    Thanks. They do become part of the family. At least this time the only second-guessing really is that I maybe should have taken him in a couple days sooner than I did.

    SOTD December 4, 2018

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Schick
    Razor: Schick H1 injector
    Brush: JR #60 synthetic
    Soap: Stirling Haverford
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Haverford aftershave

    Nice results with the Hussy and Stirling's new Haverford scent. This soap is a darker brown color and then changed to a tan color after sousing. The lather had the color of melted chocolate ice cream. But the performance was top notch - slick and protective with great post shave feel. Wonderful Stirling lather as usual. I have a mild cold so can't comment faithfully on the scent, but the shave was nice in the end.

    Long day today with school followed by our big Fine Arts Holiday concert tonight. Student art is on display in the school lobby with a photography slide show in the auditorium, then choir and band swap back and forth with performances. The theater kids made a short video and act as concert moderators, so it involves all of the arts at the school. Neat event for the community. Big thing for us to plan and execute, so I'll be tired tonight, but that's how it goes!

    Have a great day!

    Interesting razor, Perry. You have a busy day ahead, sounds like you started it of right. Hope the cold gets better.

    December 4th
    Razor: Blackland Dart
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (1)
    Brush: Maseto Finest badger
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: B&M Leviathan
    Thayers Rose witch hazel
    AS: B&M Leviathan

    Good morning!

    Excellent three pass shave from the Dart. BBS with silent alum. I don't have many shaves in with the Dart but it's already a favorite. Easy shaves that just come naturally.

    I loaded a fresh GSB into each of my DE's this last weekend to test them out. I haven't been a fan. They have never felt smooth to me. It must have been me because so far they feel great.

    Have a great day!

    December 4 SOTD:

    Razor: Karve Christopher Bradley
    Blade: Polsilver
    Brush: Elite Razor Manchurian White
    Lather: Grooming Dept After the Fire
    Aftershave: Maggards London Barbershop

    OK, this is a great soap. It is slick and the post shave feel is as good as the best soaps I have tried. Just a wonderful shave this morning. I am off to work today when my new boss will have his first staff meeting, so I'll get an idea of what to really expect. The refinery is shaking things up, so this next year should be interesting. I hope everyone has a great day!
