    The Col. Conk Lime Shave Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #128 brush. I did two passes the Gillette Fatboy and Wilkinson Sword Super Sword blade, I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with T.N. Dickinson's WH and then Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Fatboy February!!!!!

    Late to the party again!! Sunday's shave.

    February 26
    Razor - 1959 Gillette Fatboy (6)
    Blade - [​IMG] (3)
    Soap - Soap Commander Courage
    Brush - Omega 10066 BoS
    Post - Alum

    Final shave on the Rapira blade and it's a good thing. The Super Stainless is my least favorite type of blade and most, including this one and the Gillette Nacet from St Pete, work better than most until they don't. This one was about half a shave too many but I finished with it. It just gets a bit rough and tuggy where the PTFE and Platinum blades don't do that.

    My main focus was back on the Soap Commander soap to give it a second try. I used Stirling last night and confirmed how great a lather it produces and with great ease. The Soap Commander was equally amazing tonight. Very short load, even had the brush a tad too wet and all it did was produce three passes of lather with more to spare. Slick and thick. Pretty impressive. In fact, when I did the first few strokes and felt the roughness I blamed the lather.......until I felt it and realized how slick it was. Nope, not a lather problem. All blade.

    Finish was a near-BBS and that's good enough for me. Alum was a tad warm and the blade is in the bank. Tomorrow night I'll be back to the Route 66 to give it a turn in this shave by shave comparison. Hope your weekend was a good one!

    Night and Day
    I shaved last night with four days growth, just in case I got a nick or weeper. It was my first night shave. It was epic - the Futur easily cut down my stubble with no drama at all. Rhapsody is a wonderful scent. This morning I made a quick one pass with my favorite sandalwood - Reef Point. I used WSP Sandalwood PSO for the first time, and it has a warm, woody scent that goes well with RP.
