  1. Fantastic photo Bruce. Love the brush. :happy088: Thanks for the tip on the Mitchell's Lanolin M.
  2. Thank you Bruce. :)
  3. Nice filter effects, Bruce!
  4. Thanks for the Fine feedback, Clint. Worst pun in history, I apologize.
  5. The Barbasol Brisk is already pretty packed with menthol goodness. I bet that was a really cold splash!
  6. Thank you! I’m thrilled but a little nervous. This is a huge change in my life.
  7. I think I may have created a problem for myself with how many splashes I have added menthol crystals too. The first time I used the Brisk, my main thought was that it was nice, but I wished it was colder. It's colder now. :)
  8. I bought the matching set of Italian Citrus soap and aftershave. It's ok for me but not as good as most of their other scents. Folsom & Company is back in business but having trouble keeping up with orders. Their Capri and Shambala are excellent citrus type scents that are worth considering.
  9. Most excellent setup & photo!
  10. Thanks Andrew! I'm quite fond of it! Is there any JR handle that isn't great though? :)
    wristwatchb, sdguero, RyX and 5 others like this.
  11. Thank you Jason!
    And, since I'm here...the same goes for your post as well! I enjoy seeing the Cooper!
  12. Great shot of great gear! Taunting Neal @NCoxSTL again? ;)
  13. Congrats Brian!! How many potato farmer jokes have you heard so far? :D
  14. Thank you, Bruce!
  15. Oh sure, you apologized. But did you retract the pun by deleting it so none of us had to read it? ;)

    Astra SP (7)
    Simpson Chubby 2 Super
    Jeeves of Hudson Street Private Study shave soap
    Thayers Lavender witch hazel, unrefined shea butter, and CC Bay Rum aftershave


    I enjoyed my first shave this morning with Jeeves of Hudson Street Private Study shave soap thanks to @Drygulch. I had mountains of slick lather and was rewarded with a super close and comfortable shave. The soap scent was mild and pleasant, and it paired very well with the CC Bay Rum aftershave and a shot of Aramis cologne. This new soap is a welcome addition to my current soap rotation. In fact, I can use this one on Mondays when I need to go unscented, and I think it would be fine. The Astra SP blade performed exceedingly well all week and is now resting comfortably in the blade bank. Time for a new Voskhod blade tomorrow.

    I hope you all are having a fantastic day!

  18. Beautiful set up! I will try to include some of my sharp shiny things in future SOTD photos!
  19. Clint, fantastic restoration on the Ever Ready 100T. It looks great, and I bet it performs well.
  20. Hope to see you out there(if I choose that area). :)
