May those who died during the Pearl Harbor attack never be forgotten.

 

Great post.

 

Yep. I actually did this with three Stirling soaps, as I they work better for those mornings when I shave at the gym. Stirling is just as great as a shave stick as it is in a puck.

 

Thank you Buddy!

 

Thanks Steve...........

 

Very traditional "old school" shave..............

 

Wednesday's SOTD...........

Palmolive shave stick face lathered w/Omega 6151 Pure
Gillette New Long Comb paired w/a Derby Extra blade
Witch hazel followed by Nivea PSB finishing w/a splash of Aqua Velva Musk aftershave

2-passes for a fantastic shave!

 

Nice set up!

 

Today's shave
Hot water wash with nivea mens face wash and a washcloth
FS Silvertip
Taylor of Old Bond Street Avocado
Berkeley Custom Shaver (4)
Astra sp (3)
Pinaud Lilac Vegetal
Today's shave was very nice. Tobs avo is very good, lather,face feel and scent. The Berkeley gives a very good shave, and is easy to handle. The veg finished things up.(i feel nice, my wife would not agree)
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

 

Parker Variant razor
Gillette Silver Blue blade
Vulfix "The Strand" boar brush
Vintage Williams SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Pinaud Clubman A/S

Moved the setting on the Parker to 3 1/4 and got another fine shave. Will try 3 1/2 tomorrow but think it will still be fine. It doesn't take much to make a noticeable change in the feel of this razor. Always smooth and comfortable though. At any rate I'm ready to go do some Christmas shopping (Uggghhh). Now go enjoy your day folks.
