    I with you, like the X2 strength Bay Rum Cologne as well but my favorite from Ogallala is the Bay Rum W lime & peppercorns. Keep a travel sprayer of the latter in my truck for those last minute ventures around town.

    Nice shave bowl as well and wonderful news regarding the Doc.

    July 4th SOTD

    A quick and comfortable shave late this morning. The Clubman barber shave cream works swimmingly for a rapid brushless shave cream. I use it every once in a while but often especially use it as an adjunct post-shave lotion. I went all the way up to 7.5 on the 3rd pass today with the Emperor. Have a wonderful July 4th today everyone. Happy Birthday America!!

    Not to be outdone by its newest sibling this Napoleon said, “Not so fast.” So much for trying to determine my top three razors - today’s shave was one for the ages - truly outstanding in every way. :happy036:

    Hot water preparation
    T&H Ultimate Comfort PSO
    Jeff's Lavender Mystic Water Soap
    Savile Row 3824
    John & Wm Ragg Napoleon 11/16

    Newly acquired, restored and honed. Maiden shave. I had a very nice 2 pass shave, that easily mowed down 3 days of growth, to leave a BBS face. The covered tangs are fun razors to use. Light, and sharp.


    Razor- Hibbard, Spencer, Bartlett & Co. Germany.
    Brush- B400 By Tom( @twhite ). WD Boar knot.
    Soap- RazoRock XXX
    Aftershave- Vintage Shulton Old Spice. Ships Flask Decanter.

    Today's shave after three days' growth:
    Shower prep
    Merkur 34G with a Derby Extra
    Tabac soap, bowl lathered with a La Maison du Barbier (Plisson) synthetic brush
    Cold water rinse, no aftershaves or balms today
    The Merkur 34 is an awesome razor, even if it is zamac.
