    Thanks, Gary. I was still getting whiffs of the Hemingway last night at 10pm. Great scent.

    May 22nd
    Razor: Timeless Bronze OC
    Blade: Gillette Nacet(3)
    Brush: Zenith boar
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: Williams Mug Soap
    PAA Galactic witch hazel
    PAA Star Jelly unscented
    AS: Fine American Blend

    Williams Wednesday!

    Good morning!

    My last shave with the Bronze OC was what I've come to expect from my shaves. I decided to return to it today hoping for a repeat performance before moving on to another razor in my month of OC razors. Three passes for near BBS. Mostly silent alum except for a whisper in the left hollow of my neck. Terrific shave! If someone were to ask what I'm doing differently now as opposed to my first couple of shaves with it, which weren't bad just warmer than usual alum, I couldn't answer that. Just a few repeated uses to get comfortable with it is what it took to get dialed in.

    Have a great day![​IMG]

    Thanks, Clint. Yes, I'm a fan. Just commenting on the scent strength vs the previous day's Valobra.

    Feather
    DK7 with Druida Manchurian
    Mike’s Orange, Cedarwood & Black Pepper
    Fine Italian Citrus

    A wonderful shave to start Hump Day Wednesday. I really enjoy the scent of Mike's Orange Cedarwood & Black Pepper. The citrus is there in the forefront but the other scents seem to round everything out. Mike's is just a straight forward shave soap that is a classic for reason. I went with a traditional 3 pass shave this morning. With touch ups I easily caught the baby. Even though the Tatara Safety Bar is a somewhat mild razor, it has proven to be very efficient. I don't have many DE razors that get my lower right neck smooth this easily. A splash of Fine Italian Citrus and I am off to the Post Office. I have a package from the UK that I need to pick up. :happy093: I will post pictures later from the office. I hope everyone has a great Wednesday.

    It was a quick but very nice 2 pass shave. Cold water splash to finish.

    Enjoy your day.

    Great collection and they look awesome. You have sparked the need in me to get my gear more organized. I have some containers on the way for soap so that is where I will start. Take care!

    Patiently waiting! :) Great shave and picture Clint. The Tatara looks great in any shot. I think it would even make a mud hole look great but please don't try it. :happy088:

    Thanks, Danny.
    I have two shelves in my closet that I keep soaps, aftershaves and brushes. They are pretty well organized and arranged in such a way I don't have to do too much digging.
