  1. I really don't know, but with my track record with boar brushes shedding (specifically Semogue and Thäter), I just don't want to take any chances.

    Hello!
    Got up a little late, grabbed a dependable razor with a new blade.
    My MMOC never lets me down.

    2 passes head and face, no clean-up, no issues. Few razors can give me such a good clean shave in my den.

    Nice!
    all
    Enjoy!

    I Coloniali~~Mondial 26mm~~Dovo~~Alt Innsbruck
    Needed to make a change this morning. I got a new bottle of Alt Innsbruck in the mail yesterday.

    Some might recall that my other 5+ year-old bottle began to separate.
    There were, what appeared to be oil/water separation, and these globules were darkish in color,
    so I dumped it. My favorite pairing with Alt Innsbruck is I Coloniali.
    They simply "work".
    The Italian soap really drank up a copious amount of H2O. Indeed, without this much added water,
    the soap is simply not slick enough.
    Results:

    I haven't used a traditional straight in a while and I was "joansing" (sic) for the dark side.
    Gave the Dovo a thorough stropping, à la Primo-technique and with my skin well-prepped
    with the extra-slick soap, the Dovo was a dream to use; buttery and smooth.
    Excellent results sans bloodshed.

    Reached for the medicated Thayer's, followed by the Alt Innsbruck.
    SWMBO is not a huge fan of the Austrian juice, but once it dries off, the sweetness subsides.
    Primo likey. :D
  16. Classic shave, Gary!
  17. Very nice, Maestro!
  18. That is good news Joseph. Thanks for the update. I will continue to keep your daughter and your family in my prayers. Take care.
  19. Happy Friday Terry. Great looking shave and photo.


    Very nice Tommy. I hope you are doing well.


    Lovely shave Gary. If it snowed here in Atlanta, the city would be shut down all weekend.


    Great shave. Love the write up Joseph. I hope you have a great day as well.

    My new Hiram razor arrived in the mail yesterday so today will be my last shave of the week with the Enoch. The "Soap Destroyer" loaded and lathered the Colonia with ease. I went with a traditional 3 pass shave followed by touch ups along the jaw line and buffing my lower right neck. I ended up with the a wonderful drama free BBS shave. I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday.
