September 30 Day/Rule Focus Pix & Discussion

thank you Jason,mine is a canadian e2 fixed spring,late variant. never tried any other ones.got this in the wild locally with its original 1939 case and blade injector.never bothered to try any othe e types as this one is nice..i have a blue g "66" coming and currently have an L and canadian hydromagic.that will probably be the end of the schick collecting for me..

 

The 'Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous Young YouTubers' are truly amazing.

Thank you, Jason! The performance of Pitralon is very similar to a Fine Accoutrements splash (bracing and light face feel, good menthol tingle) but the scent becomes subdued quickly (like Proraso or Speick).

 

It's a super cool looking brush, Evan. I suspected it would be aluminum due to the weight.

I have some chubby handles, but they get slippery and become difficult to grip. Can you create a pattern on one of these monster handles...and then of course anodize it in red? That would make it a game-changer in terms of utility and appearance. I'm thinking out loud in case you decide to strive for excellence.

 

i think PAA and A&E have the longest lasting aftershaves scent wise..borderline colognes..and nice face feel....,out of the ones i have imo..stirling's as well..

 

PAA and WSP are the longest lasting I have. They are AS-Cologne hybrids for sure.

 

I never saw the appeal to binge playing video games and I certainly REALLY don't get watching other people play.

 

Tabac is top shelf; however, you will run across the occasional unwashed shaver that turns up his nose. It just leaves more Tabac for the rest of us.

I haven't used Arko or MWF in a while, but those are good too. It is fun trying different soaps.

 

Yes indeed! Glad you are enjoying your ride on Straight Street!

 

I slowed down my RAD only to go overboard on soaps and a bit on brushes. However I am creating a best-of list I will live by,... for awhile. Tabac will be high on the list for sure.

 

Super Stirling shave, Jason!

 

very cool,haven't tried the wsp so far.these are artisan makers of course trying to fulfill shaver's wants.all good.i don't know of many old school commercially available aftershaves with the same post shave properties as this wasn't a need in the older days.balms filled that void recently.i will say the nivea deep aftershave is quite good and lasts a bit.pinaud was just made to ward off the soldiers..

 

Joe, didja see the Stoylin E-mail sent out(Fall newbies)?

 

Thanks Joseph! I will officially hit that double 200x straight shaves (400) on Sunday. I am sure that you have over 300 straight shaves and then some.

 

Thanks Clint.

Yes, I am on their list. However, I am not in the market to purchase any soap from them or any other artisan.

 

Well I'm still pondering a NB21

 

Thanks Andrew! I am also looking forward to my 200th traditional straight razor shave this Sunday!

 

Thanks Joe! I timed both milestones for the Labor Day Weekend. Have a safe holiday, my friend.

 

I don't have my AC shavette yet (slow boat from China) , but my tries with the Parker Shavette have not been so great. I am going to watch some videos and this month I will devote to every 2nd or third shave. Not everyday, I will need some time to heal.
