    Good photo Joseph. What am I supposed to pick up about the soap wrapper?

    Great picture Chris. The brush is interesting. Will you tell me what it's made of and the knot?

    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Nivea Men Face Wash
    Col. Conk Lime
    Bunny B-400 Badger
    Parker Variant
    Kai Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS

    The Col. Conk Lime Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Bunny B-400 Badger brush. I did two passes with the Parker Variant razor and Kai Stainless blade, and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Why was I thinking you moved to Chicago? Was that ever in the mix? Where in Texas did you end up? :signs002:

    Thursday morning - gotta write it now:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Rapira day 4
    Stirling Sharp Dressed Man S/S :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055:
    Lubriderm Unscented Moisturizer :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055:
    Acqua di Selva Cologne

    I'll be trying out another splendid Stirling soap which does not contain any menthol - it's the world famous Sharp Dressed Man that I waited so long to get my hands on. Its scent is indeed gorgeous, as well as classy! ;) :D

    DaltonGang Ol' Itchy Whiskers

    This Japanese blade has been giving me good shaves for a while, but not excellent shaves. I will fix it. The last time I honed it, I remember the steel was super hard, and thick. So, I will put it to the stones again. Or, hit the pasted strop a little, then strop the snot out of it on the leather. I had a 2 pass DFS, with zero issues. It's too interesting to just leave as a second string razor.

    Razor- Japanese 泰平 TAIHEI 東京
    Brush- Semogue 1305
    Soap- Stirling Ozark Mountain
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman

    Probably my best with the F and hard to beat. Extremely efficient but still comfortable.
