    I'll have a look at the Jeeves website to see what I think.

    8th focus shave


    I experienced the best shave of the focus so far. I performed two passes and touch ups on two days of growth, resulting in a very close, comfortable shave. I saw one small patch at 10X that I just flat out missed. By that time, I had removed the blade and cleaned the razor, so I left it for annihilation tomorrow. Otherwise, everything looked good.

    I hope everyone is having a restful Sunday.

    Mid morning shave earlier today. Only a 2 passer as I’ll be shaving for work tomorrow first thing in the morning. Another Yahk Soap Co Shaving Soap courtesy of another gift from the inlaws at Christmas. I’m going to have to find a polite way of saying ‘no mas’ or I’ll have one each year. I scraped some into the bowl to avoid loading in the ridiculous 2” tub and got a functional lather. It looks the part, and is creamy enough, but just doesn’t have the slickness or face feel of a top tier artisan. It is better than a few others I’ve used, though. They are known for goats milk products, but as there is none in this soap, I suspect it is a melt and pour. Scent is light and fine, and today’s Jeeves product, the BoS splash, seems to go well enough with it.
    Have a great afternoon all!

    Thank you, Doug. I'm very fortunate to have a @jtspartan handcrafted brush. I hope you're having a great weekend. It's mighty warm and sunny here.
