  8. Ooh. Quite a different razor to the 34c. Much more enthusiastic on the shave and a fantastic vintage razor built for long life and heavy use. Whilst a similar heft and feel to the 34c, it is a vastly different beast to your popular.
    I think you will love it but i try not to use the sharpest blades in mine when i do use it!
  9. that is a pedigree.many folks love that one..:)

  10. E795C80A-7888-49DF-8E72-CDEA1865F2CE.jpeg Well in the world of “morning scents” there is nothing that quite equals the arrival of a new day like the smell of a fresh pot of coffee brewing. It means I woke up on the right side of the grass! So when I was reading the description of CBL Breakfast Blend I knew it was going to be a winner for me! It so very much is!

    I recently picked A&E Cafe au Lait with the matching AS and love the combo. Besides slapping on a shot of expresso (thanks Chris for the suggestion) I was a bit stumped for an AS match. Trolling around one of my favourite venders I spotted an AS that would work Declaration Grooming Scrumtrulescent which is a wonderful blend of coffee and chocolate! Man, they aren’t kidding what an incredible scent! Now I have to track that soap down. But I digress....

    What an incredible soap and AS combo! CBL soaps are fantastic and this is no different, great slickness and lather with a fresh coffee forward scent. The AS is a fantastic topper. Got through a wonderful two pass shave and back on the road we go. Hours later, sipping my coffee in the car and that wonderful coffee and chocolate scent still lingers.

    Thanks Chris for making another winner and sharing it with all of us!

  12. Weds OCtober 16

    Birthday shave today, using 2 of my Gillette birthday F4 razors, a Fatboy and a Toggle. First pass was with the Fatboy set at 7 and I probably could have done 8 or 9. Second pass with the Toggle was set at 3.

    Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
    Soap - MWF (it's Weds)
    Brush - Paladin Vesuvius
    Blade - Gillette Platinum (2)
    Razor - Gillette 195 Adjustable (Fatboy) F4, Gillette Toggle F4
    Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Stirling Ramblin Man A/S, Stirling Ramblin Man EdT

    Shave rating 5 of 5

    First pass with the Fatboy at 7 was WTG and was DFS+. I could have increased the setting as this pass was very smooth with almost no blade feel. The second pass with the Toggle on 3 was XTG and again was a very smooth pass with no blade feel and also was an easy BBS. Both razors are very smooth shaving razors. The MWF lathered well and provided excellent lubrication and cushion for the shave. I had no nicks or anything close to a weeper but the alum barked a little on my neck area. I finished off with the Ramblin Man duo of A/S and EdT.

    Overall, a great shave. Tomorrow I'm back to my OC focus this month with a few more French and English razors that will be the razors for my next few shaves this week.

    Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.
