Excellent shave and photo Jason. I wish Simpson would take the CH2 knot and but it in a Captain sized handle.
Quick post on recent gear. Stirling 'Aggressive' w/EJ handle. One up&out Personna Blue Feather AS/D2 w/Feather (1), always wanted one of these. Thanks for the radar alert Joseph. Polished Stainless Supply w/Proline (3). Figured I should do at least 1 shave this month 'on theme'. Different stuff, different styles, near indistinguishable results. Fun. Best to all.
I'm with you on scents, Bruce. I don't have a discerning schnoz, either. Stuff either smells good or bad. I can smell bacon cooking from 1000 yards away, though. Extra crispy, please. I cruise the Frangrantica forum every so often to get ideas for new colognes. The gist of all that is I'm an old man that likes old man scents. If I stick with @Primotenore's recommendations, I should be OK. Seriously, I get a lot of good ideas on scents here from my fellow old men and honorary old men like @MrDaniel's and @myles wilson. Fragrantica discussions can be quite entertaining and downright strange at times. I guess it would be like what most normal guys think when they happen upon a shaving forum.
