  1. Nice, Gus. I didn't know that Frank sells brushes. Do you know if he makes them or is he just the middle-man?

  3. Sunday:

    hot shower with Castelbel Bergamot & Tobacco bar soap
    ShaveSecret PSO
    Gillette Senator 2+ passes
    Racer Super Stainless (2)
    Maggard Tobacco & Leather soap in a warm bowl
    Ever-Ready 150 boar
    Thayers Cucumber WH
    Old Spice Leather A/S
    Old Spice Leather cologne

    A very nice Sunday morning shave today.

    When I first started wet shaving and especially when I experimented with straight razors I discovered the benefits of skin stretching. As I shaved this morning I realized that I'm getting so good at it that by this time next year I should be able to pull my cheeks up over my eyeballs.

    Have a great day and a great week everyone.

    Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #4 High Mtn. Badger
    1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Lucky Tiger AS

    The De Vergulde Hand Shaving Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #4 High Mtn. Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the 1902 Kampfe Brothers/Star Lather Catcher razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Lucky Tiger AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...
  9. Morning Primo. The brush is produced for him by Knothead Brushworks. The brush & stand are available separately or as a combo directly from Ethos Grooming. I just happened to be lucky and acquired one of the first 10 produced for a Limited Edition package of the Dragonsbeard V2 Collection.

    Happy shaves, Primo.... :eatdrink047:

    They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old,
    Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
    At the going down of the sun, and in the morning,
    We will remember them.

  11. It is not up to me...
    I am as upset as you are stupefied, Gus.
    Perhaps...if I had got up earlier, I would have found a more decent day: tonight there was a splendid fog!

  14. Thank you Joseph.

    Not all of it: mostrly some Northern regions.
    Here they cannot (or refuse to) enforce law and can't get rid of bureucracy, so everything is compliacted and useless...

    I should have bought an island on the Alps when I had the chance to...
  15. Haven’t seen you around in a few months. Thanks for posting.
    Hope all is well.

  16. Very nice. I have two of Frank's soaps and that's going to do it for me. Honestly, while they are good, they are too soft for my tastes.

  19. I have what used to be called ‘Maximo Gomez Cuba’ by the old owners. It is now just called Maximo and is truly one of my all time favourite scents. A beautiful Tobacco
    & Citrus.
