Probably the last Forgotten Art you will see. Cherry Blossom, 26mm Synth Blue Devil also sent along some free blades.

Fantastic looking Brush and great soap to accompany it..(y)

The Sakura colour is brilliant. Shimmers with light and dark redish magenta. Cherry Blossum great name. Irish always had a cool name for every brush he made.

I almost pulled the trigger on the brushes but wasn't quick enough as they'd both got snapped up super quick!
Great addition and looking forward to trying some of the soap myself as its been getting rave reviews... Happy Shaves! :)

Shut up about the soap, okay (y)

RazoRock SS Lupo 95 with a bulldog handle and the Muhle SS R41GS.

Holy bloody mother of Muhle the handle is not the same as the original R89 chrome light weight, because, the width of the handle is wider and seriously looks and feels SS with a bloody good heft including the SS R41 head. The overall feel, weight and balance is ABSOLUTELY BLOODY BRILLIANT!, so I don’t need to change the handle over the bulldog or the Rockwell 6C. Everything feels absolutely bloody MAGNIFICENT!

can’t wait to hear your thoughts on both razors mate.. these are both on my radar
 
These 3 brushes and knots arrived thanks to a very generous member on another forum (JWCowboy) who not only gave them to me but covered the shipping as well. There are some lovely people out there.

Good razor, terrible shipping. I was not the only one with a ridiculous express shipping issues. I sent Homelike shaving a big complaint about the shipping process and how companies like Smart Helix had their act together on the shipping side of things.
And I'm now in that same boat I fear, 9 days sitting in Dubai with Emirates post. Extended tracking says "uplifted" 6 times but nothing else. I've contacted Emirates post and they have not asked me for delivery address etc and hopefully, it moves. As it stands, Auspost looks like a dream in comparison to Russian/Emirates Post! Homelike will be receiving a boot up the arse soon if it doesn't arrive in the next month when you pay for express.
