fine start to the week gents.

Thanks Joe. I will admit when I am wrong.

Thanks Joe. Hopefully, you will bring out your C-Mon soon.

Thanks Gary.

27 and 28 MAY 2028

Same again with the Lady Eversharp on both days, 3rd use of this razor

Getting used to this now. With nice slick lather it is easy to have the flat cap in contact with the flats and get close, even ATG around the cheeks and sideburns. The hills & hollows are more fun.
I must say the SE blade seems to be smoothing out on Day 3

Very nice result all over, DFS all over and some BBS with no damage. Kind of cool

Might become a SE convert in due course!

Have a great Tuesday and enjoy your shaves

Thanks Joe, pink and all, but it works well

Thank you Joe.

May 28 Headshave

Good morning.

Gillette Heritage
Gillette Wilkinson Sword DE Blade (fresh)
Hembree/ Maggard Timberwolf Brush
Van der Hagen Select SS
Gentlemen's Nod Zaharoff AS
Stirling Alum Block
Personal Care Witch Hazel
Dome Turf: 66 hrs



I thought that I would do a headshave this morning although it is 6 hrs shy of my normal 3 day schedule.
Everything went according to plan. Three passes gave me a cueball smooth dome and it was drama free. I used the Van der Hagen Select SS to try to finish it. It looks like I may have one or two shaves left. Here's my lather:



Did get a little alum sting on the back of my dome. Splashed on the witch hazel and the aftershave to end this session. I may hold off shaving my face today, but I will see. Take care.

Real nice shave this morning. Very happy, other than some polka-dot issues. No pain. The shave soap(Kairos 2022 from The Grooming Dept.) has joined my "I Can't Be Without This" list. Lathers nicely onto the brush, following 1:00 of loading dock work. Clean and clear all over, minus the polka-dots that formed around North Porcupine Alley(just under the nose). 2 passes. No cuts, Knicks. The Gabels Original Scent is a nice A.S. A little along the lines of Mennen Skin-Bracer. As it should be, since they both came into play in the early 1930's. I bet Gabels copied MSB, or tried to, that is. MSB 1931, Gabels, 1932. Most Outstanding.

Great pic and setup Pierpaolo!

Thanks Gary
