    STS Shave # 412

    Awesome shave this morning. The Atomic Rocket whipped up a nice some lather. The Martens blade easily mowed down the stubble in it’s path.

    We have a beautiful day to do some yard work, watch my son’s soccer game and have dinner with some friend. Enjoy your Saturday gentlemen.

    SOTD SATURDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 7, 2020

    This morning I woke up to a warm, sunny day for a change! My C-Mon Special 11/16 is just a fantastic razor. A full hollow that really belts out the buttering toast song during my shaves, and this morning was no different. Despite an initial minor nick to the top of my left ear, the three pass (WTG, ATG, XTG) that followed resulted in one of those mug shaves that one keeps touching over the course of the day. It was just an amazingly velveteen result. My dome shave was every bit as good. The Valet Auto Strop Model VC4, the only safety bar model, is by far the favorite of my five Auto Strops. It represents the culmination of 42 years of incremental improvements by Gaisman to his original model, and always delivers an awesome shave. After stropping the Feather FAS-10 blade, the two pass (ATG, ATG) dome shave was every bit as close and comfortable as the preceding mug shave. I feel refreshed, clean and as my UK Celtic friend, Billy, at TSD is wont to say, “dolphin smooth”.

    RAZOR: C-Mon Special 11/16 (Mug), Valet Auto Strop Model VC4 (Dome)
    BLADE: Feather FAS-10 (Dome)
    PREP: Cold water rinse followed by an Argan Oil scrub
    BRUSH: Alpha Shaving T-400 Tribute w/ Hybrid Knot Ferrule
    SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
    POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Humphreys Lilac WH. Finished with Lucky Tiger Aspen AS Splash.

    After entering everything in Shave Buddy I was most shocked at the number of aftershaves I had accumulated. I already knew about my other disorders.
