    Wonderful shave and post, David!

    Oh yeah! Fat Friday setup, but sometimes Mondays need some help. Great shave, Jim!

    Excellent, Gary!

    Good evening gentlemen!
    Shavette shave #100
    Dovo Shavette
    Polsilver 1/2 DE Blade (2)
    Stirling Boar Brush
    Stirling Bay Rum SS and AS
    I didn't bloom the soap this time, I just wet the tips and achieved the standard, awesome lather I would expect from this soap. Did my 2.5 passes with minor touchups to get a IBBS+ shave. I reopened a tiny weep, but that was it. This was a nice, comfortable, irritation free shave. I now officially have 100 traditional straight razor shaves and 100 shavette shaves that total 200 open blade shaves. I joined 30DC on Dec 21 2018 and had approximately 50 open bladed shaves. You have been with me for the following 150 and I thank you all for your encouragement during this journey. Tomorrow night will have my celebratory steak dinner with ice cream. I will share some of the things that I have learned during this 200 shave journey, tomorrow. Have a pleasant evening guys! 20190826_205308.jpg 20190826_205308.jpg

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Adjustable Arko August!!

    August 26

    Razor - Schick Type M Injector
    Blade - [​IMG]
    Soap - Arko
    Brush - Semogue 1305
    Post - Alum

    Monday is in the books. Done. Gone. Finished it up with another run of the Schick Type M. The Semogue 1305 is getting better as I go. Definitely making better, thicker lather now and it feels great. Definitely a great little boar. I think it will compare quite favorably to the Omega 10060 in performance. Definitely in that size class. Three good passes of lather from the brush for the single edge razor to do its magic and it's a great finish to a long day. Ok. We can move on to Tuesday now. Have a great one!
