It's a Stub-tail Razor Day, for me. I really enjoy this Pre-Civil War Era razor. It never lets me down. I had a super smooth, and enjoyable 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. I had only one small weeper, that I didn't feel, or know it happened, until the shave was over. Razor- W. Greaves & Sons, Stub-tail. Soap- Stirling Ozark Mountain Brush- B400 By Tom Aftershave- Arctic Blue
Simply a fantastic shave with the Lund today. 3 days of growth reduced to nothing with a quick and easy shave. Loved every minute of it.

Robeson. Nice three pass shave. I've been camping since last Sunday. This is one of the four razors I drug along.
I used my Genco "Fluid Steel" this morning. It was not a bad shave, but this baby needs a little touch up on the hone before the next shave. I used the Maggards green apple soap this morning that @Herm2502 was kind enough to send to me. It provides a nice lather and has a potent scent of green apples. Good stuff!
