    Wolfman SS WR1 OC (0.63 mm)
    Gillette 7 o’clock Yellow
    Rubberset #3 with WSP HMW
    B&M Bay Rum
    Captain’s Choice Bay Rum

    It has been too long since I used this stainless steel Wolfman. I was fortunate enough to get this razor before Wolfman became so popular and hard to get. At the time it was about a 1/3 cheaper than an Above the Tie stainless razor. The big 400 loaded and lathered up the B&M Bay Rum with ease. I love the face feel of this brush. It is so big it covers a huge area of my face while lathering. I loaded the Wolfman with a fresh 7 o'clock and went with a 3 pass shave. After touching up my jawline and buffing my lower right neck, I ended up with a drama free BBS shave. Nothing is quite like excess so I went with Krampert's Bay Rum followed by Captain's Choice. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    I agree on the scruff, Jim. A few swipes with the right tools, and it would be history. :) He makes some very informative watch videos, though. He has an "all in" personality like some of the good folks 'round here. If he just knew about this wet shaving thing, I imagine he'd have a couple hundred razors or so...

    You have a really nice trio of Seiko's. You can dress 'em up or down. Very versatile. You probably wouldn't even need a modded SKX007 or SKX009. I'm pretty sure anyway.

    Good strategy, Jim. Everybody has an SKX anyway. In fact, they are so stinkin' common that folks mod them for a variety of different looks. And then you see them in all sorts of styles and colors. Color coordinated accessories are vastly overrated. Some folks are just nuts, I guess. It's a good thing you and I are still normal.

    Oh yeah, almost forgot. These things are so stupid bright at night. It would keep you up all night if you wore one to bed.

    As for #3, he doesn't have to tell me to buy the Central Texas Soaps Week-end Rodeo next month-that is MY baby. Course he's already attempted to enable me to try a Texas competitor-Noble Otter.

    Good morning gentlemen!
    Shavette shave #97
    Dovo Shavette
    Rockwell 1/2 Blade (4)
    Rockwell Synthetic Brush
    Proraso Green SS and AS
    It is Tingling Thursday!
    Rocky did a great job lathering my face with Proraso Green. This soap is simply refreshing with a great tingling sensation. The Rocky blade really did a fine job shearing my 39 hour stubble. My normal 2.5 passes produced a nice very close comfortable shave without any errors or irritation. Applied the Proraso Green aftershave to "ice" the shave. Have a marvelous day, guys! 20190822_083525.jpg 20190822_083525.jpg
