February 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

What's the issue with a daily shave, Rick? Time?

 

I brought it to Google Translate. Apparently "suribachis" means either "You and the sisters" or "Slovikia" depending on how the wind blows. I've been known to verbify a noun, but it seems pluralizing a Japanese word is risky business.

 

citrus saturday feb favorite shave..brit early 50s ball end tech,polsilver and the rr 400 synth.. all played well together with the crabtree and evelyn lime combo..awesome 3 pass shave with no drama , abbs..the usual lower neck not bbs..out of town visitors next week so spring clean time,have a great day everyone..

 

That was my goal for this month Joseph. I usually fall into every other day shaves if left to what feels comfortable. All this technique gets me nice close reductions and since I'm not getting daily inspections by an employer or a member of the fairer sex it was just a self imposed objective.

 

I am my most critical inspector. Daily shaver.

 

Hand made, so they all come out a little different. She does seem to photograph and give dimensions for each individual piece. The one I went with was just slightly wider and shallower than the rest. I didn't mention my plans for it, but maybe I should have. At least let her know that I didn't need the pestle.

 

Great looking shave, Danny! I'll have to look into Murphy & McNeil.

 

Excellent picture, Doug!

 

Great set up, Rick!

 

Nice picture, Gary. I always like the cars.

 

Excellent picture and setup Rick.

 

Saturday morning February 23 - clean-up and wake-up shave

Rockwell 6s on plate 3 / Rapira Swedish Supersteel (3)
JR #320 mahogany handle with APShaveCo SynBad knot
Palmolive stick
Hendrix Classics Barbershop balm

A quick shave to refresh in a break between phone calls. I was going to do one pass and done, but it didn't feel done enough, so I lathered up for the second pass. As usual, one diagonal sort of WTG pass and one XTG pass left me smooth enough for all practical purposes. I am satisfied with DFS and no longer chase BBS with its resulting skin irritation.

Today's selection from my unnecessarily large collection of Favourites all performed to spec.

Then back to the telephone salt mines until I could post this during another lull....

 

thank you sir..i need to build more..

 

It was a rainy, messy, and cold day in Atlanta. I am sick of the rain.

 

Great classic shave and photo Rick.

 

Lovely shave and photo Gary.

 

Good to see you posting John. I hope your weekend is going well.

 

Thank you Jim, Doug, & Clint!

Neal @NCoxSTL gave license to use Favorites this month so I took a lazy but fully functional choice. I didn't use the Cartel approved StPete Super Stainless blades. These are the Indian Permasharp that some folks say are as good as Feathers. Either way Chris @Bama Samurai may approve of the Barbasol until he knows I molested it. Again. I like it wetter than right out of the can and enjot using my shave bowls.
