    SEptember 13 SOTD:

    Razorock Plissoft Brush
    Stirling Frozen Tundra
    Gem Featherweight
    Stirling Unscented PSB
    Fine L'Orange Noir

    I had a nice shave this morning with the Featherweight and some Stirling. Two passes for a DFS. I finished with another sample AS, this time it was Fine L'Orange Noir. I really like this scent, and I may add this to my future purchase list. Off to work for what looks like a long, busy day. I hope everyone has a great day!

    A Stirling SEptember

    Blade: Schick
    Razor: Schick J1 injector
    Brush: Jayaruh #60 synthetic
    Lather: Stirling Dunshire

    WTG, touch-up

    Top notch shave this morning. The J1 was great as usual and mowed down two days of growth with ease. The first couple of strokes weren't great and I put in a new Chick blade and picked right back up. Smooth and comfortable. Terrific lather and skin care from Stirling as expected. All around fine shave. Featherweight tomorrow.

    Enjoy your day!

    Nice shave again this morning. The E3 is a very reliable shaver and this old PAL blade appears to be the Energizer bunny. Good lather, 3 nice passes, a little neck touch up and near BBS again. Finished with the Old Spice to continue with the Drug Store mini-focus. Did I mention that Barbershop and anything Old Spice are SWMBO's favourites? Pure coincidence, I am sure.
    Have a great day all!

    13 SEptember 2017 Wool Fat Wednesday Blade Focus Shave

    Pre: The usual shinola
    Razor: MMOC
    Blade: Blue Star by GEM
    Brush: JJ#1
    Soap: The Fat
    Post: The usual shinola Part Deux
    After Shave: Herself's favorite, Aramis

    Wool Fat Wednesday, :happy036:.
    After JJ#1 whipped up a great, slick, cushiony lather, the duo of MMOC & Blue Star rid my face of its weekday stubble. Noticed a bit of a drop off today. Only a DFS this morning. But its all good. Applied some Aramis to my mug and it was off for breakfast(Homemade Biscuit & Sausage Gravy) at work.
    Have a great shave, have a great day!

    Razor: Schick '500' Injector
    Blade: Chick (2)
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft 22
    Cream: KMF fragrance-free
    Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

    I think I forgot to post yesterday's shave, but it was the same as today's right down the line. Two nice, comfortable shaves from the 500 and Chick. Both high DFS/near-BBS with no issues.

    I'm supposed to be receiving an English Gillette New today. If it arrives and I can get it cleaned up, that will probably be tomorrow's razor. It should be interesting... it's only my second English Gillette and, to be honest, the first one is not one of my favorites.

    Very Cool razor Keith.

    L'Orange Noir is one of my favorite scents. Love the filter effect Jim.

    Great photo Perry.

    Love the travel lineup Brian.

    Great photo Jason. The E3 looks to be in fantastic shape.

    You have really nailed it with the MMOC. Bravo.

    Great photo as usual Mark.

    Things are back closer to normal this morning. Still a lot of trees down on surface streets but at least the office had power and I could get here. A near perfect shave this morning followed by a splash of F&C. I have to take my daughter for an MRA and injection this afternoon so it will be a short workday for me. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    I'm in North Augusta. Just a couple hours away. We actually vacationed in Bluffton this summer. Beautiful little town. If you find your way there again, let me know.

    Nice picture, Jason. I like how the brush tips appear be floating above the brush.
