    06/22/2019 – Focus Shave #11 for June

    RazoRock 400 Noir Plissoft Synthetic Shaving Brush
    Timeless Lather Bowl Scuttle
    Fine Accoutrements – Snake Bite
    Astra SP
    Gillette I3 1963 Slim
    Univinlions (Kai Clone) with Feather Pro Blade
    Nivea Post Balm

    It has been a busy and hot day at the farm. We fixed some leaks on the tractor shed roof and cleared off a spot for the gazebo.

    I finished up a nice shave and shower about an hour ago. I definitely needed both.

    The Slim gave an excellent shave except for a small weeper on the neck. Alum was just a little warm. I am still back and forth with which one shaves better the Fat Boy or the Slim? :signs002:

    The Univinlions completed two passes on the cheeks. The pain stick is hard to beat for the price. Love the Snake Bite.

    Short, sweet and I hope y'all have a great day.

    Nice leisurely Saturday evening shave, with a beer & a record on the turntable

    WP_20190622_18_44_36_Pro.jpg

    Rocket as always
    German Wilkinson Sword (3 and really hitting the sweet spot for that blade)
    Omega Boar
    Tabac stick - every time I shave with this I wonder why I ever use different soaps. Oh, right, because I have 11 sticks of Arko to get through before I die.
    3.5 pass shave!! my face hasn't been this smooth since grade school
    alum block - not even a tickle
    Noble Otter Orbit - seriously impressed with this one. The face healing ingredients rival my favourite Chatillon Lux aftershaves. The scent is simply perfect.

    Have a great weekend everybody

    Forgot to add I ended up with about 3x as much lather as I needed - a little Tabac goes a long way

    Good night as a followup to a good day - bought some nice shirts on drillout sale, hit up the outdoor farmer's market, have a prospective buyer on my old car. Life is good.

    I love those kinds of days. Farmers markets are fun places . Usually good food and lots to see.
