Wonderful pre-Fourth shave. Very nice lather to provide slick cushion for the Merkur 37c to do its thing. I always receive a super close shave with this razor.

A cool weather day for the beginning of summer along with two consecutive days of rain. Hope your BBQ’s are going well with a tremendous amount of deliciousness served. Have a great day gentlemen.

 

Great shave and setup Joe.

Good afternoon gents!

Straight Razor Shave #282
5/8 Dovo Special Rd Pt
JR #386 Silvertip Brush
Stirling 2019 LE Blood on Steel 30 DC Crew SS and AS
Maggard's Alum Block
Dickinson's WH
Whiskers: 31 hrs



It's rainy and cloudy on LI and I decided to cheer myself up with a nice shave. I picked out my best brush, the JR #386, to make a nice lather with this great Stirling scent. It has that cologne scent that just makes me feel good. I chose the Dovo Special because I have not used it in quite awhile. Prior to today's shave, I have only used it 14 times in the past 2 years almost to the day. It is an excellent and pretty razor, but I guess that I have forgotten about it. I will try to use it more often because it was my very first straight razor. Anyway, it took care of my 31 hr whiskers without any problems and there weren't any cuts, etc. The result was a near BBS shave with only two passes
Finished in the usual manner ending with this nice aftershave. Have a great Sat. afternoon guys!

 

Oh why n excellent shave Gary

 

Thank you Joe

 

Super dreary LI shave Joe

 

Thanks Joe! Years ago, if someone told me that shaving can change your outlook, then I would of said that they were crazy.

 

Late shave and shower today.

Edwin Jagger DE89
Astra SP (2)
Yaqi badger brush
Stirling Sharp Dressed Man soap and splash

Tolgo @Glondus shaved with his DE89 yesterday and inspired me to drag mine out today.

Stirling soap was on par this afternoon and is just hard to beat.

The Jagger was great for three smooth passes. I had forgot how great of a shaver the old Jagger was. I love the handle on this one...I think it is called the Barley handle.

Finished the shave off with the matching juice.

I hope everyone is have a wonderful weekend.

Sorry Charlie, Danny @Hembree can't see your response since he's ignoring you. I'll pass it along to him though

 

Terrific Saturday shave, Joseph. Hope your weekend is great.

 

Beautiful shave and picture, Jeff. You picked right back up where you left off.

I hope you are having a great weekend.

 

I'm not going anywhere.
