    Thursday's Shave
    zcws.gif

    Nivea Men Face Wash
    Col. Conk Lime
    Bunny B-400 Badger
    Parker Variant
    Kai Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayer's Lemon WH
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS

    The Col. Conk Lime Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Bunny B-400 Badger brush. I did two passes with the Parker Variant razor and Kai Stainless blade, and I ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayer's Lemon WH and then Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  13. I never claimed that it was mind-boggling...:eatdrink013:

  17. Thursday morning - gotta write it now:

    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/Rapira day 4
    Stirling Sharp Dressed Man S/S :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055:
    Lubriderm Unscented Moisturizer :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055: :love055:
    Acqua di Selva Cologne

    I'll be trying out another splendid Stirling soap which does not contain any menthol - it's the world famous Sharp Dressed Man that I waited so long to get my hands on. Its scent is indeed gorgeous, as well as classy! ;) :D
  18. This Japanese blade has been giving me good shaves for a while, but not excellent shaves. I will fix it. The last time I honed it, I remember the steel was super hard, and thick. So, I will put it to the stones again. Or, hit the pasted strop a little, then strop the snot out of it on the leather. I had a 2 pass DFS, with zero issues. It's too interesting to just leave as a second string razor.

    Razor- Japanese 泰平 TAIHEI 東京
    Brush- Semogue 1305
    Soap- Stirling Ozark Mountain
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman

  19. How was your shave? Mine with the same razor/blade combo was fantastic.:D

  20. Probably my best with the F and hard to beat. Extremely efficient but still comfortable.
