Good afternoon.

Straight Razor Shave #430
5/8 CMon
Heritage Collection Replica CMon Super High Density Badger Brush
Stirling Frankincense and Myrrh SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Beard Growth: 24 hrs



Excellent 2 pass shave with this super sharp razor. The shave was so smooth that there wasn't any alum feedback. Splashed on the matching aftershave to end this session. Take care

 

Thank you Herm

 

The colors just pop. Excellent shave Danny.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Ok, ok…how many more shaves do you estimates with the F & M? Another great shave

 

Thanks Joe. I am bad at guessing but it could be 30 to 50 shaves and that's why I am figuring the end of Feb/ beginning of March. I will probably use the soap for headshaves too so you guys don't get bored with my setup.

 

I figure I have about 20 shaves left with the Prairie Song

 

awesome shaves and pics gents.

 

awesome shave and pic Joe.

 

Thanks Gary. I should've asked the seller what he used to hone my 2 CMon razors because they are wicked sharp.

 

Took a trip to the past with this shave tonight.
Slickness is outstanding. Granted I love my Artisan soaps like sterling and PAA but nothing beats this. We have hard water here on base but even then it doesn’t affect the performance of this soap much. However the lathers I get from the tap water back home with this soap is heavenly.

Pleased with my Throwback Thursday shave this morning. One pass. Zero Cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots. Gillette Foamy can go with just about any aftershave. Mighta done better on the cheeks/sideburns but it was good enough. No negative issues anywhere else. Doc Sebastian(Paul)has a great aftershave going, I'll tell you that right now(oh, I just DID). His pour spout is a little too wide, but I'm learning to be careful so as not to have Niagra Falls in my sink. Outta This World Excellent.

 

awesome shave Paul.
