    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Soap Commander Fortitude. That soap will be my first official "big tub" buy from them in the not too distant future. The tub of Courage was a gift and after sampling a few I've decided Fortitude is worthy of my den. Very nice soap.

    You know, I almost asked where you ordered that when I read the first line. Imagine my relief when I realized what it really was. That is a very cool razor he built.

    Thank you, gentlemen. Your kind thoughts and prayers are much appreciated. I expect I won't be on here much for the rest of the month, but I do very much like the general kindness and support that this group routinely extends to all its members.

    July 25 SOTD:

    Razor: Gillette Flare Tip Rocket
    Blade: Polsilver
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft
    Lather: TSD Barber Shoppe
    Aftershave: TSD Floid Blue Type
    Additional Care:
    Osage Rub
    Stirling Unscented PSB

    I am on to my last SS style razor, the Flare Tip Rocket. It makes for a nice, easy shave. I don't think I mentioned that I finished up the Barbon SC on Monday (@Drygulch), so I used some TSD Barber Shoppe along with the Floid Blue Type AS. It is definitely a good smelling combination and gets my day off on the right foot. I hope everyone has a great!
