February 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Stunning shave my friend! That lather is amazing.

 

Thank you, Joe. I humbly accept the award.

 

The juice I sent you is ‘vintage’, it is from the tin can version. It is definitely more potent than what the sell now in the bottle.

 

It's such a compelling scent. Very enjoyable but not cloying or overpowering in any way.

 

Thank you. Made it home safely.

 

Now I got to find some of this…

 

Thank you, Perry.

 

After doing a little reading, I understand the Vintage (can) even came in two versions. The Original contained oakmoss that was replaced with alternatives in later versions. Reviews suggest the reissue is very similar if more expensive than vintage which is weird, and the 1st version had that little extra umph that gets the Ladies attention.

 

Very nice Jim. Enjoy your weekend.

What more can i say? Love the setup and pic Clint.

Great shave Perry.

I get some real good shaves with my FW Danny. Its a nice razor.

Seems like you really enjoyed that shave Jason. Awesome!

I like that knot on that brush , one compliments the other.

You're making progress Randy. Doing great.

Im using my Frankensoap today also John, since i don't have the fat. I found all the Russian steel i tried so far were good.

You should have been a writer Joseph. Another great report!

I couldn't say no to that face either Dale.

Same here . #6

 

Thank you, Patrick!

 

Thanks Patrick!

Good morning!

Busy start to the thread today! Excellent shaves and photos along with terrific progress! Well done!

I shaved a few hours ago and just getting around to posting now. What a truly wonderful shave. Three passes to BBS result. The Timeless .95 felt so smooth this morning after the first two strokes I stopped to verify there was a blade in it. When I purchased the Timeless I was still a long ways in my technique from where I'm at now. I was torn between the .68 and the .95. I'm so glad I went with the .95, just awesome!

Wholly Kaw King of Bourbon up for today. Lovely scent. This blend has water buffalo milk in it. Really? Water buffalo milk? There's somebody out there who's job it is to milk water buffalos? Who knew? The performance is top tier in my book. Super slick lather laid the foundation for today's shave.

I went with the Envy Supreme White Eight Ball brush as it fits the Favorites February theme. I like this knot so much I have another waiting on a handle to put it in.

Have a great Friday, gentlemen!

Thank you Patrick!

Thank you Clint!

Thank you Perry! It is unique and not just in the shape. The knot is much more dense than any other badger I've tried. It wouldn't release the "lather" of the cream assuming Cremo can lather.

That gives me a two stage Focus;
1) same brush/different soap
2) different brush/same cream

 

Superb photo and setup, Jim!

 

Thank you, Perry!

I wouldn't want that job either Jim, i really like your setup and pic today

 

You forgot to mention where I can get a can...

 

Woulda shoulda coulda...thank you Patrick.

 

Thank you, Patrick!
I choose to believe they are milking female water buffalo as the alternative is horrifying.
