Use it for lighting pipes and glass candles!
I bought this for my briar tobacco pipes. I was going through 3 bick lighters a week until i started using the hemp wick. Ive had it for a couple months and am still on the same bick! Save money and the low temp flame doesn't char the edges of my pipe like a lighter. My GF uses the wick to light her Jar candles like Yankee. I used it to light the gas BBQ. Great stuff!

The most rich, high quality wax money can buy! Safe for antiques and priceless furniture!
5 of 5 found this helpful Purchased for polishing briar pipes but it works so well on my antique furniture as well !! I have colonial desks and chairs, tables from the early days of America that i haven't used wax on for fear of damage. Tried Craftsman on a low value early clock and the wood ate it right up with no damage, just a perfect shine and amazing smell. Next tried out on a 1700's desk. The wood again ate the wax right up, real food for old wood. The desk darkened a bit and now has this luster that it hasn't had in 200 years. It actually looks happy to be in it's former glory! I used the wax on my most prized briar pipes, antique Zenith and Crosley tube radio's, 1800's railroad clocks and Phonograph's... Every wood object without a shellac will love this wax!
It's a small tin but it goes a long way. I have done all the furniture and knick knacks in my home and only used 1/4 of a tin so perhaps buy two since your paying for shipping anyways. Wood Workers buy 4 or more, your going to want to use it on everything!
Pictures of the pipes i waxed and the Zenith radio. You can see why i was hesitant to use wax, pipes and radio are very high end and fragile... No issues though!!

Old time CK1 style Cologne
Purchased for my 73 yr old father that has been wearing this and only this since 1962. Has a very floral aroma similar to CK1 but different enough to have both. Price is insanely cheap, very classy in its white milk glass bottle, therefore it makes a great gift.. still smells the same after 50 years!
