    good day gents.
    fabulous 2 pass shave with the brit rfb.
    lovely tobs tobacco lather.
    touch of twisted thayers and burberry london to finish.
    awesome.
    ***
    the tobs cream punches way above it's price point.
    a touch drying compared to some artisan bases but post care products cover that.
    will always have tobs of some sort in the den.
    have a great day everyone.

    Thanks Joe....I'm going to try a different "route" at North Porcupine tomorrow...North-South. Also to make sure to get more soap on that area.

    Good afternoon.

    Shavette Shave #370
    Parker SRB
    Rockwell 1/2 DE Blade (6)
    Barbury Synthetic Brush
    Fine Accoutrements Platinum SS
    Old Spice AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 30 hrs

    It's time for my Sunday afternoon shave before I head off to thus evening's services.
    In keeping with the double theme, I used my Parker shavette. I am counting the Fine Platinum soap as double because I used up the Italian Citrus and it's still the same brand. I have the Platinum aftershave, but I decided to go with the Old Spice because I prefer it. I really don't get anything out of this Creed Adventus scent from the soap or aftershave.

    I have to say that Fine Accoutrements makes an easy, rich, and creamy lather, but the scent strength is a 1 on a scale of ten. Here is the puck lathered in the mug so you can see the goodness:

    I had enough lather for at least 4 passes.

    My 2 pass shave with minor touchups gave me a nice BBS shave without any drama. I did bin the blade and will decide if I want to go with another Rockwell or some other blade. I have less than a tuck of Rockwell blades, but I have over 90 other ones thanks to Patrick (9nein9) who left the TSD. Three and a half years to use up a 100 blade box of Rockwells. You can see that I don't shave much with my non-straights. Lol!
    Anyway, I had very little alum feedback and followed it with the witch hazel and Old Spice. I am happy with the shave. Now, I am thinking my next 2 shaves will be either using the Mühle R41 or the Gillette Fatboy. Of course, it may be something else. Have a great afternoon.

    Thank you, @Trigger, for the well wishes! I have had many good shaves but was switching so many items that the 30-day focus seemed lost!
    Set up for the week:
    Work Days: Blackland Ti Vector
    Days Off: Schick Type I chrome plated Hydro-magic
    Stirling Sheep
    SynBad knot, but it may change!

    You are welcome Eric. I am just glad you're OK. Remember, you do not have to do a 30 day focus to share your shaves here. 30 day focuses are to improve the quality of your shaves with a troublesome razor, soap, etc. Looking forward to your continued posts with your shaves. Have a great evening!

    DSC_0279-01.jpeg I've been quite busy, travel and so on, but now I had some time to post my shave.

    Nothing special, but very functional! And the end result is very smooth, without irritation or blood.

    I hope all is doing well.
