Well, I am not sure it does exist anymore. I get the impression it wasn't an overly popular choice for Stirling, as I think they have discontinued it. I will admit, it is down the list of Stirling soaps I reach for, but it isn't terrible. Like all Stirling soaps, the performance is top notch. I think my wife actually enjoys the scent a bit, but she may just not want to hurt my feelings.
Thursday Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Bath Soap-Scots Pine Sheep Soap: Country Club-Cahaba Blues (Tallow) Razor: Gillette Fat Boy Blade: Gillette 7 O’Clock Green Super Stainless (1) Brush: Thater Silvertip-26mmx55mm Aftershave: Country Club-Southern Oud WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard) Country Club-Cahaba Blues again today(one of their new tallow soaps). 20 seconds to load the Thater silvertip.

The Crazy Ivan in SEptember! September 24 Razor - Schick M2 Injector Blade - (2) Brush - Vie Long 12750 The Horse Soap - Arko Post - Cold Water, Alum, Nivea Day two on the M2 and I opened it up about halfway on the dial. Yesterday's shave wasn't bad but very mild so let's see what adding some gap does for it. Chose the Horse with Arko today. Great lather as always with Arko and I do love a horse hair brush. Almost wanted to rinse off and lather again just for the fun of it. Two passes and a touchup pass on the neck today. Had good results once I hit the right angle. The XTG felt good and smooth and I just had to do an extra XTG with some sliding on the neck to get a very nice DFS. Some days this might be a BBS, but I'm being picky. Why? Because I can. My impression after two shaves with the M2 is that yes, it is a very nice razor and it does what it's supposed to do. No doubt about that. Tomorrow it will be on its most aggressive setting just to see what it does. But, I don't see myself converting to injectors anytime soon. That's also based on the earlier work with the E2. Very nice razor, really fun to shave with but I'm not a convert. If I had to choose a favorite SE of the four I've tried at this point it would be the Gem 1912. But, we'll see what opening the M2 all the way up does for my opinion. I'm off to stare at a computer for about six hours. Remember when training used to be actually doing something?

Vielen Dank - von dir ist das so lieb. Ich habe ein bisschen Schmerz aber garnicht zu gross. Ich kann ohne Probleme zu Fuß zu gehen und ich kann einfach Arbeit im Haus zu tun. Ich weigere mich, nichts Schweres immer zu heben.
