    Ended this shave after 1 pass. The razor was cutting great but the soap was burning my face! Bummer. There are a few extra “unique” ingredients in this soap and the fragrance is... kinda awful. I would not recommend this one.

    I’ve enjoyed well, A&E’s Asian Pear and Choco Cubano. I believe the Asian Pear is of a different base than the Choco Cubano and the Tertius; though I do believe the latter two are of the same base.

    Maybe I’ll try this one again in a couple weeks. Could be: there’s another unidentified factor at play that crushed my shave today!

    H&S N075 SS with Lupo aluminum cap/Halo Ti handle/Kai. The Lupo cap and Kai blade combine to add exposure without compromising comfort. I added one shim so that cap and plate clamp more tightly. Spectacular shave. [​IMG]

    Thank you Gary....a couple of cool-ish days ahead. Sandpiper is no Texas Fire, but it's nice.

    It's been a while since I used a Straight Razor, because of extremely long hours of work, 21 days straight work, and just plain tired. So, I picked up one of my trusted old razors, and an equally old brush. I had a very nice 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Three days of growth wiped away. I missed the feeling of the Straight shave, compared to the DE shave with the Gillette Fatboy I've been using, over the past three weeks or so.

    Razor- C-MON, by Carl Monkhouse.
    Brush- C-MON, "A-4", by Carl Monkhouse. Boar Knot. Its been cut down, because originally it was too floppy for me.
    Soap- AOS Kingsman. Bourbon scented. No longer made.
    Aftershave- Vintage Avon Spicy. "One Good Turn" decanter.
