The second razor I recently returned to use after a serious refresh. Nice to have it back in action. Hot water preparation AOS Lavender PSO Barristers Reserve Lavender T&H Wellington Super Badger Mappin & Webb 11/16 AOS Lavender After Shave Balm Happy shaving - Karl
CVH MK 33, soap was MdC original lavender lathered with a Rooney 1/3 Silvertip, and a splash of SMN lavender AS was the perfect compliment. I am BDBS and smellin’ fine!
Kinfolks Blue Steel Special Full stropping with the 50/100/200/horsehide progression. Lubricated with some new-to-me vintage Old Spice soap (almost NOS). Lather took and held a lot of water, smooth sailing today.
Proof that the repellent works!!! I do appreciate B&M throwing stuff like this out there... just might have to save it for Halloween only
Saturday Straights' Shave Cold Water Rinse GZD Berber Stick Jayaruh #2 Wilbert "Acme" 5/8 CWR Pinaud Clubman My prep was just a cold water rinse. The GZD Berber Stick Shave Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #2 Badger Brush. I did two passes and a cleanup with the Wilbert "Acme" 5/8 razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Pinaud Clubman After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
Shave #49 on the Filly 14 Sub Cero edge longevity test, soap was the fresh-smelling MdC vetyver lathered with a Simpsons 59. A splash of SMN lavanda AS topped of a 10/10 shave. The edge is still performing quite well for almost 50 shaves with only a strop for maintenance.
Puma Salters hard soap Omega Evo This old Puma has seen a lot of honest use and is still a pleasure to use. Nice shave this morning. Have a good one.
Saturday late afternoon shave. Finally found a time window in the den, jumped straight through it. Portland Razor Company “the Gustave”, 1/4 grind carbon steel, custom build in 7/8, wood scales. New to me, gave it the full strop progression and went to the den. Sharp, smooth, but a big boy, not as nimble as a more standard grind in my normal selection of 5/8 and 6/8 full hollows. Great for all the wide open spaces below the jaw.

Hoje ao contrário do habitual fiz a barba de manha. Este barbear simboliza o optimismo no domingo, nas férias que se aproximam e no proximo ano. Tive muito prazer neste barbear. A espuma do MR ficou bastante boa, mas notou-se bem a diferença entre a primeira passagem onde tinha aplicado o Pré MR e a segunda onde foi só o creme a fazer as despesas. O deslize sendo aceitável não é confortável para a navalha. Mas com o Pré ficou impecável. Viva Portugal E que pena não existir um construtor de navalhas portuguesas.
