Thanks Jim. I'm going for seven shaves on this one. This is the blade that I'm unsure will make it, but we'll see. Enjoy your weekend!
DECember 9 SOTD: Rubberset 400 Stirling Port-au-Prince PAA Bakelite Alpha Ecliptic Stirling Unscented PSB Fine Fresh Vetiver AS Two passes and BBS this morning. It was a terrific shave. This version of Port-au-Prince is a few years old, so it is a beef tallow soap rather than the Sheep tallow the current version is. It is still slick, and the scent is great. This is also a soap scent that sticks around for a while. I think it pairs nicely with Fine Fresh Vetiver, and at least my kids agree. All in all a great start to my day. I hope everyone has a great day!
Funny thing is the temps are above freezing but it has been snowing faster than it can melt. The roads are mostly clear. My wife wants to go Christmas shopping so we will be getting out in the hour or two.
Very nice Mark! That brush is wonderful! Fantastic effect with the photo Charlie! Look at all the pretty snow! I'm kinda jealous...
Love that setup and photo!! What do you think of the razor? They intrigue me. It appears that finding the angle would be intuitive.
December 9, 2017 OneBlade Genesis Modified Gem PTFE (3) Ever Ready 100T with TGN Finest MdC Myrsol Agua Balsamica The last day with the MdC and Ever Ready before moving on was another great shave. Everything just works so well together. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. A splash of Myrsol and I am ready to get out as soon as the bride is ready. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.
Blackland Blackbird Astra (2) - Feather (2) JR 223 brush Stirling Barbershop Started with the Astra but it tugged. Lucky to finish the pass. Switched to Feather and all seemed right in the shaving world. Ill try some other blades but this razor likes the super sharp. Enjoy your day, men. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk
Great filter photo Jim and one cool looking razor. I really like Fine Fresh Vetiver. It seems to pair well with so many soaps.
