End of Williams

 No, I am not through with Williams despite the fact that it is no longer being made. I have enough to last me the rest of my life. But, I am getting to the end of  the present puck. 


I am working on just a ring of Williams in the bottom of my shaving mug. The mug used to be the shaving mug of my wife's Grandpa. I am glad to have it in my collection and dedicated to Williams Mug Shave Soap. The lid was custom made for this mug by a gentleman on The Shave Den in January of 2022. I am sorry that I cannot recall his name.

I shave with Williams every Wednesday, so that is at least 52 times a year. I am thinking that I get about 90 shaves out of a puck, so that means it lasts almost two years.

Three New Louisville Slugger Brushes

 In 2017, Charlie from Kentucky sent me a bag of nubs from the Louisville Slugger Factory.  I made a bunch of brushes from this batch back in 2017.
