1993: King of Shaves. 2008: King of Blades.

wkohamat.jpgI'm was at my parents this weekend with my son and Dad often has a little gift or something for Cameron or me that's caught his eye.

This time, he gave me a model of a Piper Tomahawk (which he has been flying for the past year and a half, out of Beccles Airfield near Lowestoft - he's 76, and learned to fly a couple of years ago). It's in the 'King of Shaves' colours - King Air perhaps!!!

For those in the know, especially the guys at NetNewsAsia, I have had a website WKoHamat 08 up for most of the year, which they correctly deduced was an anagram for Tomahawk, the project codename for our launch.

So, as reported by the Mail on Sunday here a few weeks ago, the King of Blades is coming! Sign up to know more here. And for even more 'early bird detail, become a King of Shaves fan on Facebook here.

PS - the card behind it was produced in 1993, for the Whitbread Round The World Race, where King of Shaves oil was taken by Matt Humphries, skipper of the Whitbread 60 'Reebok/Dolphin & Youth' round the world. And the message then is the same as it is now - King of Shaves is "Essential Shaving Around The World". But there's another story there, another time...!
