    Love the orange Matt. I hope you have a review coming. I always enjoy reading your comments. I like B&M and this sounded intriguing.

    Decadent December!!!

    December 7

    Razor - 1946-47 Gillette Aristocrat
    Blade - [​IMG] (3)
    Soap - Stirling Ozark Mountain
    Brush - 30DC Meet-Up LE w/ TGN Silvertip Grade A
    Post - Alum

    A bit of a late Saturday, or at least later than I've been doing for awhile but it's finally done and the shave can commence. Third shave on the Aristocrat/Voskhod combination. Decadent Stirling Ozark Mountain for the soap, lathered by the 28mm Grade A Silvertip residing in a 30DC Meet-Up handle. This knot is breaking in fast and did an excellent job. Really nice, soft and luxurious feel with plenty of backbone. Three passes with the "Detente" setup and the baby is in the house and the alum was just a formality. Not even a hint of a twinge there. Pretty cool to realize how decadent this shave is using pretty "ordinary" gear. Aristocrats aren't rare, Stirling is still the best value soap in my opinion. The fanciest part - that awesome brush handle with a top of the line Silvertip. Still, not a high dollar event to put this one together. Hope you had a great Saturday! Enjoy your Sunday!!

    I had been thinking about the Ikon SBS for some reason and decided to bring it out for a few shaves. I used a previously used Personna and it wasn't the smoothest tonight... I think I'll toss it and start with a fresh blade tomorrow and see if the shave is better. Maybe I'll go with the more aggressive side of the baseplate tomorrow? Happy shaves all.
