    jluc smelling pretty

    I picked up a Mickey Mouse watch at Disney World years back myself. Solar powered. Made the mistake of putting it in the box I keep my other watches in. In the dark too long, killed it.
    I'm so used to wearing a watch that I'll be looking at my phone but check my wrist for the time.

    Gary, excellent choices for a 1st straight. I could be wrong, but I don't think the Dovo Best Class is available. Dovo bought the Bismark name, but if you can get a vintage Bismark, that will certainly do. Since I own a Dovo shavette and 2 Dovo straights, I am partial to Dovos.

    Good afternoon fellas!
    Shavette Shave #98
    Dovo Shavette
    Rockwell 1/2 Blade (5)
    Rockwell Synthetic Brush
    Razorock Classic SS
    Old Spice AS
    I bloomed the soap and used the water as a preshave. Rocky lathered my face quite nicely. I have to say that I finally am enjoying this soap. The almond scent really has picked up for me and the RR lather is wet and slick. Normal amount of passes and touchups, but only got an IBSS. I didn't want to go for BBS because this blade was not sharp enough and I wanted to avoid any irritation. This was also a bloodless shave so I satisfied with this shave. I binned the blade and will replace it with either a Rockwell or Polsilver DE half blade. Finished with 2 applications of Old Spice. Have a great afternoon, guys! 20190823_134051.jpg 20190823_134051.jpg

    While at the flea mall today I was doing the usual hunting for shaving gear and bottles to hold juice and my wife found this one for 3 bucks. It is an old Mennen bottle that will hold up to 10 ounces of glorious Clubman stank once it us cleaned up. 20190823_135705.jpg 20190823_135728.jpg
