    Neutrogena Men Facial Wash
    Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster
    Super Speed/7 AM day 6
    Wriggly Tin Coffee SS
    Dave’s Homemade ASB
    Issey Miyake Pour Homme EdT

    Would you believe I grabbed the wrong soap? I still got a lovely shave in spite of how rushed I was. This Wriggly Tin Coffee is a fantastic soap and my good friend Dave makes a wonderful balm!

    F5D6529E-74F4-4CBD-8F35-E61CB8D9C634.jpeg Well third time is the charm so I reached for another Merkur and this time the 37C slant came to hand. I have been on a run of modern razors as opposed to my vintage Gillette choices and quite enjoying them. The slant is an exceptional shaver and though I also have a 39C, I enjoy the weight and balance of the 37C more. Started with the Proraso pre-shave and lathered up with the TFS Corte Sabauda with the matching AS. Fantastic 3 pass shave!!

    Great shave from a Double Concave bladed razor. Somewhat silent and very smooth, 2 pass shave, that left me BBS. Zero issues. Smallish razor, with a big punch. This is a very uniquely made blade. If anyone runs across one of these, don't hesitate to snatch it up.

    Razor- Simmons Hardware Co.. "No.8 Special". St Louis MO. Absolute Guarantee. Pat Feb 18, 1902.
    Brush- JR#262
    Soap- TOBS Sandalwood
