    Great post storm shave Clint. That orange handle just popped in the picture. Thankful you suffered no damage.

    That brush is so purdy. I have 25.6 ounces of Brut I would be willing to trade even. :)

    Yes, I agree. I can't really recreate much of what he is doing as he uses a lot of metal and stone, but I do find a lot of his stuff to be very original and unique in a good way.

    Friday's Shave
    #OCtober


    GEM Micromatic
    GEM S/S PTFE (1)
    CSB Faux Horn Badger
    FatBac
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Alt-Innsbruck Aftershave

    I forget which member here first used the frankensoap, FatBac combo, but I decided to give it a go today. Result = magnificent lather! I just lightly rubbed the Tabac shave soap onto my face and then fully loaded my brush with MWF. After slowly adding a lot of water during the face lather, I ended up with a super slick, cushioned and stable lather that resembled Greek yogurt.

    3 passes with the GEM Micromatic and a fresh PTFE blade this morning provided an uber comfortable and efficient shave that resulted in the baby being quietly put to bed. Alt-Innsbruck has quickly become one of my favorites as well.
    I think I may try combining my other shave sticks each time I use Da Fat and see what type of lather is created.

    I'm good thanks....had my final P.T. (balance)this morning, but the babe....I mean THERAPIST...invited me back in a couple months if I felt the need. Meanwhile I will incorporate some of the routines during gym visits. We have COVID cases on the rise here, too, so I hope they don't shut down the gym and barbershop(I have a haircut on Nov. 14-THEN they can shut down the b-shop lol). I still can't get to the Senior Center and library(although we now can go in to the library by appointment and only the first floor. Otherwise, things are OK here. :).
