Just finished a week with the Personna red blade. First time I've tried these. Very nice. Seems to be as smooth as the Derby but sharper. Got a full week out if it and could have gone longer. No cuts all week.
It's the most wonderful time....of the week.... Menthol Monday!!!! :rah::rah: Here is my chilly setup: Cold Shower with Stirling Glacial Lemon Chill Bath Soap Frozen Towel To Prep The Beard Merkur Futur on 6/Voskhod (1) JR #23 Silvertip Brush Catie's Bubbles MHM Maggard Alum Block Fine Snakebite AS splash
My friend, Matt from QCS is European himself - he's from Germany, so even though the Vostok is made in the US, the producer isn't!

Thank you! It's a Becker travel/brush scuttle, and I use it nearly every day. He sells on eBay if you're interested in getting one. He actually made me a couple of others in different colors. I just unpacked them from the shipping box. He's a really nice gentleman.
Hmmm...how expensive are they? If it's not to bad I may accidently pick one up...I have this weird condition...it is similar to sleep walking except it is where I am awake and buy stuff. Dr's are still attempting to diagnose me but they haven't told me to stop.
I have a Becker travel scuttle too which I like very much. Very reasonably priced ($30 shipped) for an excellent quality scuttle.
Your scuttle is a beauty as well. It's reasonably priced, and it is the perfect size for someone who face lathers.
Never mind...not using the Futur...just checked the tracking number and my Fatboy will be here in the A.M.!!!!

Monday's TESC Pre-Shave Oil Proraso Green Shaving Soap Semogue Owners Club Dorco PL 602 Plastic DE Dorco ST300 Stainless CWR, Asma Alum Block Thayers Rose Petal WH Aqua Velva Ice Blue The Proraso Green Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my JSemogue Owners Club boar brush. Two passes with my new Dorco PL 602 Plastic razor and a Dorco ST300 Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Aqua Velva After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
SHAVE OF the day Prep: Musgo Real classic Razor: Gillette ball end tech Blade: Bic (3rd shave) Brush: Fine Angel Hair Synthetc Lather: Arko Adventure cream Post: Reef Point Dragons Blood Balm 2 pass shave today. Haven't used the Arko cream in a while, not the best stuff on the market, but not a bad cream for the price. Not the greatest shave, had some stubble left, and the blade seemed to be dragging a bit. Finished off with RP balm, great stuff highly recomended. Hope everyone had a great shave!
