    Early Sunday morning shave with one of my favorites: vintage IXL razor from George Wostenholm of Sheffield. SC 'Courage' soap & balm. Have a blessed Sunday, gents!

    Awesome pic! I wish it was "scratch & sniff" capable. See if you can work on that, OK?

    It's my wife's collection of elves (they're all over the house this time of year) and sleighs, save for the little tin one shown in yesterdays shave pic. She has a booth in a local antique shop and stuff keeps following her home!

    First shave since Wednesday.......down with the Flu. Still doing poorly, but had to shave today.

    Sunday

    Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep
    Soap: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle
    Razor: Gillette Super Adjustable “Black Beauty”
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3)
    Brush: Wild West Brushworks/Elite Manchurian White-24mmx54mm
    Aftershave: Clubman Whiskey Woods

    WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard)


    Route 66 Bourbon Jungle today. 20 seconds to load the Wild West Brushworks/Elite Manchurian White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette Silver Blue in the Gillette “Black Beauty”. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Clubman Woods & Spice aftershave.

    Todays shave was with a German Made razor, that takes on a wickedly sharp edge. I had a silky smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me near BBS. Great razor. Everyone should own one, no matter the condition, as long as it can take an edge.

    Razor- Dubl Duck Special No 1.
    Brush- Omega 10098, Boar.
    Soap- Arko/Sandalwood Scented
    Aftershave- Vintage Shulton Old Spice. Mmmmmm Mmmmmm Good.
