    The Grand Poohbah, Joe, @Trigger, will grant you the option to switch lathers. Nonetheless, Arko does give a nice shave John. Congratulations to your niece.

    Wonderful shaves on Wednesday and Thursday. Both shaves had sufficient lather for at least four passes. I sticky with my customary three.

    Glorious weather here on Long Island. I hope it holds up through Saturday evening as we will be celebrating my son’s 14 birthday. As a result I have been preparing food all day.

    Hope you all are having my a great day.

    June 7 SOTA

    Good afternoon.

    Rockwell 6C (plate #5)
    Feather Hi Stainless DE Blade (1,2)
    J T Spartan Synthetic Brush
    TSD Barbershoppe SS and AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Personal Care Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 31 hrs
    Dome Turf: 3 days

    It was time to do a head and face shave. I decide to place a fresh Feather blade in my Rockwell 6C. I haven't used Feather blades in years so I want to thank my two anonymous donors who included these blades that was part of a big haul.
    Again, TSD lanolin soaps produce a wonderful slick lather. Here it is:

    Because Feathers are ûber sharp, I only need 2 passes for my face and neck, but I needed 2 passes on my dome plus touchups. There wasn't any blood loss. I did achieve a BBS shave on my face, neck and dome. The only Alum feedback was on the left side of the dome, but it wasn't painful. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave. Needless to say, I am quite pleased with this session. Take care.

    Days growth = 1

    Cold water rinse
    Prep = bloom water
    Cream/Soap = Clubman Pinaud 59 gr puck
    Brush = Vulfix Old Original Sovereign travel 2189
    Bowl = face lather, going back to the puck as needed
    Razor = Rocket HD
    Blade = Astra Superior Stainless (3)
    Passes = 3
    Post = Usual CWR, no alum, towlel dry, Thayers
    ASL = none
    Scent = Red Musk
    Damage = none

    Trying out a travel kit… this very small travel brush needs re-loading from the puck for each pass, quite manageable though. Face lather, also manageable. The small Clubman Pinaud puck provides a nice slick lather, thinning out towards the end of the shave, water buffing still worked out fine. Overall great result, but not a luxurious shaving event

    Have a great weekend, one and all

    Excellent shave and setup Chris. Love Pinaud-Clubman products. Never tried the soap.
