The deal with @Tony Forsyth was to never use this blank for this handle shape again ever...I guess the memo slipped through the hand over :D:D:D

What a beautiful looking brush - congratulations @Mark1966
Doesn’t have the lovely badger knot in it though 😉 so it will never be a Platypus👍
Cheers guys and I hope you are all keeping well.

Hey mate, consider it a homage to greatness! There will NEVER be another Platypus.

He hath spoken, so that settles that. :p The Platypig is its own species...

I think that this is a done deal now :)

Going cheap at Priceline at the moment. $15 each. The big bottle is better value, if they have it of course. Mine didn't.

Not sure why I can't attach pics, maybe a new member thing?

Anyway, my Hoshi Tombo turned up on Friday. I haven't used it yet, but will probably give it a go tonight.

You need to use an image hosting site such as Postimages (or the many others) and chose the Picture icon from the tabs where it asks you to insert the link.
For ease of viewing its recommended you try to keep the file at 640x480 otherwise picture will be too large making things inconvenient when viewing on a portable device. (y)

I got it sorted. I've been using Amazon photos and it doesn't allow you to create a direct link to the picture. I think I might change to imgur.

Barrister and Mann with the usual freebies from Vshod. Shaving bowl, alum matches and tucks of Voskhod. Looking forward to this cold blast. My first B&M soap purchase.

I've ordered the accompanying Terror Aftershave and Balm from the Italian Barber in Toronto Canada. They don't mind shipping aftershave internationally. I'm just hoping it gets through.
