Feeling kinda done with modern razors that don't shave as well as this. Pils and H&S just the first to go. Modifying my routine somewhat, using homemade shave oil with just a very thin cover of 63 or MDC.

I'm battling a flu like illness (no I don't live in an area ravaged by COVID-19!) so a shave today was a welcome and refreshing event. The Ikon X3 was very smooth and efficient. Happy shaves all.

Wonderful shave with the Vector & Feather. Super agile, balanced and nicely efficient as it mows through whiskers with ninja like prowess. No complaints at all with all components this afternoon’s shave. The new Polo scent has the old dna from Polo Blue but, with a slightly more modern twist. Blue, aquatic and fresh. Still very Manly. A great day and shaves to all...​

 

Very nice. Your brush & soap look like they're made for each other.

 

Thank you. @Jayaruh makes a fine brush and I am lucky that he allowed me to adopt this one.

Soap - Stirling Satsuma
Brush - Semogue 1305
Post - Alum

Welcome to the end of a slightly weird and wacky Saturday. It was cold and damp all day today and that, along with the total lack of anything going on in STL right now, combined to create a bit of an odd feeling. Work was busy for about half the day, then just fell off into a pit of nothingness. Grubhub now offers "No-Contact" deliveries, meaning you can specify we are to leave the food at your door, office, whatever, and text you when it's there so you don't come into actual contact with another person during the delivery. I actually like that idea, not only for the time being, but really forever. Faster and easier. My knee was better today so no worries there. Jennifer rode along for the day as well so I did have company, but things are way too quiet overall. Guess that's how it's gonna be for a bit.

The shave was a nice diversion tonight. Another round with the Muhle R41 and Sharp Star. I chose the Stirling Satsuma for that wonderful citrus scent and decided to give the Semogue 1305 a run for its money. I should have loaded it a bit heavier but I did make it through three passes and all was smooth and the finish was BBS. My neck was a bit hot with the alum. That big razor does it's thing and something extra if you don't take the pressure completely off. It was a good finish, though, and a good wrap to the day.

Hope you are all doing ok and here's to a fantastic Sunday - whatever it may turn out to be!
