Beautiful razor Alan.

 

Thanks for the compliment, @clint64

 

Hello all, here's my OC SOTD for today-

Gillette Goodwill short comb.
Crystal blade.
Simpsons Duke2 pure badger brush.
Caties Bubbles Spanish Holiday soap.
Nivea post shave balm.
Avon Mesmerize as lotion.
Avon Mesmerize cologne.



I rarely use my Goodwill razors, but judging by tonight's shave I probably should use them more. This shave went off without a hitch or stitch. These razors are amazing! I rate this shave as a two pass BBS! Have a great night people!

Menthol Monday... Ginger's Garden Luna is a great performer and the lady loves pamplemousse so it's a win/win! The 15 did its job well as always and I'm feeling ready to head back to work!

Timeless OC .95 Gap with Windrose SS

“Los Tres Amigos Dos” CH2 Synthetic LE
Route 66 Twisted Tweed
Witch Hazel
Myrsol F/Extra

​

I will be using Route 66 Twisted Tweed for the first part of the month in an effort to finish off the tub. The scent to me is of a light green fougere which I find very pleasing. Route 66 soaps in general are very easy to lather and tolerant of various amounts of water. So as expected the CH2 Synthetic easily whipped up the Twisted Tweed into a wonderful rich slick lather. Three passes and touch ups with the Timeless OC left me with a smooth and close shave. I finished up the shave with a splash of Myrsol F/Extra. I hope everyone has a fantastic New Year's Day.

 

First razor of 2017 (That didn't take long... ). Gillette Senator...

 

Beautiful razor. Congrats.
