is a badger gel knot.

Hey guys, the SynBad is my GoTo brush, having both the 30mm Wall of Cloud and the 26mm versions. Since acquiring them, my brush buying days just about ended, until @Smattayu posts cool stuff, or there is a Cadre brush, or.... ;)

Wow thanks for the detailed review. Sounds like a winner... Now i'm definitely looking forward to mine arriving.

I might have to try a Synbad knot in my next brush from them.
 
Scored a complete sample pack of Stubble Buster from a BST listing.

It was advised that I try them, and I do try to take advise when I can. [emoji106]

I've got a bottle of Azzaro Pour Homme Intense that should be here tomorrow. It's a blind buy and I'm looking forward to the first spray.

I used to have some of the Intense in the vintage EdT and AS versions. Azzaro Pour Homme came out in 1978 and is considered by many to be the best men's cologne ever. A mere whiff by pre-pubescent boys has been known to catapult them into manhood!! ;)

Thursday Zingari Man - The Soloist soap arrives and I just got a shipping label created from Flint Michigan which could mean some Stirke Gold soaps are heading this way. Not showing when yet.........

I think that happened to me, but I never knew the name of the cologne until now.

I wonder if it would help with ED? Does Pfeizer have any association with them?
