    Paul, it's a re-release of the scent as a collaboration between B&M and West Coast Shaving. This is the new Excelsior soap base.

    More often that not, I'll use one soap for 3 days. But I do have to admit, by the 3rd day, I'm already anticipating my next one.

    Personally I think I have too many soaps. I’m trying to use them up. I find the triple Milled Soap Harderto get through

    Oh god this is embarrassing. But it's all I have and I am happy to be using it.

    Beard and Company Protect Oil is awesome for a beard oil (which is what i use it for) and I've been using it to shave with this razor. Been working out well.

    DEFINITELY want to upgrade though. I use it exclusively for my cheek lines.

    I think it is a good picture with great gear and an outstanding background.

    Superspeed (NDC) and green mountain soap! It always amazes me how good these vintage razors are.

    Cold Water Shave
    Prep: Warm shower
    Pre: Musgo Real Glyce soap

    Blade: PolSilver SI

    No picture for today :( . Been doing some experimenting to achieve a closer and irritation free shave. Irritation has gotten much better when using cold water and a more aggressive base plate, might have to keep the 6 plate when going ATG because my neck still has stubble after the final pass. Or, just remove the WTG pass all together since I don't feel it does much when shaving every day. Still a DFS, no doubt, will try again tomorrow.
    Happy shaves!

    I used a nice Sheffield ground razor today. A smooth 2 pass shave, that left me with a DFS. I got three little weepers from this one, because I was rushed. I didn't know it happened, until I saw blood. This is one wickedly sharp blade.

    Razor- Chicago Pocket Knife Co. Made in Sheffield England
    Brush- RazoRock 400. Whipped Dog High Mountain Badger
    Soap- TOBS Cedarwood. I like this scent a lot.
    Aftershave- Arctic Blue, by Krogers.
