March 2021 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion. ALL are Welcome!

Beautiful job Danny!

 

Very nice, Danny!

 

True with this playing in the background.

 

Thanks, Danny! I know, and believe me, I do appreciate her!

 

I know you do. Take care.

 

Thanks, Danny! Will do! He traveled to TN with us! He’s a good little traveler.

 

Thanks Joe and Jeff.

 

Thanks Danny! It takes practice and knowing how to shave the trouble spots! It was more difficult filming a headshave than a faceshave because I had to focus on the camera and the razor to get a better view for you guys. Anyway, I will do one with a regular straight, now that I have the camera angle, placement markers and such sometime in the next few months.

 

Great job and I'm still amazed at head shaving with a straight. Take care.

 

Thanks again Danny!

Koraat Splash 7/8 half hollow for the shave today. I do enjoy the Cologne Russe from B&M, well I enjoy the scent but it is finicky in my water. Something for the watch fans in the picture but for the frag heads the Serge Lutens Musc Koublaï Khän did not make the picture but it sure let everyone around me know.

 

Lovely recap and photo as usual, Barry! I’m hoping that your job situation works out to your satisfaction. All the best to you and yours, my friend!

 

Great shave with your usual high end kit, Keith! Continued good wishes to you and yours!

 

Thanks Danny.
The Hulk is an evergreen.

 

SOTD TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 16, 2021

Thanks to a friend here at TSD, I was able to secure a F. Herder 49 15/16. It is one big honkin’ blade. The weight and heft feels very good in hand, and the bone scales are in good shape. This straight razor will definitely be a keeper. Given the size of the blade, it will take some getting used to. The mug shave was my usual three passer. The shave was smooth and clean, but just a touch too harsh for my liking. I’ll refinish it on the Naniwa 12k and jasper stones today until I get the edge the way I like it. The dome shave featured my little reliable Ronson safety razor which easily held up its end. Two ATG passes put the baby to bed and left me clean, refreshed and velveteen smooth.

RAZOR: F. Herder 49 15/16 (Mug), Ronson Safety Razor (Dome)
BLADE: Schick B-20 Proline Injector
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a scrub with Argan Oil
BRUSH: Alpha Shaving T-400 Tribute with 24mm Hybrid Knot Ferrule
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by a rinse with Humphreys Lilac WH. Finished with Pre de Provence Bergamot & Thyme AS Balm.

 

Thank you Jeff...The job situation is something i can't do nothing about at the moment,but i'll do my upmost best to get something more stable throughout the year. Stay safe,and take care of yourself & your good lady. Yours-Barry.

 

Someone's up and at'em early. Beautiful razor and shave Jeff
