    Brush: Zenith boar

    Soap: Williams Mug Soap
    PAA Galactic witch hazel

    Williams Wednesday

    Good morning!

    Awesome shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. Silent alum.

    Decided on a Williams Wednesday shave. A properly molested puck of Williams provided a thick, slick, stable lather. The Blue Tip has a narrow angle of attack, but maintain that angle and it shaves as close as any razor I own. Finished with Aqua Velva Ice Blue that I picked up from Walgreens the other day while buying tape for the wife's toes. I am clean, fresh and ready for another day.

    Have a great day!

    Thank you, Danny.
    Thanks Jason. I'm determined to finish this bottle of Clubman. I'm not sure the drain could take it in full strength. :)

  10. Terry, Orient Bambinos are solid watches and provide good value. They're offered in several different styles. They hand wind and also wind automatically by your wrist movement. https://www.longislandwatch.com/search_results_a/258.html?search=bambino

    I have a vintage Bulova hand winding dress watch; otherwise, I'd consider getting a Bambino. You can often find these old watches in antique shops at good prices. Often, all they need is a new strap. Mine belonged to my Bride's Dear Uncle. It wasn't in great shape, so I had it restored. It is from my birth year. I wouldn't take a vintage watch like this one anywhere near water, though.

    I don't bloom, drown, or otherwise do anything to my soaps anymore.

  13. Nice shave Jim
    Blue tips are nice.
    Hope your wife's toe gets better, I hate walking around with a sore toe.
    What do you do to your William's to get it to lather??

  18. It takes a little more to get my attention, Terry. The Dunce Cap is really doing a number on my hair. And then, well, there's @Edison Carter...

  20. My wife picked up the TOBS brush, 2 creams and a shave soap as a surprise in London. You’re right I was within 1 km of Myrsol and skipped it along with BSB and Romera. I did buy some La Toja shave sticks and cream but that was it.
