    Sunday DECember 8

    Another razor that doesn't get enough use is my Asylum XL. This is an excellent razor. Definitely a DECadent shave.

    Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
    Soap - Stirling Mountain Man
    Brush - ThatDarnRob 26mm
    Blade - Feather HI SS (1)
    Razor - Asylum XL
    Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Stirling Mountain Man A/S

    Shave rating 5 of 5

    I've got a lot of razors and some of my razors just don't get enough use - and my Asylum XL is one of those razors. It's really an excellent razor. Paired with a Feather blade, I received a smooth 2 pass (WTG, XTG) BBS shave with no blood letting or irritation. Typical Stirling lather, slick and a little on the wet side, provided excellent cushion for the shave. The ThatDarnRob brush has good backbone and soft tips. The alum was a little vocal on one side of my neck only. Finished up with the Mountain Man A/S.

    Happy DECember and great shaves everyone.

    Great warm tones going on Jason! Love that brush and Aristocrat!

    Nice photo, Jason! You'll finish the soap soon enough. Keep at it. Do you know if the Maol splashes are available in the states?

    Mmmmm, Mountain Man. Nice scent! Also enjoy that Glacial sticker I see on the splash. Good man. Nice shave, Ken!

    Thanks Blair.
    Ya know, I really like this razor but I haven't used it since the summer. Need to work it into my rotation more.
