Hi Stefan, I've tried several different beard oils on my quasi-regular winter beard and I wanted to tell you that The Holy Black Snake Oil is the best of the lot. I really like it and don't even bother with any of the other brands. I have it in the Bay Whisky Lime scent which I also like a lot. I notice that gunpowder spice is the only scent currently available on your site - is that a permanent situation? I have soap/balm/splash in gunpowder spice as well as bay whisky lime and sandalwood smoke. I actually like all of the scents you carried, I got a sampler so I was able to try them all.
Thanks,
Mark

Hey Mark, Im going to be offering the scents seasonally at first and then bringing them back into the fold, we alos have some limited edition stuff coming out. It's just been so busy and we are moving into a new facility in the next month or so, so things have been put on hold until after the holidays etc.. The key to the Snake oil is a silicone based oil in very small amounts that they use for women's anti frizz. It also helps the carrier oils to spread easily which is why it's such a great preshave oil too.

Stefan, that sounds good - its good to be busy. I will try the snake oil as a pre-shave oil tomorrow. Its good to know that your other awesome scents aren't gone forever. I have enough to last me a bit but I know that some of the newcomers will be sure to enjoy them as well - the gunpowder spice is also great but I do like to mix things up. I'm interested to see what you're going to be doing limited edition-wise.Smile
Thanks,
Mark

Recently got after shave balm and ink balm from Stefan. The scent of the after shave balm is amazing, my wife loves it! I want to get more Holy Black products with the gun powder spice scent. The ink balm is very nice, recently got my first tattoo and using it to help it heal. The ink balm makes the skin nice and soft, relieve some of the itchiness and adds a little more contrast to the ink. The retro packaging that you have adds some nostalgia to my bathroom.
Now waiting to see mustache wax added to the product line in gunpowder spice!

Hi Stefan, I hope you had a great Christmas and New Year and maybe even had a little time to yourself. I was looking around your website and found your journal on making Knuckle Dusters which is very cool. I'd love to have a set but knuckle dusters but they unfortunately are on the list of things the Canadian government doesn't think we should have so it would be problematic shipping such contraband to the land of ice and snow. We will have to do our best with lead pipe and other blunt objects Smile I really enjoy your picture journals of the projects you are working on - I'm pasting the link to the Knuckle Duster page here for other DFS members to check out. Do you think you will ever make more of your Moby Dick whale tooth/harpoon point brush sets again? I'm kicking myself for not picking one up when I could have.
Cheers,
Mark

Hi Derek, your custom black brush is on the bench, just waitying for the knot to come in(I had to custom order it). Glad you're digging everything. I will include a moustache wax when it ships!

Hey Mark, the knuckle duster was a project for my brothers birthday, so we probably wont be stocking them soon unless I send some wax copies to my foundry. I have two Ahab brushes that I just made, I can give you first dibs on one. One of them is cold cast in bronze, and the other is natural with a cold cast bronze collar. I will post pictures when I am back in my shop. We are currently moving into a new facility so things are a bit hectic, but all is going smoothly.

Holy Black is "hands down" my favorite products! Waiting patiently for the custom brush which will go well with all my black gear. I shouldn't have read this thread now knowing that a "Old Thunder" brush was being made, would love to have one just......because! Why does the Canadian dollar have to suck so much right now!

Stefan, that would be great, I'm looking forward to seeing the pics. With the FX rate on the $ I'm going to have to break open the piggy bank but its worth it.
