Announcement More and more men are discovering the joys of traditional shaving using a high quality shaving brush and shaving soap instead of commercially available canned goo. These men are realizing that shaving can be an enjoyable ritual instead of a dreaded activity. In this store I plan on offering items for enjoyment of wet shaving. I restore old shaving brushes with new knots and give them face lifts to create beautiful tough high quality brushes with a vintage look. I also make brushes from new materials and restore old double-edge razors. I am also available to do custom built items.

5 out of 5 starsMy initial order from VF was a brush from his line in the store. I liked it so much that I placed & ordered my own custom set, this Creamsicle matching brush & razor. VF is great to work with & I'm looking forward to placing another custom order in the near future; I have my eyes set on something else already.

5 out of 5 starsI LOVE this thing :-)... Colors match a solid green custom razor that I had made. As others have stated regarding Vladimir's other creations, the pictures don't do it any justice. I was skeptical about the synthetic hairs that I chose for this brush, but it was a nice feel, albeit a little softer than I like vs the pure badger brush that I previously bought.
The brush still felt good, lathered well, weight and size fit my hands perfectly. I was IMPRESSED to the point that Vladimir and I are working on a personal custom item(s) for me. His knowledge, expertise and patience with his customers is TOPNOTCH. Thanks "V", looking forward to our upcoming project.

5 out of 5 starsThis is a truly unique and amazing brush handle. Vladimir was excellent on communication as well. The layering of the colors looks even better in real life. I really dig the wood burnt company symbol on the bottom. A nice change from coin handles.
About
Turning a dreaded chore into luxurious self care
Ever since I started shaving over 30 years ago I have dreaded the ritual. It always felt like a chore. Cartridge razors were all the rage back then and that's what I used. I tried electric and that was even worse. For 30 years I dreaded shaving and grew beards as often as I could to avoid the whole process.
Then I discovered classic wet shaving using a brush and good shaving soap instead of canned goo offered by the mass market. Once I tried wet shaving using a good quality shaving brush, good shaving soap and an old school double edge safety razor (originally designed by Gillette in 1904) there was no going back to the old way of shaving for me.
So drastic was the change that I began to draw my friends and family into it. I began to experiment with vintage brush and razor restoration and got excellent results. I have been doing that ever since, constantly improving my techniques and knowledge.
Finally I decided to open an Etsy store to share my passion for classical wet shaving and to bring it to more people. I have tried many different brushes and always thought I could improve on some aspect of them. It usually was the materials, ergonomics, cost or combination of those and other factors that didn't sit right with me. I thought I could improve on one or more of these aspects. I also enjoyed restoring old brushes and razors. Recuperating some landfill space always seemed like a good idea. This is how this store was born.
I hope you enjoy browsing and shopping here. I will try to keep it well stocked with top notch shaving goodies.
