you should see Jrdelgado new tractors. https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/tractor.64596/

they are my only real indulgences..my blue collar gillettes are my favorites..

I’m in...OCtober is a fave focus for sure! I’ll focus on my DE OCs as a few of the SE versions just got a run. As well, there are a few soaps I’ll continue to try and get through. Looking forward to the month.

Sorry guys! I don't own any OC razors. It will be an Optional October for me. I will have the option to choose any razor in my den for one, two or three shaves in a row.

Tomorrow I’ll open the month with probably my favorite French Open Comb in my Den, my NOS LaResche 51 for my noggin:

and my newly arrived C-Mon Special for my mug:

You are going to love your C-Mon Special, Jeff! They can get wicked sharp!

Greetings,

Starting October off in style with a face & head shave using my vintage Gillette tech paired together with the Indian Gillette 7'O Clock SP which has excelled itself feeling smooth and efficient with each shave throughout the week.
The design of both the flat bottom & ball end techs seems to hold the blade more rigidly making both vintage ladies a joy shave with.A pleasurable near BBS face & head shave with no errors to report...Finishing to the shave off with a generous dollop of Aloe Vera Gel.

My face & precious swede are feeling super smooth & smelling of old school divine goodness.

Stay safe, and enjoy your Day ladies & gentlemen.

My name is Barry. Thanks again Gary.

When you need to help mechanics, you use it in superlathering.
When you need to help smell, do you use it in superfragrancing?

Most wonderful shave.

jist finished up a rocking SEptember and the final September of my work career. Wonderful on both counts. Yes, the countdown has begun.

For the focus of this month, I will use my OC razors during the weeekdays and leave the weekends to the others in my den.

I have been looking forward to using Darkfall since mid September when I began my samples’ shaves. This soap and splash is just awesome. I missed out on obtaining the EdT this past weekend as it sold out quickly.

Excellent three pass, close shave but I will have to bin the blade as it was the fifth shave. Smelling good! Here’s’s to a fun OCtober.

Good morning!

Excellent shave to start the month! Three passes for near BBS. Nearly silent alum.

Have a great day!

Enjoy your opener! In the spirit of harmony I’ll not comment on your soap/AS choice.

That's what I call a "non-comment comment".

Another great shave, PierPaolo! Meisner is good stuff. Used it years ago with SWMBO #1 who appreciated it.

Great post, Barry.

Talk about setting the bar high! Well done, James.

Love the look of that straight!

Excellent shaves, gentlemen!

Bravo, Pierpaolo. Sono curioso del sapone da barba...
