    February 20 SOTD:

    Razor: Timeless Bronze OC
    Blade: Sputnik
    Brush: Stirling Marble
    Lather: Maggards London Barbershop
    Aftershave: Maggards London Barbershop
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Unscented PSB

    I decided to give the Maggards one more try, and it still just doesn't quite make the cut. I will be PIFing it soon. It isn't terrible by any stretch, just not great, and I have so many soaps, there is no need to keep it. It is a shame, as the scent is lovely. The shave itself was nice the morning as I got a two pass DFS from this beautiful razor. Not much more to say. I hope everyone has a great day!

    Not enough time to keep up with all the math, physics and metaphysical discussions here, just enough time to post my shave. Mastro Live blade delivered a nice shave, excellent and just short of epic.

  6. Great lineup and photo Jared. I agree the PdP tins are way to small. I cheated and grated the soap in a larger tub and kept the tin for photos. I agree the soap will last a very long time.
  7. Wonderful filter effect and a great write up Rick.

  8. Great lineup and photo Jim. At least you gave the soap one more try.
  9. Mastro Livi razors are just gorgeous. What kind of Shavemac knot did you use?

    Another great shave this morning. I really enjoy the Jeeves Bay Rum soap. However, I seem to either use to much soap or not enough. One more try with it in shave stick form before I give up and transfer it to a tub. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. A splash of Krampert's Bay Rum kept the theme going. The skin care of Krampert's is top notch but I do wish the scent was stronger with better staying power. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.
  11. Beautiful picture and razor, Keith!
    Terrific picture, Clint!
  12. Thank you, Clint! Have a great day!

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Schick
    Razor: Schick L5 'Revere' injector
    Brush: Stirling Kong synthetic
    Lather: Jeeves of Hudson Street Turkish Bath
    Post: Witch hazel, Jeeves of Hudson Street Tobacco Bay Leaf aftershave
    WTG, touch up

    Continuing to work on this little bit of Jeeves Turkish Bath. It's such good soap. The Kong brush created beautiful lather in a short time. So slick and shiny and hydrated. Terrific stuff.

    Fun times with the Schick Revere injector and all worked together quite well. Enjoyable and easy shave.

    I'm pushing through on the Turkish Bath except for using The Fat on Friday. I'd like to finish something and move on to another soap. I'm certainly enjoying this soap in the meantime.

    Have a great day!

    The usual suspects again today. Can't believe I could stick to the same routine for this long but only a few more days left to go. I can now shave with confidence and get results like never before.
    Thanks@RyX for suggesting I try a 30 day rule and to all who gave me advice during my break in period. Couldn't have found a better place to land.
    I'm looking forward to March and learning another new tool. Happy shaves today guys.

  18. I had the exact same thought. The girl I saw curling for Canada weighed like 60 pounds, and she was quite good. Makes you think... By the way, can I get banned for using PEDs on TSD? (Asking for a friend.)
