January 13

Razor - Fatip Piccolo
Blade - (3)
Soap - Stirling Orange Chill
Brush - Stirling Two Band Synthetic
Post - Alum

It's Menthol Monday! How about some Stirling Orange Chill to cool things off, eh? The snow has started to melt away so we'll just add some menthol to the mix to keep things cool. I used the Stirling synthetic brush to make that fine lather and gave the Fatip and Voskhod its third day. I'm a bit disappointed to say this was not the smoothest of shaves. The blade seems to be a bit dull, which is very strange for a Voskhod on 3. I believe the last blade out of this tuck was a dud, so I suspect the whole tuck may be compromised. No worries. I have over a thousand in reserve. It happens very occasionally with this and any blade.

Three passes did bring the baby in the house and that creeping cold of the Orange Chill soap was marvelous. The scent reminds me more of orange peels than orange juice and it's a fine scent. No worries at all!

Hope your Monday was a success and at least it's done for the week. Happy Tuesday tomorrow!

I love this tribute scent that PAA made.

 

That lather looks like pure lard. LOL No way can anyone accuse this of not protecting.

Had to do a quick shave today. Doesn't mean it has to be bad...

 

That's pretty much the nature of CK-6. I will note, however, to explore it's maximum potential, I would push the water much further. CK-6 will perform beautifully in the spackling phase, but it's a whole new realm when you literally try to drown it.

 

cool arko shave D..
