Nice shave and review. That label looks amazing, your picture the other day really showed it off and this video shows a little what you're talking about. That is a great looking brush. Have a great weekend
Thanks Mike! I was hoping to capture it, the metallic labels from HC&C and the holos from PAA can be a bear to capture on film. Hope you have a good one as well!
Hey Tobin great shave review. I've been keeping my eye on this one. Your outdoor shaves are always awesome. Thank you for sharing all the local beauty that you're able to enjoy. Take care
Gondolier is a great scent from PAA I have a set from a while back when he used the good bottles that you didn't have to strangle to get a couple drops out of. I don't use it often because I don't want it to run out but it is fantastic when I do break it out! Maybe I'll have to pick this one up from Pete so I can use it as a replacement.
I haven't smelled either of the scents you mentioned, but they sound hood enough to make sure I try yo sneak a spray the next time I sm at the shopping centre.
Very nice Tobin! Enjoyed the video! Pete and I are excited for this release! It has been a fun project to work on. You are right, I have been very busy lol That being said, we will have to find a few minutes to chat sometime this weekend hopefully. All the best to you Tobin! Great content!
Thanks Rich! Coming from you that's a great compliment! Life is crazy busy and I know brush making is time consuming no rush brother! Have a great weekend!
Well, it sounds like another winner of a collab soap and that's awesome for Pete and Rich! I'm still never sure on scents, because I have an odd taste in scents and even if a ton of people like it, doesn't seam to mean I will. I still haven't run into one that has topped Seaforth Spiced for me and maybe I like that one so much because it just hits a lot of things I like. This one does sound like a good one and I'm sure I try it sometime. Wow, that is a really cool brush and I think I'd like a knot like that. That razor must have come out when I grew my ZZ Top beard, because I don't remember it at all. It might even be too aggressive for me and I like using shavettes. Take care!
I need to get my shit together and send you a GIANT sample box. That razor is definitely one of the most aggressive razors I've ever used. I was afraid of the poor lighting and uneven footing making it harder than it was. Have a good weekend Ian!
The blood oath is sweet. I have the S2 Innovator but wish I spent the extra and got the Ultra Lux. Nevertheless it is still outstanding. HC&C makes high quality offerings. Nice artwork and labels as well. Good to see the beard slayer.
I just got my hands on a Innovater, haven't used it yet. It's in a beautiful handle. Rich does amazing work! I want to find a Beard Slayer for my collection. Have a good weekend Steve!
Legend Intense and Legend Spirit are two of my favorites from the Legend line, not taking anything from the original. I'm sure the apple comes through nicely and I'd certainly try this! Love the view, too!
I've tried a sample of Intense but not Spirit, I want to though. And thank brother, this is one of my favorite spots to spend the day. Have a good one!
@@Tobins_throwbacks-- Personal preference, I love Invictus more. But honestly, that is a tough call because I'd also say that it is fine to have both. It is the drydowns that separate both of them. Spirit has this suede-ish, cashmere wood drydown that totally separates itself from Invictus in the base. Up top, both of them are similar in profile, but I'd say Invictus is more my speed for a summer scent whereas Legend Spirit can probably be considered like a hybrid Summer / Fall scent because of the base. It is really based on how you'd like the drydowns of both of them. A better comparison would be Legend Spirit vs Lacoste L.12.12 White which also has suede in the base. I'd recommend sampling Spirit when you get a chance to see how it works for you.
I just got Rise on Tuesday, along with 5 other HC&C soap/splash sets (including Year of the Dragon and HC & C Mjölnir. And after I ordered them, I bought a bottle of the MontBlanc Legend EDP. I haven't opened the EDP yet. The soap's scent is subtle off the puck. Hopefully it will wake when agitated... and hope that the EDP is awake from the spritz.
Where can you buy these brushes? I’ve looked for them online before but can’t find them. His Etsy only has two products and their just knots no handles or anything.
In the description is a link to his Instagram and Facebook group. I'd recommend starting with sending him a message on Instagram. The knot exceeded all my expectations and this loaner brush makes me wish I had bought one sooner. Hope this helps, have a good one!
@@Tobins_throwbacks Yeah I actually sent him a message on instagram about a week ago maybe a little longer and I never got a response. I have been wanting to get one of his brushes for a while but it appears that there is no way for me to get into contact with him.
Oh man, that's the same boat that I'm in. I sent him a message last week on IG asking about a brush and haven't heard back. I think he must be super busy with work etc. If/when he contacts me I'll mention our conversation. I know over the past year or so he has slowed down with brushes.
@@Tobins_throwbacks Ok thanks I appreciate it! I was starting to think he he had just up and quit but that doesn’t make sense because he keeps doing these colabs with hc&c
i am a fan of Rich and his Shaving brushes, i have 2, both with the UltraLux knot. 😊
Man, I wish! I have an innovator knot on the way and worked out a trade with Chris for this brush. Rich's work is 🔥🔥🔥
Have a great weekend!

@@Tobins_throwbacks well I never! Ehat a turn up for the books that is!
Gondolier is a great scent from PAA I have a set from a while back when he used the good bottles that you didn't have to strangle to get a couple drops out of.

Agreed! Gondo is amazing! And this would be a perfect backup. I've thought about taking a small drill bit to the PAA bottles lol.
Have a good one!
The reflection in that wonderfully calm water is so beautiful and soothing to see.
Thanks brother! I had to watch this on the TV! I agree!
The soap sounds great. Wonderful scenery. Some day We have to get up to the Norhtwest. Have a great weekend. 👍
It truly is William! If you ever do make it out this way hit me up for lunch or a quick coffee run or something!
I haven't smelled either of the scents you mentioned, but they sound hood enough to make sure I try yo sneak a spray the next time I sm at the shopping centre.
Definitely do it! All of them are 🔥
Your content is unique and unbelievable!

That sounds a lovely scent, I love Legend. Awesome backdrop with the mountains reflecting in the lake.👌😎🤟

@@Tobins_throwbacks -- Spirit is like Montblanc's version of Invictus, but is a bit different. Still great for like a summertime vibe. 😊
@@Kenoji8 do you prefer it over Invictus?

@@Kenoji8 Roger Wilco! Thank you!!
Pete continues to distinguish himself as a top tier artisan. I love the original scent, so this should be a good one. That location is beautiful.
Totally agree! He does! Have a good weekend Patrick!
Beautiful brush!
Great review sir!
Thank you! Already looking forward to the return of sunshine lol it's raining cats and dogs today lol.
@@Tobins_throwbacks Yeah we have had a lot of rain the past few days here in central Texas as well. Looks like rain again tonight.
Great review. Hendrix are definitely coming out with some nice stuff. Never had fierce. But I do have gondolier from PAA and it’s a great scent.
Yeah, they are! Pete's building a killer library of fragrances 👍👍 Have a good one Manny!

The lake looks calmer than the Rabbit Fighter review. No wind? Less?
Awesome Natur Video, but who's the guy in the front 😅😅😅. Great shave review Tobin
😊😅 thanks Robert!
Luna is too cute🐻
