C. V. H. MK 32, cream was Pen’s Endymion lathered with a Simpson 58, and a little D. R. Harris Pink finished up a BBS shave.
Besides the lovely razor and setup I have to say that’s fine way to repurpose a bottle of St. Germain. Although I imagine the pleasure is more in the arriving at the empty bottle
Hey @Karl G the liqueur bottles make interesting AS containers. They’re 50ml and are therefore TSA compliant, were designed to hold alcohol. They can add a touch of class if you get the right ones. These also take up less square inches on a bathroom shelf.
How could you not grow fond of that blade. What a Weed Chopper❤❤ Hope I can get my hands on one that size some day.
Today's shave with the Feather DX as part of a six day concentration. Three more days of focus and I get to shave with the new Riga razor! Just touched it up on the jasper stone! It's popping' hairs all along the blade! This is what I'm waiting to shave with!
Gelle Freres 15/16 faux frameback I have put a Coticule edge on a few of these older French razors... test #1 was pretty sweet. Enjoy your shave. Tom
Today in my SOTD ... Mondesir 87 I think Kayser Ellison is one of the best steel for straight razors. For sure, my fav !!!
RigaRazor, cream was SMN lathered with a Simpsons 57, and Myrsol Agua Balsamica finished up a BDBS shave.
Another nice Coticule edged French faux frameback... all I think I can make out is “Lurr” The scent of this soap is a great Pacific Northwest/Canadian forest smell. Enjoy your shave. Tom
Unbranded Sheffield ‘Superior Temper’, hard, hard, steel, IColoniali Mango lathered with a M&F Persian Jar, and a dab of IC balm finished up another BDBS shave.
French frameback meets three days of stubble. A little more work than usual but excellent result I tried out my homemade roo and linen strop today (thanks @Steve56 for helping out with the sourcing of materials.) Easier than I expected and I think easier than the paddle I’ve been using for years. I plan on getting used to it slowly.
