SOS: February 2019

Razor: Gillette Fatboy Exective F-1
Blade: Personna 74 Tungsten (5)
Brush: 30DC LE w/ MS 2 Band 100% Finest 24/63
Soap: TSD Blood & Steel LE
A/S: Folsom Capri

Still keeping my rule for the month of February. Also using my FatBoy's this month. This razor blade is amazing, but I guess most of you already know that. The brush just gets better with every use. Great handle is reat and looks a little better after a good polishing, and I'm really enjoying this knot.
As you can see we have a quit a bit of snow this year. We set a record for snow fall in January, and we are well on our way to set another record in February.

 

Tabacstag
Jeder Tag ist ein guter Tag für Tabac! Ich benutzte dieses Biest weit offen für die Wangen und wählte den Hals für meinen Hals. Es war sehr effizient, aber ich bekam danach ein wenig Verbrennungen. Tabac versagt nie.

Have a great day, all!​

 

Been shaving and logging, just not shooting, finally back at it. Yesterday's.
Rex Ambassador / Rappira Platinum Lux / Grizzly Bay Infinity's Edge / Eufros Vetiver

The Rappira Platinum Lux is a very good blade, and it worked great with the Rex. Started 3 WTG then 3.5 ATG, likely will run a little milder start 2.5/2 next go.

 

Thank you very much Guy. It is a great brush. Do you have one of these knots?

 

Great looking shave. Beautiful brush.

 

Knockout/PolSilver (1). A pleasure.

 

Pre: Warm water splash
Brush: Cyril R. Salter Travel PB

Blade: Gem Stainless ptfe
Post: Warm then cold water rinse, Layrite No.9 ASL

My scritchiest brush but it's not unpleasantly so.
Happy Shaving one and all.

 

I have one 30mm MS finest, a 30mm MS silvertip, a 24mm MS finest in a barbershop handle and somewhere around here I have a 24mm MS finest knot that I bought to drop in a vie-long beehive handle but cant find it. I think MS knots are great bang for the buck. I do have an elite 2 band Manchurian inbound in a trade I made last week.

My first B&M purchase in quite a while. Scent out of the tub is terrific. Looking forward to this shave​

Thank you Doug. One of my two 'fan' knots, fun to work with for sure.

 

I enjoyed the soap so much yesterday I decided to use it again today. This time I barely loaded the brush and got a lot of lather from it. The R41 really does like to let you feel the flaws of a blade. I noticed that when I use a blade that has some mileage on it, the shave feels rough and sort of like shard glass across the skin. But with a new blade, you barely feel it when it slices you. No issues after the shave though, no sting and no blood..

 

Thursday's Plan:

prep-Dial 4 Men Bodywash(Max. Moisture)in shower
shave-Chiseled Face Soap(Ghost Town Barber)
brush-Maggard 26 MM Synthetic(Marble Handle)
razor-Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot + DisposeABLE
A.S.-Chiseled Face Splash(Ghost Town Barber)

 

That's one of their new soaps, right?
