Great looking Bay Rum shave Andrew.

Just beautiful Evan.

Wonderful shave and photo Jason.

Awesome lineup Gary. The smoke looks like it is bad

Well instead of teasing people maybe I should make a real post.

I used the RR BBS with GSB blade and the Tabac stick soap, vs the Voskhod I'd chosen for the 1 week challenge. and indeed I did get a better shave, but not perfect. So tomorrow putting the Lucky Tiger Cream back in and see if I get back to the perfect shaves I've been having.
If so the Vos will be kept to pair to my ATT S1/S2,
and yes, I'm going off schedule with the 1 week challenge but it is the scientific method!

Haven't tried my Bic blade yet. I understand it is a bit sharper than GSB and less than Feather. Feather irritates me no matter what I'm using. So I'm either going to tie the GSB in the RazoRock BBS (could not be much better) or get irritated.

Thank you Clint! I get a kick out of it every time I shave with it!

Thank you, Evan.

It's alcohol based.

Continuing to impress Andrew.

Awesome shave and love the scent.

Gillette: Super Speed Black tip (X3) 1952.

Brush: Oscar 11 Blue and Clear handle w/ Omega Professional 10049 Boar
Soap: Reef Point Admiralty
Aftershave: Floid Blue

Good afternoon fellow shavers. Today unlike any other I shaved with the same equipment. If that makes sense I'm sorry. I'm not going to use the Oscar 11 Blue and Clear handle w/ Omega Professional 10049 Boar brush next shave. I am broken hearted! I love this brush. You will be happy to know that I have another work of art from Oscar 11.
Todays shave was nothing short of amazing. All equipment work well together. I still really enjoy the Reef Point Admiralty soap.
Today is my 4th shave with this blade. I went back and changed my last shave to (3). Xin loi.

Thank you Andrew! The tang can be the portion of the blade where it meets the shoulder of the blade or the metal part that sticks out past the pin which is sometimes called the monkey tail.

Thanks Joe! I love this scent as well.

Awesome shave Andrew!

Very nice shave, Evan! When I go ATG on stache, I tighten that area with a slightly open mouth. Doing this gives me a smooth surface to easily shave it.

Thanks Gary! It's been a fun time so far!

Thanks Jeff! Yes, especially when it comes to money. At one time, I was a full charge bookkeeper and a bank teller.

I went to my inbox and didn't see your message.

Great photo of fine tools my friend.

It's too bad Danny @Hembree hasn't been around in 5 months. I believe he would appreciate your generosity.

Every nice picture and setup.

Very nice color combo and wonderful shave Gary!

Thanks Evan! I have said it many times, I like and enjoy all my straight razors. They all have different qualities. Obviously, Mad Mad is my top favorite because of the shave I get from it and that she truly is a stunner. Everyone has their top favorite razor that gives them pure joy while shaving. It's one of the great things about this hobby.
