    I really love that brush. That handle is really beautiful. I really hope to try the Simpsons synthetic some day and if that handle is ever offered again, it's going to the top of my wishlist.

    If you are interested in a LE Simpson Synthetic, I would suggest you join Twitter and follow Simpson brushes. He posts photos on Twitter of various LE brushes. When you see something you like, let him know and ask for an invoice. They are all sold before listing on their web site. Just today he posted 3 LE Simpson Duke 3 synthetic brushes on Twitter.

    Henri et Victoria Cognac & Cuban Cigars today. 20 seconds to load the H et V HMW. Easy, thick, slick, lather. I loaded a new Personna Med Prep in the Gillette NEW SC. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Henri et Victoria Cognac & Cuban Cigars aftershave.

    Today's shave
    Hot water wash with a washcloth
    Oscar 11/omega
    Bombed Sara's Creations lavender eucalyptus and mint
    Merkur Futur (3.5)
    Persona lab (2)
    Jockey Club Ancaster Lavender
    Today's shave was nice, mentholated the Sara's Creations for menthol Monday. Three passes with the Futur, avoiding the slice it gave me yesterday. It shocked me pretty well. I had thought my hand had been educated, but in a momentary lapse of focus, ut got me. Today it got all my attention. Finishing with lavender. Im lovin' the lavender lately.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better.

    Razor: Gillette SS Flare Tip
    Blade: Gillette 7`oclock (4)
    Brush: VDH Badger- not shown
    Pre Shave Oil; Hibco Nag Champa
    AS: brut Splash On, topped Off with Hibco Nag Champa Btter Balm
    Newspaper Date: Dec. 9,1943

    Another 2 pass Dolphin smooth shave. 1st pass, WTG without incident, 2nd pass, ATG/XTG again without incident. I guess the flare tip, and nag champa combination works really well. I will continue the same combination, just to make sure. Needless to say I`m a Happy camper and wishing the same success for all members. God Bless.
