Happy anniversary! And with the Lord`s help, many more. Best wishes and good luck.

Bill
BTW, a pretty good post too.

 

What a great weekend. Terrific shave today. I am really liking this brush. This is the first time I use a rockwell blade. Pretty nice blade. Very forgiving.

Bill, have a nice day buddy.

 

Thank you Robert!

 

SOTD June 11/2016
Razor - Gem 1912 (first use)
Brush - Epsilon dense white horse hair
Soap - Speick
Bowl - Tinned Copper

The Gem 1912 proved to be an interesting tool. Close shave with good audible feedback. Switched blade early on to test vintage vs new blade. New blade proved sharper. Developed a wheeper on chin but could be due to first use naïveté. Did a full 4 pass down, side-side, and up.
Smooth skin with a bit of burn on neck which was soon pacified with Thayers and Alum block.

 

Prep - Woods Of Windsor Cedar Woods soap / Pre-lather / 3 min steam
Razor - Gillette Slim Adjustable
Blade - Gillette Silver Blue (#2)
Brush - Shavemac Raptor 26/52 DO1 3 Band Bulb
Soap - Valobra Menthol (sample)
After - Frozen towel / Cien Ice A/S
Result - Dolphin Smooth

 

I too like it although I admit my favorite Pinaud aftershave is the Special Reserve.

 

Happy Anniversary Clint. !!

Feliz Aniversário

 

Today was a great Saturday Morning shave. I have the house all to myself, so I picked my bestest, all to myself scent: Stirling Ben Franklin. 'Cause sometimes you just gotta smell like an old man's pants.....

I missed a couple of days, so it is always a treat to get out the scritchy Duke in Pure, and rough things up a little bit.

Used a 5 plate on the Rockwell with a GSB on its second outing. A cup of really dark coffee, and things were perfect.

Have a great weekend, everyone.

SHAVE OF THE DAY



Prep: gustafsons woodlands
Razor: Gillette Red Tip
Blade: Ladas (5th shave)
Brush: RazoRock plissoft
Soap: OSP Sandalwood
Post: Osage Rub/ Captains Choice North Balm




2 pass shave this morning, 2nd shave with the OSP soap. It made a much better lather than last time, spent a bit more time loading and it really did the trick. The scent i did not care for at first, but it has grown on me, unlike any Sandalwood I have encountered. Was chasing the BBS shave, but luckily I didn't get burned in any way. The blade is still Goin strong, will keep going untill it shows signs of age. Finished the shave with CC North balm, very nice juniper Bay rum scent and feels moisturizing on the skin. Hope everyone has a wonderful shave!

Another beautiful picture.

I have a question about the WR-1 SB. Do you know if this head is more aggressive than the OC heads that Wolfman Razor offers?
