    May 11 SOTD:

    Blade: Rapira PL
    Brush: PAA The Green Ray
    Lather: PAA Cavendish
    Aftershave: PAA Cavendish
    Additional Care:

    It is wonderful to be home, and shave just fit with the morning. Two passes with the Ascension resulted in a DFS. Some nice Cavendish scent to wrap it up, and I get to spend some time with my family. I hope everyone has a great day!

    My wife us dragging me off to a wedding this afternoon :angry019: so I needed to get a shower in and a shave. No shower pictures ;) but I did get a nice shave in with a shave picture below. I really like the round handle on the Schick. Two passes and a few touch up areas. Tickle of Alum followed by some Nivea balm. Then a splash of SDM glorious stank! Now I have to get out the door to the funeral. ........I mean wedding! Y'all have a great day. 20190511_113337.jpg

    Neutrogena Men's Face Scrub
    Proraso PreShave
    Zenith Boar
    Puma Special
    TOBS Sandalwood SC
    TOBS Sandalwood AS Gel
    Proraso Styptic Gel

    Just a quick post on today's shave. Duplicate from yesterday....except was in a big hurry. 12 minutes to shave before having to leave. It was last minute decision to run an errand with the family. Still did my usual face and shower prep, save for stropping the Puma in between. Figured I would just see how it went. Big mistake. Felt the difference and lopped a bump on my chin. Big bleeder. Styptic gel twice. Ugh. Won't ever skip the strop routine ever again. Not unhappy with the shave, still a decent DFS. Kind of proved I can get it done quickly even with a straight now.

    Wanted to thank everyone for the wife's well wishes. She's about the same, just takes a little while for antibiotics and meds to kick in. She got to the doctor before it completely turned into a mess.

    Been following along, just limited time. Awesome reports and always incredible images of cool hardware and software.

    Hope everyone has a great Saturday!

    Thanks Danny, I was planning on cutting the lawn today but since it’s raining the relaxation was able to start early.

    Thanks Jim

    Thanks Clint, I have one more trip scheduled for this coming week. It will be less busy afterwards for a few weeks.

    Glad your wife is better and improving. 12 minutes for a SR shave, you are in MAYhem territory. Glad it was not any worse.

    It's a lazy Saturday here, so time for a straight razor. Today I went with the Russian Mockva. For suds, Haslinger marigold again. I did 3, and skipped the usual extra cleanup. Honestly, in a pinch, I could stop after two passes if I had to. But no hurry today.
