Thanks very much Steve. It was a surprise that is for sure.

 

Good picture today!

 

Eufros!
This was my first use of Jabonman Eufros and Wow I'm impressed. The lather built easily from the sample and the scent was delicious. I enjoy ylang ylang, but I could not point one out to you. The Futur easily glided through the thick slick yogurty goodness in three easy passes. I used CL Unconditional Surrender to finish and it left my skin soft and moisturized comfortably.
Prep: Chatillon Lux butter
Soap: Jabonman Eufros Tallow Ylang ylang
Brush: BB Bronze Shadow
Razor: Futur
Blade: voskhod
AS: Chattilon Lux Unconditional Surrender

It is a difficult time for farmers also. Hard to get on the fields, although there may be 3 cuts of hay this year.

Good picture and setup Jim. Have a great day.

 

This time the Glacial Lemon Chill soap was my weapon of choice and I'm so happy I used it. The freeze was overwhelming, the lather was sublime, and my face felt so smooth, with such a nice, relaxed feeling in addition to the cooling, or I should say cold tingle. The matching witch hazel went on frigidly-cold to make the end of this awesome shave a delight!

Marvelous shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Three passes for a dolphin smooth and refreshing finish. Enjoy your day friends.

SOTD May 9, 2017

Blade: GEM Stainless
Razor: GEM 1912
Brush: Omega Hi synthetic
Lather: Proraso Green
Post: Witch hazel, Barbasol Pacific Rush aftershave
WTG, touch-up

Nice and easy shave this morning. The 1912 is smooth and efficient. This is a smaller tub of Proraso and is nearing its end. It is morphed into a soft croap at this point. I think I'll shave with it every other shave until I finish it up. Good results in the end.

Have a great day!

 

Thank you Doug.

 

Hello everyone. Today's shave:



- Chiseled Face "Ghost Town Barber"
- Tuxedo
- Phoenix DOC
- Sputnik blade
- CCH Tobacco Rasierwasser

It's been a while since I used the Phoenix DOC. Very nice razor, fun to use - and it looks much more aggressive than it actually is

 

SOTD: Vintage (asymmetrical) Kamisori-grind Hoshi Tombo#6000 13/16," Stirling high-menthol 'Coniferous' tallow soap, Omega #11137 boar brush, Fine 'Snake Bite' aftershave tonic. Slow & steady shave with this über-sharp 2" blade, all done right-handed (I'm a lefty). End result: smooooooth! Have a great Tuesday, gents!

 

Gillette Tech Bulldog
Polsilver SI (2)
Semogue BC Mistura
Iced Orange Arko SS

Another nice shave, but as I spend more time with the different iterations of the tech, the less functional difference i see. This was a triangle slot canadian.

 

Great picture!
