Thank you Jim.

The PAA DOC is one of the coolest looking razors.

 

Thank you, Clint. This razor is great looking and great shaving. It is fun to use again.

 

Thank you Jim, have a great day buddy!

 

Beautiful photo Jim and excellent setup!

That should be easy.

 

How do you like Gatlinburg?

Thank you buddy. Hope things weren't too bad for you after Matthew.

 

I like it quite a bit. It is definitely a woodsy scent. Almost a wet cedar type of scent. A little vanilla thrown in. Makes me feel like fall.

A very nice shave today. The tube of tet-a-tet is still holding on to life. At best, there are only a few shaves left...

 

I'll be using stuff which I've neglected for a long time - for example, this Krasnaya Linya (Red Line) cream from Russia is awesome stuff. A very nice, classy scent, very easy to lather with a soothing and comfortable feeling both during and after a shave. When I finished, I slapped on a little Razorock Don Donato aftershave which seems to pair very well with the scent of this cream. My Astra blade is weakening somewhat but I still managed to get a good BBS shave this morning!

 

SOTD: Peaceful Saturday shave. I've been using the 'Fougére' scented Martin de Candre for some time but made the switch today to the 'regular' scented version. Added a good splash of TSD M-Bomb to enhance the 'face freeze factor' of the dense lather & applied it with a large Lijun 32mm silvertip. This is only my second shave using this fine old Freddy Reynolds rattler. I've another vintage FReynolds on its way to me— a large 7/8" blade—so it'll be nice to compare two distinctly different razors from the same maker. TSD "Iced Jasmine" aftershave splash to finish a very nice shave!
