Day Fourteen.
The ring is ever-expanding.
The Zenith is ever-softening.
The shave was ever-pleasing.
The stank was ever-stanky.
Late, but great shave.​

Day 23
The focus continues to roll along. I’ve realized that of my 4 Omega boars, this one is my favourite. Not even many dark hairs, @Primotenore .

Not many at all.

Day Fifteen.
After this shave, I am transferring the soap to my Aesop SS Bowl.
Pretty good shave with a blade that was past its prime.
Outstanding Civet-Stank.

I am a day late on posting since I got caught up in putting out work fires. I decided to change the Mondial boar with the Shaverite 210. I will keep this setup for my regular Tuesday & Thursday lineup. ​

Back on track for posting today. It feels like it should be Friday already when it's only Wednesday. I am making very good progress on the MdC with my usage rate averaging 2 grams per day. The Speick after shave is very close to being done and dusted so I can move back to Agua Balsamica. ​

AoS Lavender~~Zenith B507~~Cooper MonoBilt/Gillette Platinum~~Creed Aventus
Day Sixteen.
As you can see, the plastic tub is gone and the remainder resides firmly packed at the bottom of my Aesop SS bowl.
Lathering is a snap from this vessel and the B507 did not disappoint.
It should be known that the Cooper should be classified as an "aggressive" razor.
Mucho blade feel demands a light touch at the correct angle.
Aventus for the finish garnered an unsolicited SWMBOSOA. (all rights reserved)

If the choices are ‘aggressive’ or ‘not aggressive’, then sure, yes. I find it quite easy to shave with, fwiw. Way less attention necessary than say a Floating Head.

Day 25
I think I’m getting close to at least a good guess as to the number of shaves left. 12-15 ish…

Excellent choice in after shave . You’ll have the soap knocked out soon.

Happy Friday Everyone!!! This work week is just about over. I will likely have to work over the weekend but that should not be too bad. The MdC continues to go down at roughly 2 grams a day. If that usage rate continues then this one should be done and dusted within 50-55 shaves. Have a great day guys. ​

I hope you don’t have to work all weekend, Clint. Great work on the soap as well.
As always, I am mesmerized by that stunning Paladin beehive. The combination of the pour and the shape is exceptional.
