    SATURDAY
    'Vintage' shave using some old stuff— strop and brush from the early 1900s, and a straight razor from the mid-1930s.
    Very nice 3-pass shave with the old reliable Böker!
    Have a great Saturday, everyone!

    image.jpg Razor: Feather AS-D2 2015
    Brush: Whipped Dog 30/45 Silvertip
    Mug: Old Spice 1985 Cobalt Blue
    Cream: Truefitt&Hill #10
    Blade: Feather (2)
    Post shave: Thayers Cucumber WH, Jack Black Post Shave Gel, Old Spice Lime original Shulton cologne Frosted Glass 1960s
    Day two with my new Feather razor, and it's quality is still very impressive to me as near perfect as you will find. Very nicely done. The Feather blade locked in like a vault, and there is never a doubt that it is aligned properly. Whipped up a thumb nail size dollop of the T&H in my favorite mug with the Silvertip. I let the weight of the razor do all the work, for a nice relaxing 2 pass shave. I found myself going much closer to my ears to get some stray hairs that I usually get on touchup without hesitation, thanks to the blade being covered on the ends. Very confident with this razor, and it does seem mild, like a 3 on my FB but knocks the hair down with ease. I'll have to try it with 2 or 3 days growth to see how it does, but it is rare for me to go that long. Another great BBS shave, I'm more impressed than I thought I would be, and I think the designers really nailed the little things that only a shaver can appreciate. Finished with the WH, and then some soothing JB. After cleanup some Vintage Old Spice cologne from the '60s. I may have a hard time putting this razor down for awhile. Have a good one y'all!
