    Gillette New SC
    Gillette Silver Blue (4)
    30DCLE (26mm, Frigate class)
    Stirling Baker Street
    Baxter of California ASB

    With two shaves left in FAVuary I decided to pull out my favorite Gillette, The New SC. Loaded a GSB that's been around the block a few times, lathered up some Stirling Baker Street and went to town. Three smooth easy passes (WTG,ATG,XTG) left me just shy of catching the baby. Finished off with some Baxter ASB for a nice menthol finish. Have a great day my friends!

    Great to see you posting again Brian. I hope things are starting to settle down for you after the move.

    Great photo Jared. So the new formula for Catie's Bubbles is much better? If so I might have to give it another try.

    Great lineup and photo. That soap appears to be disappearing quickly.

    Great photo and lineup Andrew. How much different is the SC from the LC?

    Thanks Clint! They aren't that different, just enough to let you know that they are different though. I find the SC just a tad more efficient then the LC.

    I am running very slow this morning after a rough night. Taking a break between tax returns to catch up on the thread and post. A very good three pass shave with touch ups this morning. I did end up with a weeper/small nick on my right jawline due to operator error. The Rocnel doesn't suffer fools very well and made me pay a small price. I hope everyone has a great Monday.

    This brush will always be special because the 3 of us worked together on the choices and had it made for us. :happy088:
