    A surprisingly fine canned shave this morning(I came back to the Clubman double-play-Shave Cream and A.S.). Were it not for the fact that I had zero facial "wear and tear"(no cuts/Knicks) I could just rubber stamp yesterday's report into today's. I couldn't help but think that I most probably shaved with the same arsenal 40 years ago as I did today's. Anyway...made sure once again to get lots of the cream on the face and neck. I'm sure I could have done a little better traversing the N.E. side of Porcupine Alley-N.W. side too, for that matter. Those are areas at which I perform better with soaps. Cactus Nation looks and feels good(for a canned shave).Clubman A.S. a great finisher for this cream. I do sense a bit different scent in the aftershave than the cream, but not by much. It's still a worldwide barbershop classic. It all began(Clubman)in 1810 with the birth of Edouard Pinaud. Thing is, since most Clubman products say 1810 on the cover, we're led to assume that Monsieur Pinaud created his world famous products inside his baby crib. That's why I've been saying 1830 lately, as it was THEN that the Frenchman got to work. Anyway, for the shave I'll say Out Of This World Excellent*

    Great FH shave, Blair! They truly are amazingly efficient shavers! It’s fortunate you are as skilled a safety razor shaver as you are. I’ve read reports of newbies tearing their faces up on a FH. It’s not a razor that tolerates technique inconsistency! Enjoy your shaves! :cool:

    According to my son, Blair, you can’t lose on any Simmons Hardware model! He’s a true fan! :cool:

    Good morning!

    Fantastic shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

    Space Nog is another PAA Bay Rum blend. I don't get egg nog. What I do get is Bay Rum topped with Citrus. Wonderful!

    Have a great day!

    Awesome, Joseph. I love the Eau Sauvage. Have it in aftershave form and find it an outstanding citrus scent. Great score finding that vintage juice.

    High praise indeed for the software, Dave. The brush has the same name- was it sold through the soap company? vice versa?

    The razor/holder combo is stunning, Joe. Very cool. You don't see the Ginger's Garden stuff much anymore. When I joined TSD in late 2016, they used to raffle off a GG gift certificate to a newbie. Very generous.
    Hope the drive to work wasn't too bad in the snow.

    Love the rock garden shot, Clint. That Yates is getting quite a run. Congrats again. The Fresh Vetiver has really grown on me, a very nice scent.
    Hope your day isn't too long.
