OCtober MWF~~Simpson Emperor 3~~1908 Gillette~~Feather~~Old Spice Lime This may be the only time I adhere completely to this month's theme. My remaining OC razor (I used to have 6-7) is this lovely 1908 SR. Paired with a thrice-used Feather blade, I went to work. My MWF starts the month at this weight (including ceramic container) I am not going to weigh it everyday. If this runs out before the end of the month, I have a replacement puck waiting in the wings. Last evening, I re-grated my dried-up puck and pressed it back into the container. I should have weighed it first, but that ship has sailed. In addition to the daily MWF, I am going to finally titanic my way through this bottle of AS. The Feather blade in an already aggressive razor left me with two small weepers. Despite my best efforts to ride the cap, chasing the baby seemed like a good thing to do. Fact is, when my Feather blades are gone...who knows when?, I will not buy them ever again. I am going to use EDRIO as well as EDBIO this month, starting with the DE's, then the shavette and finally the straights. Hopefully, I will have received my new Heljistrand MK32 from Glen, who is outfitting it with new, bone scales.
Excellent photo and post Joseph. I am looking forward to seeing Glen's magic on the razor. I know you're excited.
October 1 SOTD: Razor: PAA Ascension SS Blade: Personna Blue Brush: PAA The Green Ray Lather: PAA Lavender Planet Aftershave: PAA Lavender Planet I happen to have a fairly large collection of soaps and AS with me, as I didn't want the movers to pack them (my wife has since let me know they won't pack any of them, so I will actually have everything with me shortly). For some reason, the Lavender Planet really sounded appealing today, so I pulled it out. After a nice lather, my razor wiped away the lovely lavender scent and whiskers with ease. I did two passes for a DFS and followed up with a nice splash of the matching scent. I hope everyone has a great day!
Good morning gents Two pass shave, WTG&XTG, with touch-ups. The shave was close enough, slight redness around a mole, but otherwise the everything went well. Clubman didn't burn too much. I used some unscented moisturiser after the AS, otherwise my face would get too dry.
Dentist appointment this morning-the purty hygienist will think I took a drinka GIN(with the Clubman Gent's Gin this morning).
Thanks, Jim! I was nose blind to this scent earlier this morning, I really couldn't pick up much of anything. As I'm sitting here waiting for my work assignment for the day I'm picking up the scent much better now. Very nice! Nice shave, Dale! Beautiful picture, Clint! Congrats on the new brush! Terrific pics and report, Joseph! Somehow this snuck into my multi quote. I'm not very good at it.
Wonderful post and pictures, Joseph! I forgot to weigh my soap and container. I'll do that tonight if I can remember.
