  2. I also know you do also Dave, seen one of your videos on that razor you had recently. I like breaking in a new Gem SS PTFE blade with my lather catchers to take full advantage of that great blade also.

    Have some great shaves!

  4. And so, I’ll leave you with a poem written in honour of Rabbie.


    The essential parts are three,
    If you want a dram that’s rich and smoky.



    One is an element that flows to the sea,
    Another grows on stems and starts with ‘B’.



    But if you want to taste delicious fog,
    You need to lift it out the bog.



    With spades in hand and boots on feet,
    We go digging for Islay peat.



    Until next time, Friend.

    Interesting shave. Felt a little more aggressive than it should have and a little rougher. Will have to experiment a little more with blade selection maybe..

  17. WEDNESDAY'S SHAVE

    [​IMG]

    Bath Soap - The Grandpa Soap Company "Pine Tar"
    [​IMG]
    Razor - Plisson-Joris "Odyssey"
    Blade - [​IMG] *2nd Shave
    Shave Brush - Everyman Jack Synthetic
    Shave Cream - Bijan for men
    Shaving Soap - KaliFlower Organics "Pine Tar"
    Lather Bowl by Royal Shave
    Razor/Brush Stand by Royal Shave
    Lather Bowl by Freida of the Etsy shop ASfreidaturns
    Aftershave - Thayers Witch Hazel "Unscented" *with added menthol
    Post-Shave Balm - Bijan for men
    Deodorant - Bijan for men
    Fragrance - Bijan for men

    I'm going to use the Plisson/Joris "Odyssey" razor back-to-back days. The scents were already pre-determined, but it just happened that the same razor would get used. I like it when I get to gain more skill with a razor that I don't use that much. It's a gorgeous razor.
