SOTD February 11th Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap Schick Injector Type F Personna Maseto Shaving Classic (30mm, Cruiser Class) Stirling Haverford soap and AS Stirling Glacial Unscented PSB This week is going to be an Injector theme week for me as I work through EDRIO. No better place to start then with the Type F. All metal construction and industrial good looks! The Type F not only looks good but to me is a very aggressive razor, right up there with the E2 and Pal IM. I also realized that there was still one more scent from my Stirling Black Friday order that I haven't tried yet, Haverford. Sweet tobacco and vanilla and STRONG! Opening the soap tub quickly made the bathroom smell like my grandpa was smoking a cigar near by. A nice heavy load with the poor mans Chubby 3 had me a bowl full of lather that looked like melted chocolate ice cream. I finished with Stirling Glacial Unscented PSB followed by a very light application of the Haverford AS, which I can still smell quite strongly 5 hours later. Have a great day my friends!
My Shave of the Week Schick G4/Route 66 razor Personna 74 blade day 4 Omega 10066 boar brush Stirling Margaritas in the Artic SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe Barbasol Brisk A/S w/added menthol Great shave and my face is very happy. I've decided to use this combo all week since it worked so well this morning. Maybe change the brush but that would be all. A couple of weeks ago I said that I was going to use up the MITA SS. I did this because it had such a large hole in the Stirling container. I moved the remnants to an Old Spice mug and it was 1/2 full!! Lots left but I'm still going work on using it up. Anyway, all is well so go enjoy your day folks
Zamak warriors, good Zamak (Apollo) vs atrocious Zamak (Rotbart). Maybe not a fair fight, the minty Apollo is wonderfully smooth, the Rotbart not so much.
