Dove Men Face Wash
Van Der Hagen Deluxe Shave Soap
Jayaruh #30
Scotch & Stowe w/ Maggard Stainless Fat Handle
Astra SP
CWR, Asma Alum Block
T.N. Dickinson's WH
Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla AS

The Van Der Hagen Deluxe Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #30 silvertip badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Scotch & Stowe razor w/ Maggard Stainless Fat Handle with an Astra SP blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Pinaud Clubman Classic Vanilla After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Thank you.

Thanks, Guy.

The use of a Japanese Schick may well make this Razor feel more smooth and comfortable when shaving . I find that even after extra passes the finish is not that close , it may well suit shavers with lighter beards than mine. May at some time try it with a Twin , but not in a hurry to use up this current blade.

Just now I completed a wonderful three pass shave with the Alumigoose. My Mongoose blade sampler came in yesterday and today I tried the Feather Pro Super blade with wonderful results. La Toja produced it's usual creamy, slick, protective lather. I am dolphin smooth and refreshed. Enjoy your day my friends.

Excellent setup my friend. That brush is outstanding.

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!! SOTD 08/02/16

Mastro Livi for USA​

Vacation time. I decided to put in my luggage the two latest Mastro Livi straight razors I recently added to my collection because I want to try them both and enjoy them as much as possible. I therefore ended up taking with me the two CarboInox razors with scales in which there is an insert of the flags of Italy and USA. Last Sunday I tried the one with Italian flag, so today has been the turn of the straight razor having the USA flag. They are both magnificent with superb CarboInox blades, including this one having a simpler pattern however beautiful. Not to mention how smooth and effective it is in shaving, giving - just like all Mastro Livi razors - a very close and velvety shave. The finishing touch has been delivered by my super cool and super refreshing Thyrrenus aftershave, ensuring a cooling relief from summer heat.​
