    Epic shave today. Puzzle's name is fitting, the scent is definitely a puzzle. I came pinpoint much of anything, but my wife says she detects honeydew. It is a very nice scent nonetheless. The aftershave is top notch too. [​IMG]

    This is my sixth shave with the Böker. The Arko Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #150 synthetic brush. I did two passes the H. Böker 5/8, I ended up with a close, comfortable shave with no blood.:happy108: After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Speick AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    I like the scent. I've used it two days and it's making a nice lather. It's not as slick as Route 66.

    Friday's Shave: Last shave for the week. This week I have been going through all my "woodsy" scented soaps. The last one today is Stirling's Coniferous. A great scent with great lather. Merkur 34c with a Gillette Silver Blue blade, Omega Hi-Brush synthetic, Nivea and finish with a splash of Cella after shave. One great shave. The wife is out of town again on business - China this time. So I'm off to the local bar with a big TV, decent bourbon, and good bar food.

    THURSDAYS SHAVE
    20170324_212341.jpg

    Prep: Musgo Real orange amber
    Razor: Wilkinson Sword Classic

    Blade: Gillette Green
    Brush: RazoRock BC Plissoft
    Soap: Ballenclaugh Hot Barrel Rose
    Post:Lucky Tiger, Reef Point Dragons Blood Balm


    Had a excellent 3 pass shave yesterday. Was the maiden voyage for this cheap razor, nice and mild but eficicent. Got a smooth BBS shave. The scent of HBR is a bit unique but Ballenclaugh is a top notch soap performance wise. Very happy with the shave results.

    Friday's SHAVE
    20170324_212118.jpg

    Prep: Taconic Bay Rum Metholated
    Razor: Wilkinson Sword Classic
    Blade: Gillette Green
    Brush: RazoRock BC Plissoft
    Soap: Gingers Garden Maharani tallow
    Post: matching aftershave


    Easy shave this night. I think I prefer the tallow version to the vegan, but both are great suds. The scent of this one is sweet and perhaps a middle eastern vibe to it as well. Nice scent and the A/S scent lasts a long time which is a plus. Not as smooth a shave as yesterday but still on the mild side. Really enjoying this cheap Wilkinson Razor and wanted to try it a few times in a row to see how it goes. Can't believe this blade is still going it will be retiring soon. Hope everyone enjoyed their shaving experience!
