    Good morning fellas!
    Shavette shave # 114
    Dovo Shavette
    Polsilver DE 1/2 (8)
    Barburry Synthetic
    Music City Suds Lavender
    Music City Suds AS
    Nivea ASB not pictured
    Second time using this brush and it adequately delivered a nice lather. It isn't my best brush, but it is my least expensive so I don't mind. Did 2.5 passes without touchups and got just under a BBS without any mishaps. Applied the matching AS and then the Nivea ASB for a very nice, comfortable shave. Got up 10 min earlier so I wouldn't be rushed because I am in the HS today. Have an awesome day, guys! 20191029_233425.jpg 20191029_233425.jpg

    Thank you Danny. The weather is supposed to be great but in the 20s each morning. Good thing I have heated jacket and gloves. ;)

    I think you posted a picture of a Goldwing if I recall correctly.

    Very cool. That explains the weekend work. At least that track has safe runoff areas and crash protection.

    Great report, Bill!
    Sadly my polished Supply is boxed and ready for a return trip. Some defects in the polishing. The replacement is en route though. Should have it Friday.
    Nice shave, Evan! Hopefully things calm for you today.
    Looking good, Joe!
    Have fun at school!

    The Goodwill looks great Evan. Don't get my wife started on Clubman.

    Prep: Cold water and PAA Cube pre-shave soap
    Blade: vintage Schick Plus Platinum
    Razor: Schick G1
    Brush: Ever Ready 100T badger
    Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Post: Witch hazel, Country Club for Men Sweet Water aftershave

    No time for a photo today. Nice shave as expected. I included the official Alabama Awesome element of the Country Club Sweet Water splash, made right here in Birmingham. Unfortunately that company rebranded into Mad Yak Outfitters. He still sells soap but only bath soap and not shaving stuff. Too bad. Excellent quality.

    Enjoy your day!

    Good morning!

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

    Last shave with the Fat for the month. Good stuff. I'll have a final weigh in next week. It had a week of rest before the initial weigh in so I'll do the same.

    Have a great day! [​IMG]

    Nice shave, Evan! You like the Stetson okay? I'm thinking about getting some as I picked up a soap recently that is based on Stetson.
