    Thanks, Patrick!
    After working 28 out of the last 36 hours I was really dragging at quiting time yesterday. I got a few more hours of sleep last night so I should be good today.

    Razor: Double Duck Twin Duck Special #1
    Brush: Jayaruh 337 with Omega #49 Boar
    Lather: Declaration Grooming/Chatillon Lux Lamplight Penance
    Aftershave: Chatillon Lux Lamplight Penance Toner
    Additional Care:
    Barbero Alum Block
    Thayer's Witch Hazel - Aloe Vera

    I have not used this soap/toner in 2020. Honestly, I should more often. It is a fabulous scent and as with all of my DG/CL soaps it delivers a phenomenally slick lather.
    My only concern, since is a very long lasting scent, is the aspect of mask wearing throughout the day.
    I had a superb effortless shave in all aspects. The DD easily did it’s job. I love the feel on the face of the CL toner.

    Have a great TGIF gentlemen.

    A huge shout out to Jaco from bundubeard for the suprise mail call! Looks like i have some new stuff to review. 1x bundubeard Rooi Afrikaner (shave stick prototype)
    1x feather carbon steel blade pack(seikans)
    1x "mystery soap" but after using it for todays shave i can say it has a fantastic peppermint crisp scent and light menthol, and it lathers amazingly! It also includes colloidal silver in the mix.[​IMG]

    Good morning all shavers.
    Used a creation of Ryan @PLANofMAN .
    A Devette slant.
    Got a great 3 pass head, 3 pass face shave this morning.
    One bump on the neck that just won't go away, got grazed again and one that appeared overnight.
    Not much leakage but there they are.
    Other than that I'm clean, smooth and loving the results.
    I'll use this little tool a few days.
    Very nice!

    If you thinks, you needs, safety bars, on your safety razors, you needs, to rethinks, your position.
    This razor has an infinite gap and plenty of blade exposure.
    No need for the safety bar or teeth as the case may be.
    I've learned a lot the past few days by using open blade DE razors or Devette razors.
    So IMHO (in my humble opinion)
    If your shaves are rough, don't blame the razor or the blade.
    Well... unless the blade is dull.
    Look in the mirror and get into your razor zen.
    Ride the cap, lighten up the pressure...Then, shave.
    If I can do it......
    Anyone, and I mean anyone, can!
    Good luck!
    Thanks for all who post here, helping me on my journey.
    Enjoy!

    Happy Friday everyone. Change of hardware for the next several days with the Gillette New SC and the Heritage Dubl Duck. I picked up this SC from @Primotenore during his den clearing. It looks as great as it shaves. The Dubl Duck loaded and lathered the MWF with ease. I have found that I get better results with MWF if I put a tablespoon of warm water on the puck while I shower. Three passes and touch ups ended with the baby firmly in hand. A splash of Grand Bay Rum aftershave and I am ready for the day. I hope everyone has a Fantastic Friday
