    Breaking out the travel brush for a few days. This will be better understood in the next few weeks. Outstanding shave again today. The Route 66 A Perfect Gent is another outstanding shave soap from this company.:happy088::happy088::happy088::happy088:

  2. How is the Trader Joe's balm? I have some from the kit but haven't used it yet. I used the soap and enjoyed the scent.
  3. Beautiful razor.

  7. It's ok. Feels like watered down lotion. I get a stinging sensation if I have nicks
  8. Thank you sir!
  9. Beautiful razor, case, blade, soap, brush, and after shave. I like the idea of putting the name of the soap on the side. :happy096: That will be my next project. Thanks.

  10. Thank you Doug, it was an epic shave.
    The labels really help me identify my soaps, especially because I have multiple aftermarket tubs.

  11. SHAVE OF THE DAY- TOBACCO TUESDAY
    sotd2.jpg


    PREP: MUSGO REAL OAKMOSS
    RAZOR: MAGGARD MR18C
    BLADE: LORD PLATINUM (1ST SHAVE)
    BRUSH: OMEGA S SYNTHETIC
    SOAP: WSP TOBACCO
    POST: OSAGE RUB/ WSP TOBACCO


    Went for a 3 pass shave today. the WSP whipped up a good lather, and I like their take on a tobacco scent. BBS finish, but got a few nicks and some redness. Decided to give the Lord Platinum a second chance, I like the other Lord blades very much, but I remember this particular one being a bit rougher than the others. Overall it was a decent shave, finished off with the matching WSP Tobacco aftershave. Hope everyone has a great shave!

  14. Thanks. I wish I had some way to display my razors in their cases, but that starts really eating up wall real estate.

  17. I emailed you a few pictures.

    I like that cabinet. You've started me thinking. Oh no, this could lead to a marital problem. :)
    I jest, I have an Ace up my sleeve. I also keep blank cards hidden in my work shop with cash in them. Just in case I for get a birthday, or the date we first met. Who remembers this stuff. My wife does. So if I have a blank card with cash in it I can pretty well escape most dates I should have remembered. :)

    Obsession for Men EdT

    Although I love the Razorock On-X soap and aftershave (I really do) they don't have enough of a menthol freeze which I crave for, so I selected these items. The MITA soap's scent is so delightful, the lather's a pleasure to work up, and the menthol effect is a real excellent one with top skincare. The Lucky Tiger aftershave cream prolongs that chill, and the Alt Innsbruck hits hard with its own beautifully-scented iciness. I'd say the Astras are almost as good as the Derbys - to me they're right up there! ;) :D

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Tabac
    Jayaruh #32 horse
    Gillette Black Tip
    Personna
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Cucumber WH
    Pinaud Vegetal

    The Tabac Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #32 horse hair brush. Two passes with my Gillette Black Tip razor and a Personna Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Cucumber WH and then Pinaud Vegetal after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
