    Hello ram57. Ever since I first tried these old Polish wonders a couple of years ago, I loved them too. It is too bad they are no longer available. I only have a couple left. Have a great day!!!

    My shower was the usual one, but another Clubman Country Club shampoo morning, and Clubman Hair Styling Gel to add(after the shave).

    Passable shave from the Damaskeene with a vintage Paradise blade. Definitely a shits and giggles situation, not good enough for a BBS head shave. Tabac is marvelous.

    What a wonderful cream this Top Ten Sensitive is. It's from Bulgaria and it has a very nice scent with rich, stable lather along with a good cooling effect as well as lots of soothing. The Rubby Dubby Doo's freeze is right up my alley! ;) :D

    Pre: Hot shower with Speick soap and conditioner to the face
    Brush: Semouge Owners Club SE 2012
    Cream: C. O. Bigelow
    Razor: Merker 38c
    Blade: Persona Med Prep
    Post: Menthol crystal spiked witch hazel
    Aftershave: Osage
    Lotion: Gillette aftershave lotion
    Cologne: Aspen by Coty

    Really liking the Menthol Monday shave combo I used. Even though it was 30 degrees this morning, my face still feels well moisturized. The only sad news is that the COB tube is getting very low. Have only 5-6 shaves worth of cream left. Then I will be breaking out the tube of Irisch Moos that I've had on deck for some time now.

    Today's shave was with a razor I just restored, and honed today. It was a nice two pass shave, that went very smooth, with little feedback. BBS results, without nicks, cuts, or weepers.

    Razor- Wade & Butcher Medium Hollow Ground
    Brush- B-$00 By Tom
    Soap- ARKO/Sandalwood scented
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy.

    I was going to go big today and instead went small. Instead of reaching for my largest blade, I picked up the smallest. With a hint of a smile and a smaller blade the Friedr Schlemper was super easy to maneuver and left me with a lovely shave. :happy093:

    Haslinger Honig Shave Soap

    The B-400 is amazing. I still cannot believe how well it's made, I've refrained from using natural hair because of drying time in the winter, but that's gonna change tomorrow.
