    Cream: La Toja
    Pre Shave: DIY
    Brush: VDH Badger
    AS: AV Musk

    Very nice 2 pass, WTG/ATG. Smooth on both passes, very little clean- up. One of my better shaves. Very Happy Camper. Not sure about the Aqua Velva AS. Think I`ve tried it before, but it Isn`t bad. Here`s to a great shave for all members and God Bless.

    Gem Stainless blade
    Plisson/L'Occitane brush
    Palmolive Menthol SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue EDT

    Nice shave, the Gem/Gem combo is very smooth and effective for me. Love the Palmolive Menthol SC, great cooling sensation and skin care. Not a big fan of the Light Blue EDT but my wife likes it so there ya go. I'm ready to go, now go enjoy your day folks.

    First shave with the Progress (est. 70s vintage) was pleasant, respectable. Very comfortable at 3 on the beard, cranked to 4 on the head shave proved not to be as efficient as the best, like the Krona required quite a bit if buffing on the crown but BBS achieved so it's a keeper.

    SOTD: 3/22/2017 - "Yes, Please!"

    Pre: Hot shower
    Brush: West Coast Shaving 3-band Silvertip
    Soap: Captain's Choice "45th Parallel"
    Razor: West Coast Shaving Open Comb on Barber Pole stainless handle w/ Voskhod blade (1)
    Post: Captain's Choice "45th Parallel" aftershave balm and "Bay Rum" aftershave

    Hot dang! This soap is excellent. Takes a bit to work up, but it smells like I just dunked my head in a bushel of cherries. And the bay rum on top was quite the kicker. Lovely shave while shooting a special project video coming soon!

    Be smooth and shave it up, everyone!
