I have had enough bad shaves this month that I really appreciated this fine English wedge razor and 42 soap and aftershave from Barrister &Mann. Happy Towel day everyone!
You are. Though I'm personally holding out for a woman who will bring me a boxes of ammunition and owns a gun or two.
Sammy Soap - 4 Me - 0 So tonight I had another shave with the Sammy Soap. I'm getting closer (I think) to getting the ratio right. Still performed the disappearing act, but following the second pass it stuck around a bit longer. Still, plenty of slickness. In fact when I splashed my face with warm and began running my hands around my face to see where I needed to touch up, my hands came away soapy. So I used that to touchup instead of the witch hazel. The Schick E3 worked like a charm, though I think I'm getting a bit too cocky and was a bit aggressive. Got a couple of nicks, but nothing serious. Ending the shave, I decided some TSD Eucalyptus witch hazel, and then some spritzes of my go to cologne Invictus. All set to go watch the Cards game tonight. And so begins my 4-day holiday weekend. Happy Thursday.
Not sure if you are a brave man or foolish. I always find a way to piss off my wife and if she knew how to shoot and had a gun, I think she would make good on the promise to shoot me!! Good luck with that!!
I don't have a straight and she's Siciliana. How often have you seen one go near a razor? It is like garlic to a vampire !!!
Floral, lemon, earthy undertones from the tea and the thing that starts with a that I can't spell. It's a different scent, but I like it.
How's the 42 smell? It's difficult to determine from the description. Is it more floral? Cologne-ish? Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk
Wooo. Gotta love the ride on the wild side. Handle.....he don't need no stinking handle!! Bully!!! It was farrrrr out!
Yeah, it is/was a weird one. I don't know what I did to it. It was just fine before, and I made it worse. I have finished a handful of razors on that stone, even one really hard one, and they all worked out fine. Guess I got me some practicin to do.....
Yes - just buying the hones is an expensive proposition, then the strops (buying, then making your own), plus the various grit powders and rouges, AND buying the razors. Oooh - and the argument of 'water vs oil'.
No, they don't. They really don't. I can't really describe the folks that live in the hill country and the Big Thicket (Rural East Texas), but they're interesting. We won't discuss Vidor.
