    A repeat of last night's shave. Cremo is some slick stuff when you add water to it for the second pass and touch ups along the jawline.

    Yeah. Without those people who helped make the gear, I wouldn't have the shave kit. I would be at the mercy of the mass market. Artisans put heart and soul into things that the mass market items just seem to miss.

    Get one for your kitchen. Never know when you might get the urge to grind sesame seeds. Then you can take it for a test lather. ;)

    Hi everyone. Today's shave:

    rdt0208 copy.jpg


    - Nanny's Silly Soap "Arabian Nights"
    - Simpson Commodore X2
    - Schick G with Chick blade
    - Thayers Original Astringent


    Wonderful shave. Scent, slickness and post-shave feel of Nanny's soap is fantastic. But it is MUCH softer than I thought - texture reminds me of ToOBS shaving creams.

    Good shot. How does that knot preform in the Rubberset handle Clint? It looks a little floppy.

    The knot is set a touch high but still has the backbone of a TGN Finest due to the density of the knot. I really like the huge feeling on my face.

    This week has been quite warm up to now so what else could I be expected to use? Today the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap worked its menthol magic and gave me awesome, rich slick lather along with the lovely Sharp Dressed Man scent. A three pass bone-chillingly cold BBS shave was the result and the Glacial Unscented balm felt so moisturizing as well as ice-cold. Finally, the Rubby Dubby Doo brought the freeze to a new level!

    Have a good one, everybody and enjoy your shaves!
