The Varlet- T27 XD Megalith - Oahu

Declaration Grooming - ‘Star Spangled Blue’ - B16 Jefferson 

New here so having issues posting a picture. But landed and unboxed Pisgah from Murphy and McNeil got one each of the soap, a/s and  a/s balm.  Fantastic smell, masculine, yet inviting. Such a delight. And the ol lady approves!

Pisgah scent is great right?! I did an impulse buy when that dropped.  Not only is M&McN a premium product but he’s a solid Gent too! Their balms are some of the best I’ve used and I’ve been “balming” since Chatty Lux did the collab balm in the glass mason jam jar with Declaration.

Another brilliant balm is an unscented by Paladin! ChiefBroom did a simple yet quality sauce and the soaps are fantastic as well! https://www.paladinshaving.com/products/...1816054150

Nice, I am waiting on one of these as well.  Hopefully this means mine should be finished up soon.

Received my first straight razor today.

Now I am curious, being of Scandinavian stock. Two baseplates? Very nice!
