  1. Thanks Doug. @jtspartan did a fantastic job on these brushes.
  2. Last shave for me of Williams Wednesday! It went great! The vintage was what I used today for the final shave!
    Gonna be a long day at work, so at least I got a great shave!

    This is the lather that's left over after 3 passes and touch-up... Almost makes me sad to waste it lol. Have a great Friday!

  9. 5722FE25-A510-497C-A3E7-359C4E1E7F3E.jpeg Friday morning’s action:

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Goodfella/new 7AM
    Stirling Frozen Tundra SS
    Prep ASB
    Alcolado Glacial Menthol Splash
    Givenchy Gentleman EdT

    This shave was like menthol Paradise as well as mega-BBS. After struggling with a Derby blade on its fourth use yesterday I threw away the damned thing and grabbed this new 7 AM and what a difference. Two swift, effortless passes and I was done. The Frozen Tundra soap is awesome - the minty/earthy scent is beautiful, the lather whipped up so rich as well as slick, and the menthol pummeled my face hard but it felt wonderful. The Prep and Penguin were a perfect finish!

    Have a great weekend!
  10. Excellent shave today.
    Hot Water wash
    Whipped Dog deep set silvertip
    Soap Commander Respect
    Gillette pre-war tech/ikon oss handle
    Persona lab (1)
    Pinaud Lime SEC
    No pic, everything is commonly seen. But trust me, the results feel wonderful.
    Hope y'all did as well, or better.
  11. Nice photo Jeff. Enjoy your weekend.

  17. sink of cool water
    hot soaked salsa bowl and tri-city brush
    a bit of vasmol cream
    lavender soap
    plastic shavette w/2 use gillette platinum
    luke warm rinse followed by cool water rinse
    denim black a/s

    2 passes n-s and diagonal
    1 tiny nick on the first pass that resulted in a dot of red that disappeared when I relathered and never reappeared.No sting when the a/s was applied.I thought the vasmol would add a bit of slickness to the lavender soap and the soap would add a bit of fragrance to the cream.well the cream added the slickness and overpowered the soap fragrance with its laundry detergent smell.I'll have to try more soap loaded on the brush next time. ended up with a nice shave .The gillette blade seems to be a bit better in my shavette than my de.The Denim a/s left my face soft and smelling nice without being loud.
  18. Gem Damaskeene razor
    Gem Stainless blade
    WD Silver Tip brush
    Williams SS (modern)
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Barbasol Brisk A/S w/added menthol

    Another nice shave till the blade died, just stop cutting the stubble. Got 1 1/2 passes done and had to finish with another razor/blade. All ended well though and my face is happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.
  19. love the dr jons and clubman..
