Thank you my friend Have a wonderful day!

 

Thank you Rob. A good shave does wonders to cheer one up.

 

Nice picture. The brush looks especially cool.

 

Thanks for the write up. You've inspired me to try an Astra in my Ambassador. It is quite aggressive. I thought the Astra was okay in my DE89. This should be interesting.

 

That sure is a nice razor.

 

Great looking brush.

 

Gillette New Short Comb/Custom Handle
Israeli Personna SS Blade
Ever-Ready 400BN Badger-Ion Brush
Winter 2015 Kringle Soap by Dapper Dragon
Witch Hazel
Lucky Tiger Aspen AS

Decided to go with the Winter 2015 Kringle soap sample from SHAVEWIZARD420 today. Not sure what kind of scent it's supposed to have, but it reminds me of leather. Together with the brush, slightly restored and customized, it produced a good lather and provided a decent amount of slickness for the razor. Together I received a very good three pass BBS shave.

 

Really liking the ATT SE-2 open comb. Finished with a splash of Agua Balsamica.

 

I hope that tooth feels better quickly!

 

The last couple of days, I have been burning up the speed shaving. I’ve enjoyed the resulting DFSs, but I much prefer to have the time to enjoy the shaving process, too.



After showering …

Blade: Gillette 7 O’clock Super Stainless
Soap / Cream: Cremo Cooling
Water: Cold

Post Shave: Thayer's Witch Hazel with Aloe & Thayer’s
Aftershave: Chiseled Face Groomatorium’s Summer Storm

 

Thank you. I didn't like it at first, but it has become one of my favorites.

 

Razor: Timeless Stainless Steel Open Comb w/Timeless Plaid Handle
Blade: Gillette Platinum (6)
Brush: El Druida Cocobolo w/ Druida Manchurian
Soap: Route 66 Perfect Storm
Aftershave: Floid Vigoroso

The handle in this brush is Cocobolo which is a tropical hardwood of Central American trees belonging to the to the genus Dalbergia . Only the heartwood is used; this is typically orange or reddish-brown in color, often with a figuring of darker irregular traces weaving through the wood. The handle has a nice orange hue to it.
The shave was great accompanied with a new brush always helps for me. My traditional 3 passes with minimal clean up.
