Cmon now Kevin, tell us what the soap is

 

Erusta " Bohler Stahl" as new as it gets in restored razors. Master razor restorer Jamie Mahoney left nothing undone on this one. He said it would become my favorite razor and he nailed it. This one will never leave me until the grass grows over me

Nice shave this morning. Have a good one.

 

Nice looking brush

 

Same as the previous two days: IMP shaving.
Used Tabac soap today—great, easy-to-make, thick lather. Powdery, grandma-scent isn't my favorite…..

 

Razor - Fritz Bracht "Tennis" - restored by the master Jamie Mahoney
soap - Razorock Son Of Zeus w/T&H Grafton. This is a winner for a Ubelather. SOZ is my favorite rock
Balm - Soap Commander Passion. These balms are superb, no need of an AS
Todays shave was one of those best ever shaves
