September 6
Hello gents! I'm back from a short trip to northern Ohio with my Bride and a couple of friends. My daily shaves for the last few days were straight out of my travel kit, which consisted of a Trac II handle loaded with a Personna blade, my trusty Kent BK4 brush, a Tabac shave stick, and unrefined shea butter. I'm not feeling up to par today, so I resorted to a quick shower shave this morning using a Dorco cart, brushless Neutrogena shave cream, unrefined shea butter, and Trumper Skin Food.
Unfortunately, I'm too far behind to catch up, so I'll just jump in. I'll stick with my Fatboy, and will continue to focus on using up my LPL soap and a bottle of Trumper Skin Food. I also plan to continue trying some new-to-me Russian DE blades compliments of
@NCoxSTL.
We visited a lumber company in Northern Ohio that stocked quite the variety of lathe-ready exotic woods. The pieces were expensive, but they wouldn't be too bad spread across several
@Jayaruh brush handles. I almost buckled under the temptation, but I remembered that I had a
B-400 by Tom aluminum handle and and an Envy White Supreme Two-band knot waiting at home. I'll definitely keep it in mind if we make a return trip.
Have a great day, all!
