    Great shave Rick!
    Doesn't matter how it looks, if it shaves well it's a keeper. Some of my ugliest razors are the best razors by far.

    Hi all, good morning on another Wednesday I'm able to keep up here if I don't have 16 hour days. Hopefully today will be just 8 and go home.
    Did another look alike shave, new blade in my Razorock Blackhawk V1 and all the trimmings. Can't get a better 2 pass shave with any other tool in the shed. The face is clean and smooth, the gord is the same!

    Good morning!

    Excellent shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. A bit of warmth from the alum.

    I use alum after every shave, mostly out of habit. I do like the skin tightening effect. I'm a pre-shower shaver so it always gets washed off.

    Have a great day! [​IMG]

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: vintage Schick Plus Platinum
    Razor: Schick J1
    Brush: JR #41 badger
    Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Post: Witch hazel, RazoRock Blue Barbershop aftershave

    Nice shave again with The Fat. How do you soften up a stiff badger knot? Jayaruh reknotted this handle for me with a 2-band knot from Maggards. It's dense and stiff. Doesn't want to splay when face lathering. Do I just have to use it more?

    Nice shave in the end. Enjoy your day!

    Beautiful photo, Jim! Thanks for the commentary earlier on the tobacco scents. I have a sample of WSP Tobacco aftershave on the way.
