    I'll tell you about nearly being frostbit. If I'm wearing shorts and open up the frozen food door at the supermarket, I'd better get what I want FAST

    Thank you Andrew. I like the feel of the handle so I won’t transplant the knot.

    Thank you, Perry. I definitely like Speick; I am wanting to try the AS, but this may be a while.

    Thank you, Clint! Speick may be my favorite shave stick. It is slick with a light, pleasant scent. It has plenty of cushion and is easy to get just to the right consistency. It makes a great Dopp kit soap.

    October OC & Oddballs

    Williams Vintage Stick SS
    The King badger brush
    (Guest appearance; Suribachi)
    Gillette OC 3pc Old
    Rapira blade
    Avon Deep Woods AS

    Posting from my phone, can't place the photo where I want it...
    Anyways, an odd ball soap, but much cherished. Back in the day Williams used the right tallow and it lathers great! Since face lathering is supposed to work with a stick I tried it that way. First pass was OK, but couldn't get the brush to give up any, so rubbed the stick against rough ceramic and bowl lathered for 2nd & 3rd passes. I'd have tried to "load my face" but 1st pass cleaned away any helpful stubble. Good reduction from the old DE with no errors. Finished with a splash of vintage Avon. A little pine, probably a bit of musk, nothing special and little lasting lotion feeling. The decanter is a keeper when it's empty!

    Nice shot Rick! When using Tapatalk after you upload the image click on it and then choose to insert it inline and it will put it wherever the cursor is.
