This is who we are

We believe in Traditional shaving, and want to share it with you

We celebrate the Art that engulfs the way of life that we call Traditional Shaving. We invite you to join us on this journey.

We believe in Traditional Shaving as a way of life. We work hard and play even harder. We live life to the full and want you to too. We celebrate the beauty of Art that surrounds us. We want you to enjoy it too.

We bring you the best and the most appropriate equipment. We know it well because we collect the items. We can thus bring you raw honest reviews of what works and what doesn’t, there is no way to buy our favour – you will always get the truth as we see it. Just remember that as they say “Your Mileage May Vary” – you may experience it differently, that’s just the way it is. We also bring you knowledge and advice and the experience and the ability to compare items in our collections, so don’t be shy to ask if you need anything. We are here to help. We will try to provide links to even more knowledge and information and useful resources as well as good sources of equipment and advice.

Vision

As many of you may realise, although we are passionate about presenting this Precious Art to you, it eats up both time and resources. If you are fortunate enough to be in a position that the more essential needs in life are covered, and are able to gift old razors/brushes or funds, please click
