Finally after about a year I have set the knots in two Trotter Handcrafts handles I bought from Paul Stubble Daddy last year. It took me a while because I was rehabbing a hip replacement but mostly because I wasn’t sure which knot I wanted in which handle. Both beautiful knots Manchurian badger and premium boar. I decided to do with this combination using one spacer for the Manchurian knot and two for the boar. They looked right to me that way. I’ll be trying the boar / oscuro tomorrow. I’m really happy with them. Thanks Paul  Happy2

Looks good my friend!

Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

It's like the blues, the best stuff comes from dead guys.

The Trotter Handcrafts handles are really gorgeous. I got both knots from Paul as well and they are both beautiful as well. I’m using the boar oscuro tomorrow but I’m going to have to give the Manchurian a run despite it being DecemBoar.  Big Grin

Yeah, I went back and forth on which knot in which handle. I’d stick the knots in and leave them on the shelf and look at them then switch them and repeat. I finally got off the pot so now it’s go time. 

How are things going with you? Is business going well?  I have to admit, I miss your regular handle drops.

Hey Mark, yes, been really busy building brushes this year. Brushes drop and are available every week.

I don’t use Etsy any longer. My new website is: www.TrotterHandcrafts.com

And they’re sold at www.TheShaveSupply.com too.

Instagram (TrotterHandcrafts) is a good place to follow what I’m up to with builds and drop info.

Thanks,
Paul

Wow, you've got your own website?! Shesh. That's awesome Paul!

When I get some free time, I'm going to have to browse the colors photo section. It's a dangerous thing for me to do, but I'm quite curious what mixes you are making these days.

Congratulations on the success. So glad it is working out so well. In case we don't talk before the holidays, Merry Christmas to you and yours.

I will have to put a lock on my credit cards before I go look! I saw the latest Oscuro on Instagram and felt the siren song begin!
