OCtober with the FAT

October 7

Razor - Fatip Piccolo
Blade - (1)
Soap - Mitchell's Wool Fat
Brush - Stirling Finest Badger
Post - Alum

Welcome to an auspicious day. Yes, it's a day that everyone should know, recognize and celebrate. It's a big birthday today! October 7th. Whose birthday, you ask? Why this guy, of course.

Yes, Vladimir Putin was born on this day in 1952. However - just in case you're not a fan of Russians, guys who run around shirtless or just Putin as a person, there is another person who was born on October 7. This time in 1959

So, even if you don't want to celebrate a Russian President's birthday, you can always celebrate a fake Russian Blade Cartel Czar. Your choice. Russian or Russian wannabe. Or neither. Who am I kidding? You can ignore the whole thing.

Good couple of days on the birthday train, though as my wife made sure to make me aware of another year rolling around on the calendar. Happy to have hung around for another trip around the sun. I'll let you know how I feel about it if I'm still here on the next one. Don't expect anything bad to happen. Just realize another decade is gone. Sheesh!

Well, anyway on to the shave. Switched out to the Fatip Piccolo for the OC razor and went to load a Sharp Star and realized they were all upstairs. All 1200+ of them. I'm old now, so didn't climb the stairs but just loaded a Rapira Super Stainless. Sweet blade at a great low price point. Never disappoints. I weighed the FAT at 297 grams, so a 1 gram reduction overnight and used the very nice Stirling badger brush for a great lather. Three passes and I'm as smooth as a wrinkled old guy can get. Took a hit of Geritol to get my energy up to use the alum and found no irritation. Or maybe I can't remember if there was any - either way, it's a win.

Great shave and I hope you all had a great day! Have an even better Tuesday!

Monday SOTN

A comfy blue shave tonight before bed. I wonder how many shaves I'll get out of the Gem blade in the Oneblade? I think I'll try one or two more and push the limit. Have a great night everyone.

It is the soap (and the balm) and I don’t know if they still make it. Definitely one of my favorite scents.
