Love this one Dave. There’s a wood you don’t see very often nowadays on that brush handle. I did martial arts for many years and being pretty decent with nunchuks I had a small collection of them. One was made of Coconolo and man was that thing heavy compared to any other wooden one I had. Beautiful wood though but considered rare and exotic now so extremely hard to get.

Love my Ti Diamondback and it would be my if I could only have one razor.

Thanks Frank, seems I read somewhere that Cocobolo dust can be an irritant and why some don't like to used/work with it. Have a great day !

I believe you are correct and it has been considered exotic so many are against cutting the trees down. All I know is trying to swing those heavy Cocobolo nunchucks was a bit scary cause if you accidentally hit yourself they freakin hurt. Lol

3 beauties in a row! Thanks guys for posting your SOTD.

Alll the best!

Frank

I just got notice from one of my customers that is very active on Basentes that TOAD EDP is now registered on Basenotes as a perfume. 

This is the 3rd one we’ve had as both Mysore Santal and Greenfresh are also on their. 

I’m very proud of this! 

Thank you David! 

That's cool Frank and Congratulations! I'm shocked that Dragonsbeard is not on there....

I was a carpenter back in the 80s. Pretty much all wood dust is an irritant and many are carcinogenic especially tropical hardwoods like cocobolo. Cedar is bad too. If you ever get a splinter from cedar you should dig it out right away otherwise it will fester and get infected. Imagine that stuff in your lungs. Wear breathing protection if cutting/milling with power tools. That’s your daily safety minute
