    I have decided to rid my den of almost 50% of its overwhelming contents.
    The liberating feeling is outstanding.

    I am indeed moving along high-quality gear, but knowing that I can never use it all and
    that my son doesn't share my interest, there's no logical reason to have so much.
    Eventually, I am going to just keep triple-milled soaps and my favorite scents.
    Razor and brush acquisition is coming to a stand-still. I have an order for a Wolfman,
    but as I indicated in a response a few days ago, it's unlikely I'll be following through.
    Is Primo on a "NB"? No, Primo is just "getting real".
    Today's shave features one of my "must keep" products, Art of Shaving Sandalwood.
    The soap is the long-discontinued tallow version, manufactured by Valobra.
    The ASG/ASB are also the original formulas.
    Amazing scent; amazing lather; amazing slickness.
    The Boker, with its @gssixgun edge, cleaned off the 24 hour stubble with ease.
    The post shave products leave the skin wonderfully hydrated and nourished.
    It's a great day.

    Shavette Shave #129
    Parker SRB
    Rockwell 1/2 DE (3)
    Stirling Boar Brush
    Razorock Classic Soap
    Old Spice AS
    Nivea ASB
    Decided to bloom this soap so that I can get a preshave. The RR Classic soap really is easy to lather and the marzipan scent is nice. This is my 3rd shave with the Parker Shavette and it really is a good shaver. I have it dialed in so that it really is easy to use. With 41 hr whiskers to mow, 2 passes with minor touchups produced an IBBS++ shave. Applied the Old Spice and then the Nivea ASB to finish this shave. Have a great day, guys! 20200127_231201.jpg 20200127_231201.jpg

    Back to the Occam’s, this time with the partially scalloped ‘middle’ plate. Whipped up a really nice lather. This is a good soap. The brush may look like mainly a badger, but there is obviously lots of boar in there too as it continues to be scritchy. It has softened a bit, and is quite a densely packed knot. Dropped another hair as well, but produced a nice lather. I thought this middle plate the least smooth of the 3 on the first few go arounds, but it was very smooth today. I didn’t go truly ATG on my neck, though. As such, I am quite smooth everywhere besides my lower neck.
    Finished with the Mountain Rain to keep the Jeeves January going.
    Have a great day all!

    Very nice, Joe. Sounds like you’ve got that Shavette dialed in already.

    That will be a quality den clearing, no doubt. That tallow AoS sounds fantastic as well, Joseph.
