    Thanks Tim! I always believe to go to the deep end of the pool when you are able. Paua is a New Zealand Maori word for abalone. So, it is kind of neat to have a different scale material than bone, acrylic or wood.

    Awesome set up, Keith! Really like the Friodurs I've seen featured in the 30DC, and that brush is beautiful. Have a fantastic weekend, and enjoy your night out :D

    When I was a kid, my mom has some abalone/mother of pearl pieces of jewelry that I found absolutely fascinating--looking at the iridescence was like witnessing magic--I still really love that look. :D

    A drama free Kai Titan Guard blade / Hawk V3 OC shave tonight. I'm becoming a fan for sure. I'm smooth and smell great for bed. Happy shaves all.

    2 or 3 shaves max and you’ll have the big blade mastered.

    Gillette 1947 SS
    Gillette 7 O’clock Black
    Romera Olivewood Synthetic
    Fine Aquamarine
    Shave Soap & Aftershave

    [​IMG]​

    Mixing things up again today. Brought out one of my favorite vintage Gillette razors, the 1947 Super Speed. The Fine Aquamarine soap works great as would be expected for a Fine soap. The scent opens with citrus top notes over a base that does smell aquatic. Three passes and touch ups ended in a drama free BBS shave. The matching aftershave has a stronger hit of citrus over the same base. I really like the scent but like most scents of this type, I don't see it lasting very long through the day. I hope everyone has a fantastic Friday.
