Saturday, September 9 Eufros Tobacco~~Rubberset 400/3~~RazoRock Game Changer OC .84/Wilkinson Chromium The more I use this soap, the HARDER it is becoming. That's unusual. Still, the Omega boar set in the Rubberset, really created some gorgeous goo. There's a Game Changer thread running, so I took mine for a spin. Great tool. One minor complaint users have, is that the posts are too short. Yes, they are, but I never have an issue setting the blade. Not pictured is some Meehan Bay Rhum I applied after the Eufros ASB.
These are the candidates for the Mike's 3017 Challenge. I am leaning towards the Vetiver, as it is the oldest of the trio.
Sunday, September 10 Eufros Tobacco~~Semogue SOC Taj Resin Boar~~Feather AS-D2/Wilkinson Chromium~~Acqua di Parma We are getting down to the Nitty-Gritty...and I don't mean this: There are so many granules, I feel like I am shaving with an exfoliating soap. Trying yet another boar, this SOC may be "the one". Still a little scritchy, but the bristles have not been chemically treated. More thoughts on this brush as I continue to use it.
I’m not a big fan of boar brushes in general, but that is the one I kept in my den. For me, it was the best out there. As you know, it takes a while to break boar brushes in, and the scritch went away once I had used it enough.
Septmeber 10, 2023 Rocnel Ti/SS Hybrid Gillette Nacet BSB-2 Ethos Bay Rum Shave Soap PAA Atomic Bay Rum Early morning shave with a late afternoon post. I have been running errands all morning and I am happy to be finished. Everything continues to work well together and the soap continues to sink. I can’t ask for more. I hope everyone has a great afternoon.
Joseph, get yourself over to yourshaving.com and have a look at his Zenith offerings. Thank me later.
Septmeber 11, 2023 Blackland Sabre Lvl 1 Gem PTFE Zenith B2 Ethos Bay Rum Shave Soap PAA Atomic Bay Rum Monday Again. Why are weekends so short. A wonderful shave to start the day. For those that don’t like Bay Rum that smells of too much clove, you should consider getting a sample of the PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum. I detect little to no clove at all. Please remember those impacted by the tragic events of 9-11

Day 35-37 The days have gotten away from me. I took a vacation day from work on Friday to help plan a large community event with my Rotary Club that lasted all weekend. I did shave most days, and they were solid shaves, once I changed out the blade. On to another SE tomorrow.
You have a much tougher choice than I do. I only have one- Orange, Cedar and Black Pepper. There is a lot of product left.
