AoS Rose Absolute~~Zenith Boar~~Gillette #44 RFB/Spoiler~~Royall Lyme

Mos def® knocking this out this week.
The Zenith has broken in nicely and has a nice face-feel with some good backbone.
The RFB was outstanding---especially in combination with a Gillette Spoiler.
Lots o' lymey-goodness with the vintage Royall stank.​

This soap gets really soft and mushy near the end. It is very easy to pick up a lot of product. Only a few shaves left now.

I apologize for the late post. Yesterday was a very long day. I got up early, made some repairs on the bay window and painted the new repairs. Then I decided to pressure wash the lawn furniture and back patio. After that I was in need of nice shower and shave. This was the final round for the MdC. I had a really good run with the soap and have two more jars of MdC in different scents that will come up at some point. Just finishing up some remote work. I will post today's shave later on this morning. ​

Congrats, Clint!

Thank you Jason. I made a concentrated effort to buy triple milled soaps over the last several years. I afraid it is slowing me down on finishing them up.

Well done, Clint.

SV Felce Aromatica
Shave Soap & After Shave



Happy Monday Everyone. I am off on the next 3017 adventure with the SV Felce Aromatica. I have used this soap quite a bit in the past and have approximately 100 grams left. However, I anticipate finishing this one up will take time. The shave this morning was everything I remembered about the soap. Given the intoxicating scent and performance of the soap, this will not be a burden in the least. For those that think that non tallow soaps are second tier, they really should try SV soaps. I would rank them with any soap I have tried. I hope everyone has a great day. ​

Thank you Joseph.

good morning gents.
trying to finish another soap up.
this time its a bowl of wilkinson/derby stick mix,maybe some others in there
fabulous lather.
i want the bowl for the kilo of Vito's ,well a portion of it.
lovelty 2 passer with the new sc/kcg combo.
thayers and polo blue to finish
awesome
have a fine day everyone.

Agree 100%. Great base, amazing scent. Those who rail against the price but will pay half for a croap? Yeesh.
I’ll be a few days behind you, Clint.

Glad to see you back at it, Gary.

Day 19
One, maybe two days left. The shave itself? A MonoBilt with a Nacet is a great combo.

Clint, congrats on knocking out the MdC!

Thank you Charlie.

Blackland Tradere

Rubberset 400 #3
SV Felce Aromatica
Shave Soap & After Shave



I decided to break on the Blackland Tradere for a few days. I got into wet shaving as a hobby too late to get an original Tradere so I am fortunate to have Blackland's version. Felce Aromatica is so easy to lather. I do hate this tin though. It has a then coating on raw aluminum that flakes off around the edges getting into the soap. The flaking was not a big deal when I used the soap occasionally. However, I can already tell this is going to get on my last good nerve before finishing the soap. I anticipate this soap getting moved to another container and using the tin for pictures only. I hope everyone has a great day. ​

Just finished, Gillette Fusion Fusion Hydra Gel and Bat Pop Lime
