Great Pic!

 

Thanks

 

I did it again - an awesome shave which was so enjoyable. That Barbon cream sure lathers like it's going out of style, and I LOVE the scent. The Nivea Sensitive balm felt nice and soothing, as well as cooling.

Today's shave was nice. Great lather, nice sharp passes, wash up with astringent then rub down with balm.
Cool, close and comfy.
Hope y'all did as well, or better.

I don't remember us talking about this before, just remember seeing pix of your NOS box. With the Feather blade a great shave, NOS blades just didn't do it for me.

Pre shave - Proraso

Holy cow! Those Wholly Kaw Tallow soaps are definitely up there in the big league... lashings of creamy, protective lather, that did a fantastic job of keeping things in order with the Weber / Gillette Silver Blue, and providing a wonderful post shave feel.... a superb start to my weekend.

Two Passes, WTG/ATG easy, clean and smooth passes with some clean up. Result was better than a DFS. Not sure about these razors that use "Artist Club" type blades, I`m getting good shaves with standard de blades for a lot less $s., and not nearly as harsh, just my opinion. I`ll have to experiment more to make an informed decision. Maybe there`s a longer learning curve. The 2 razors I have that uses the Kai Titan blades are absolutely beautiful, but I always say " Function over form", Kinda hard to get rid of "shiny" things, think I caught the "shiny" bug. Satisfied with this morning`s shave. God Speed to the rest.

Without a doubt!

 

Blessings to you and your family today, Brian! What a happy day for you all!
