Side effect of The Traveling Box, I got to jawing with J.D.
@Jrdelgado. Thanks to a whispered word by Gary
@brit, J.D. offered me a Red & Black case for my '34 New Deluxe 3pc. I countered with an '06 Single Ring. He upped the deal with some of the C & E lime shave cream I wanted to try. I countered with Cajun spices. He got in the near final blow with the Gillette NEW LC pictured above. Beautiful gold plate compared to mine of the same type but entirely brassy. Then the knock out punch, his package had a mostly full tub of Sapone di Paolo (now called ELEVEN Soaps) in a fresh orange EO scent. That old Traveling Box ought to be here at my den shortly. I'm gonna have to find something he needs... But back to the shave! Been RL busy lately so this evening was a three day beard to conquer. I scouped half the lime cream into my bowl, got a quick easy great scented lather out of the Rubberset 400 replica that Steve had marked with my TSD handle. It's not a two band badger, maybe a silver tip? Plenty soft on the face, enough density to get the cream on my face. Took a full WTG using the ultimately adjustable open blade, two and a half with the new to me OC that shave as well as my ratty one but does it with class. No errors from either blade holder, reduced that start of a beard to close and comfy. Splashed on the lime juice twice 'cause it smells so good.
Good Shaves Y'all!
