    Very very nice Clint! Love the color coordination.

    3 shaves 24 hours? Wow. I've been tempted to try the 12 hour thing the past week....still not there yet. The Feather AC system rocks!

    Very nice Tommy. Great variety!

    Sounds like a great shave Paul!

    Love the razor and setup Jason. Nice image. Almost finished that soap...cool!

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    Timeless SS .95OC
    Feather (3)
    JR #352 (30mm, Cruiser Class)
    Tabac
    The Veg
    SP Dottie lather bowl

    Went full out retirement home shave this morning. Epic lather from the Tabac in my new SP bowl, with a little help from the Blue Ming.

    The Timeless SS razor is a tank. Medium blade feel but still very smooth. Three passes brought home the baby with easy. No irritation or sting from the AS. A few drops of the Veg is enough to catch whiffs of throughout the day without offending your co-workers or attracting stray cats. Have a great day my friends!

    Great looking shave and photo Andrew. Congrats on the new razor. Just be careful it doesn’t attract a load of old women

    Monday OCtober 21

    Going with some US made razors this week. First up is my 1934 Aristocrat. While this razor shaves well, it's not quite as good as my British Aristocrat #15.

    Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
    Soap - MWF (it's Monday)
    Brush - Rubberset 400-3
    Blade - Gillette Platinum (5)
    Razor - Gillette Aristocrat 1934 (US)
    Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Clubman Reserve Whiskey Woods

    Shave rating 5 of 5

    This Aristocrat is a mild razor and not very efficient. I received a good shave in 2 passes. I didn't shave over the weekend so I had 3 days beard growth. The first pass WTG was smooth with no blade feel, and not very efficient and it left me with some stragglers, <DFS. The second pass, XTG and again was a very smooth pass with absolutely no blade feel and and finished BBS. The MWF lather was very good on both passes. I got a 2 pass, nick and weeper free shave. The alum was silent, even on my neck area which is unusual. I finished off with the Clubman Whiskey Woods, a scent I really like.

    Overall, a really good shave. Going with some US made OC razors this week.

    Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.
