Haha. Maybe so Eric!

I guess I haven’t really decided on a “new” logo just yet. Maybe I’ll post some ideas tomorrow and you guys can help pick it.

I like the one currently in my Avatar, but my Wife is not a fan at all and told me “you can do better”.

Razor: Wolfman WR1 (.80 gap)
Brush: Prometheus w/ 28mm SHD knot
Soap: 345 - Fresh Cut Fade
Aftershave: 345 - Fresh Cut Fade
Blade: Perma-Sharp

This mornings shave was a great one. One of those shaves that really makes ya love and appreciate this unique hobby we all share. Also confirmed for me that I prefer the WR1 over the WR2… at least in the performance dept. I still think the WR2 is the coolest looking razor Wink

The 345 stuff is a solid performer all around. Strong scent for sure. Wonderful post-shave feel.

Pretty neat brush too. The knot is super soft and has a monster splay.

Off to work meetings now… later dudes.

Same here, but yesterday, I think. The days are blurring together, as it is my work weekend, yippee.

Thanks for the order Dave! I was kinda surprised "Ida" didn't sell right away. The pour is really wild on that one! I almost kept it for myself. Smile

Hey Eric, I dropped your handles off at the Post Office on my way to work today.


Enjoy guys! Really appreciate the orders and continued support!

It was the only other that spoke to me. Been watching that Quartz Vein for awhile and fighting the urge. The sale and 2 knots getting delivered today that pushed me over the edge. Thanks

The REAL question is, Why is he clearing the store? What's he got up his sleeve ? Tongue

Glad you asked Dave! Prepare for a long answer my friend!

1. I'm mostly just clearing out what has been sitting in the shop and hasn't sold quickly. The buy 1 get 1 sale worked pretty well! 

2. I'm trying to build up my Etsy "shop sales" and positive reviews by moving product (even if that means I'm not making much profit)

3. I'm going to switch-up the Shop to have a bit more "focused" product line-up 

I probably won't take on many (if any) custom orders as I just want to focus on the more simple/organized model above for a while and see how that goes.

The long awaited Trotter Handcrafts "Coin" is coming in 2022! Maybe earlier if my supplier can pull it off. The order has been placed (fyi - custom, high-quality coins are not cheap). I'm really excited about this. The coins will be matte brass and have a horse logo on the bottom! I'll try to get pics for ya soon.

Thanks guys! I know I've said it many times, but I truly appreciate your support and friendship.

All the best,
-Paul
