    Today's shave
    Hot water wash with a washcloth
    Brothers Bristles/ ace black badger
    Ogallala stick
    Clauss 2502 5/8 full hollow spike
    Modified Superior70
    Today's shave was nice. Nice lather, today i could smell past the bay rum and could detect the limes in the mix. Three passes with the 2502, very close, a little blood. This blade is just very sharp. No matter, nothing got cut off but stubble, just a few weepers. Finished with the modified superior 70, lets call it the "coloado blend". Fine shave, time will tell how comfy.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better. 20170214_085456_resized.jpg

    I cannot believe how nice this Top Ten Sensitive cream is. I love its scent, its super-rich lather, and its strong menthol sensation. As I said, it's perfect for sensitive skin. The Rubby Dubby Doo was an awesome, freezing finish to a wonderful BBS shave! :happy088: :happy088:

    CO Bigelow 1585 cologne

    It's amazing how different badger and synthetic brushes make lather. Since I use synthetic 95% of the time, I'm a bit out of practice with a badger and it showed in the lather I tried to make. All came out well in the end but the journey wasn't as nice as I would have liked. Oh well, there's always tomorrow. Now go enjoy your day folks

    Hello fellow Shave Denizens, here's a look at today's SOTD. -

    [​IMG]

    Razor: Gillette TV Special Super Speed. (1958).
    Blade: Vintage Wizamet Super Iridium.
    Brush: Omega travel brush-(boar bristle).
    Soap: TOBS Traditional Luxury Shaving soap.
    PSB: Nivea (sensitive. ).
    Cologne: 4711, and Bulgari Extreme combination.

    This was an all around perfect, or near perfect shave. I had some trouble keeping the lather fluffy, but the boar brush is helping in that area. I still need more practice though. The wonderful scents of the soap, as splash, and both colognes are a fantastic medley. I'm off to impress my doctor and nurse, so wish me luck. God bless, and have a great day!

    Excellent shave, solid A-, just a couple pickups where the Shake Sharp gets closer. I can live with the three dot plate but no question a more aggressive plate would be welcome.

    Love the scent of this soap. The shave went extremely well. Slight razor burn but that was from using a vintage thin blade. . Overall I had a great shave!
