Razor: Portland Razor Co Chimera / Supply Provision Custom 3 dot head Blade: Chick Strop: Drygulch 45 Brush Handle: B-400 The Brush by Tom Knot: APShaveCo Tuxedo Soap: Eufros Jabonman GEA Post Care: Thayers Witch Hazel Alum Osage Rub Aftershave: Eufros Jabonman GEA balm Another wonderful and relaxing shave this morning. My first use of an Eufros product and I see why it is in such demand. The soap was easy to lather, offered great protection, a wonderful scent and was one of the slickest soaps I've ever used. Both razors just glided across my face. One pass with the Supply and two with the Chimera and I'm close to BBS. It's getting easier to use this Chimera. Alum was mostly silent, slight tickle on my lower neck. The Eufros balm was nice; not greasy with a wonderful albeit short lived scent. I've been directed to a cologne that matches this scent pretty closely that I need to order. Have a great day folks!
Today's shave was with a West German Solingen rescue razor. I have a fantastic 2 pass shave, with Baby Dolphin Butt smooth results. Zero nicks, cuts, or weepers. Excellent razor. Razor- Dovo. Made in West Germany, Solingen. Brush- Zenith Boar. Aluminium Handle. Soap- Stirling Spice Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman.
Old W&B that I honed up this afternoon. Yep, that's right. Just Village Barber oil and a straight. Quick, easy BBS. If you have never tried it, you should. Use about 2-3 ml of oil on a wet face. That's it. Rinse face and wipe off blade between passes. Towel dry your face and don't rinse after done. Just don't do this too often, or your soaps/creams/brushes, etc. will get jealous!
I used my Henry Sears and Son razor this morning. It's a talkative blade and provides plenty of feedback. Wonderful shave!
First shave with a newly restored and honed Wade&Butcher. It just didn't cut it ( pun intended) on the first pass So I'm going to send this one back to get stoned... Finished up with the Flic. What a great shaver
Razor: Portland Razor Co Chimera / Supply Provision Custom 3 dot head Blade: Chick Strop: Drygulch 45 Brush Handle: B-400 The Brush by Tom Knot: APShaveCo Tuxedo Soap: Saponificio Varesino Arctic Tundra Post Care: Thayers Witch Hazel Alum Osage Rub Fragrance: JPD Oud Noir Wonderful shave this morning to start off Sunday. I can't say enough good things about this soap, it lathers easily, offers excellent protection and glide. I've been searching for a while for a scent to match up with this soap and I think I found it. This Oud Noir has a wonderful woody scent with a slight citrus note, it matches the Arctic Tundra well. One pass with the Supply, two with the Chimera and I'm left with a DFS. Have a great day folks!
I think you have me confused with someone else Brian, I never chipped this blade. If I did I'd still be crying.
full British today. Joseph Elliot best silver steel Dr Harris windsor soap and splash vulfix pure badger. super smooth edge on this one.BBS after two passes and a touch up. if anyone can date this razor, that would be cool
With our correct. It was Keith. You have to same razor and he chipped his yesterday and honed it. I was traumatized to hear that and mistakenly posted when I saw your razor
New brush too. Looked like a 24 maybe 26, gonna have to grab the calipers from the garage because it's more like a 28 or 30 and lathers like a monster. Still love it though. Nice and smooth on 2 days of growth.
