Day 58 Gillette New Improved Bostonian w PermaSharp APShave 2 Bed / MrEE Aluminum Asylum Colonia Thayers Myrsol Lemon I didn’t shave over the weekend, I winterized the RV and the lake spot. The NI easily took care of the 72 hours worth early this morning. I Did nick my neck, which is very rare these days.
October 10, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather PAA Shaverite 210 with Mix Knot WSP Barbershop SV Felce Aromatica Happy Tuesday Everyone. I didn’t shave yesterday so I really needed a shave the morning. Everything played well together providing a smooth shave. Take care and have a great day.
Thank you, Charlie . I must admit, I’m not usually one for cases, but I think the Elevator case is pretty cool too.
Tuesday, October 10 Crabtree & Evelyn Mysore Sandalwood~~Simpson Tulip 3~~UK Gillette Red Tip/Wilkinson Chromium The C&E is the old formulation. Quite nice, but needed some bloom-time. Rock hard and difficult to load. The SS from England is slightly more blade-forward than its American cousin. Decent shave.
Day 59 New Improved ‘Bostonian’ w PermaSharp Omega Evo/ Burl&Resin Asylum Colonia combo Thayers The New Improved is a nice shaver. I prefer a few that came right after it, but it does the job. I love the art deco styling too. Hey… Is that the tub bottom I see? Have a great night all.
Sunday I finally killed off that stick. 77 shaves in all. Moved right along to this tube of Dettol Fresh cream. Not great, but pretty good stuff. The main thing going for it is that I can buy it locally here in Indy. To keep things moving along at a good clip, I'll be using this newish Turkish boarasaurus for the duration. I've been puting off breaking it in. Time to get on it.
October 11, 2023 Tatara Masamune OC Feather Tatara/Semogue Boar WSP Barbershop SV Felce Aromatica Happy Wednesday. At least I think so. The last few returns are always the worst. I will be happy when this tax season is over. I am really making rapid progress with this soap. I have used over 23 grams of soap thus far. At this rate I will be done mid November or so. The SV splash is just about done and dusted. Take care and have a great day everyone.
Wednesday, October 11 AoS Oud~~Simpson 57 "The Douglas"~~1941 Gillette Ranger Tech/Wilkinson Chromium~~Rasasi Dhanal Oudh Naswah Oh, so oudiliscious was this lather. The 57 was an LE and while I wish it were a 59, I do enjoy using it. The Ranger Tech never fails to satisfy. So very perty (sic).
Day 60 Gillette NI 'Bostonian' w PermaSharp Oumo Boar/Rubberset 400 #3 Asylum Colonia Thayers Jeeves Tobacco Bay Leaf 60 days? Only seems like 110. Not really, this is a quality product, but I know I'm probably at least 20 shaves from finishing. The NI did very well...lots of OCs to get through, though.
October 12, 2023 Blackland Tradere OC Gillette Nacet Simpson CH2 Synthetic WSP Barbershop SV Felce Aromatica Happy Thursday. What a morning already. I received a wake up call from the assisted living home informing me that Mom had fallen. She appears to be fine but I am waiting on an updated report. At that point I will evaluate taking her to the doctor. Given the drama I felt I was lucky to only get one small weeper. Take care and have a great day everyone.
