*Monsavon shaving soap
*Palmolive shaving stick
*Maca Root shaving cream

Picked this up, finally. Looking forward to trying it tomorrow.

onethinline, after your discussion about the AdP in another thread, I shall look forward to your thoughts on it.

Received my first Tabac shaving soap last week.
Used it this morning and it's a 'good' soap with a 'good' scent but nothing, so far, stands out as exceptional when comparing it to soaps like Klar Kabinett and i Coloniali. We'll see - maybe I need to use it a few more times

Received my first vintage, full-sized butterscotch brush. It actually looked better in person. No cracks or anything in the handle and the knot is very dense and soft. I think this one can be ready to be used after just a good cleaning.

Now I'm just a bit curious about who made it but I'm guessing it's a Vulfix brush. We'll see.

That's a good looking brush, darkbulb. I like its classic look.

Finally received the E-type injector I bought from a large auction site. This is my first injector. Very curious to see what shaving with it is like.

onethinline, the E was my first Injector and I much preferred it to my I-2, which I found so mild that it barely cut hair.  I recently purchased a Schick Injector Adjustable from our B/S/T here at DFS and it has easily moved into my favorite of the three.  I have been shaving with it since Friday and thoroughly enjoying the experience.  I'm looking forward to your thoughts on the razor.
