    Another great shave this morning. I have really enjoyed the Jeeves Bay Rum that Adam sent. The soap has proven to be easy to lather, slick and with good post shave feel. The interesting take on Bay Rum scent was an added bonus. However all good things come to an end. @Drygulch Adam mark me down for another soap finished and gone bring the total to 4 so far this year. Two passes and touch ups ended just short of a BBS shave which is more than good enough. A splash of Krampert's Bay Rum Aftershave and I am ready for the day. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Personna
    Razor: Schick G4 '66' injector
    Brush: Stirling Kong synthetic
    Soap: Soap Commander Passion
    Post: Witch hazel, RazoRock Blue Barbershop aftershave

    Nice and easy shave with this combination. I really enjoy Soap Commander and the RazoRock Blue Barbershop has grown on me by leaps and bounds. I look forward to using it. The Schick 66 was smooth and comfortable. All around terrific shave.

    Have a great day!

    Great photo as usual, Clint. How many shaves did you get from the Jeeves? I think I remember Adam saying the offerings were around 2.5 ounces.

    Thank you Perry. I did not weigh the sample but I did put it in a shave stick container designed for 2.5 oz and it only filled it up 2/3 of the way. I will have to confirm but the exact number at home but it was some where around 20 shaves. I likely lost a couple of shaves worth of soap switching from the shave stick to the tub.

    I bought a new bodywash(pre-shave)...Dial 4 Men Maximum Hydration. I think I like it better than Odor Armor.

    Clint @clint64, Jim @Norcalnewb, and Perry @PLAla -- great photos and shave reports this morning, gentlemen! Reading them and admiring the gear was a wonderful way to start the morning.

    Somehow your post eluded my multi-quote. Fantastic photo, Jim! I'm glad you are liking the new shavette so much!

    Thank you Andrew. I have several that I am working on but C.O. Bigelow will be the next one gone. After that it will take time since I am rotating soaps. I feel there will be at least another 5 before the end of the year.
