    Awesome Arko Shave Joe. Southern contractors are notorious for rescheduling work and never showing up on time.

    Thank you Joe. Do you have some proof of your assessment or just trying to stir the pot?

    The Royall Lyme is an absolute cut above any of the other lime aftershaves I have tried. Wonderful scent with good staying power...

    Beautiful as always Gary. What does Court Hairdresser smell like? Talc (powdered wig), barbershop and/or sweet floral I'd assume, but that's a new one on me as far as scent descriptions...

    I have friends that live in North Carolina and Florida that have told me so. Yes, it's hearsay, but my sources are sincere.

    Good afternoon.

    Straight Razor Shave #514
    W. F Engel Special (Face)
    Schick I-1 Injector (Dome)
    Personna Injector Blade (8)
    Henbree/Maggard Timberwolf Brush
    Cella SS
    Fine Accoutrements Platinum AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Modessa Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 23.5 hrs
    Dome Turf: 3 days

    20231219_153640.jpg

    Today, I was due for a headshave so I decided to use my Schick Injector to shave upstairs and my W F Engel straight for the face and neck. The last time I used this straight was awhile ago and I was ok with the shave the last time I used it, but I refreshed it on my pasted strop after that shave and haven't checked it out since. Well, I was surprised because this razor was sharp and I had the best shave ever using it. I only needed 2 passes, but did a third for a BBS result that would almost pass the cotton ball test.
    The mild Schick I-1 Injector Razor took down my dome turf without any problems for a dolphin smooth result. I didn't get any cuts, nicks or weeps for the entire session.
    By the way, I decided to load the brush from the tub to lather my dome and face so there aren't any lather pics.

    The alum was very silent all around. Witch hazel and then the Fine Accoutrements Platinum aftershave were splashed on the dome, face and neck. There wasn't any alcohol burn. I would call this an epic shave.
    Take care.
