    It could cause me to finally buy it as in 13 years and literally 100's of soaps I've never tried it :scared003:

    Dec 27 SOTE

    Good evening guys!

    Straight Razor Shave #236
    10/8 Max Sprecher 1/2 Hollow
    Catie's Bubbles Synthetic Brush
    Stirling Frankincense and Myrrh SS and AS
    Dickenson's Unscented WH (not pictured)
    Nivea for Men ASB (not pictured)
    Whiskers: 30 hrs

    Like yesterday's shave, I did the same hot water prep and facelathering method. Gave myself a nicely hydrated lather that was quite slick. The Stirling F/M scent is light and clean. However, I can't say it is Stirling's top frags imho. Although it is seasonal scent, it can be used year round. Would I buy it again? No, because there isn't any sillage. Mad Max gave me a great 2 pass shave with very little touch up. I wouod classify it as a BBS -. There weren't any issues with blood or irritation. Did my post shave in the order of wh, asb and the matching aftershave. The aftershave scent is somewhat stronger, but it isn't an exact match to the soap which is fine with me. Tomorrow will be a no shave day, but Max will be returning Tues. Have a great evening guys! 20201227_163132.jpg

    It would be super cool to see you and your sweet Granddaughter do a shaving or cooking video. I remember that she's your kitchen helper too. She could probably wink at MWF and make a fine lather. :) Hopefully it will include a cameo appearance by your Grandson. :)

    Mad Max is a beauty, Joe. I always enjoy seeing it in your posts. It's a perfect match to your Catie's Bubbles brush.

    Have a great evening!

    Proraso SS & AS - Red
    Ever Ready 100 w/synthetic flat top
    Feather AC DX (kamisori style)
    Schick Proline P-30

    Early morning shave, late afternoon post. Fun bowl slinging lather, predictable Proraso slick and thick goodness. 3 passes, easy DFS+ results. No shenanigans. Love the classic Proraso sandalwood barbershop aroma.

    Hope everyone had a great Sunday!

    Thanks Joe! I wanted to get at least 30 shaves in with Mad Max before the year ends. Tuesday's shave will be my 30th with this beautiful razor. I will end with 31 shaves since the beginning of June. (Almost 7 months)
