    That's great advice, Myles. This is a good video tutorial as well.

    Great shave, Barry! I agree that Schafmilch is good stuff! I was introduced to it by our own master enabler, Andrew (@Droo78), and have found it to be a solid shave soap with a decent post shave feel, not up to MWF’s level, but then again, I’ve yet to find a soap as good, and I’ve been wet shaving with DE’s since many of our current crew were in nappies! :)

    Forget about the shave, Joe! Where can I get a shirt and tie like yours? And does it come in pink?!?

    W&S was the first I tryed.
    But the scent is too strong for me.
    Azur Lime is fresh, and fine.

    SOTD SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 29, 2020

    There really is something revivifying about a great shave! Trying to sleep sitting up with broken ribs is not easy, but despite that, this cold, beautiful, sunny morning set the stage for the shave to follow! I selected my favorite, and probably my oldest straight razor, the Manhattan Cutlery 13/16 for the mug shave and the Tom White repaired Schick F Type for the dome.

    The MrEE #007 Knurled Aluminum Hybrid Knot brush easily created the two types of MWF lather I like for my shaves - a thin, slick lather for the mug and a nice thick yogurty lather for the noggin. I do love shaving with the Manhattan Cutlery 13/16 Stubtail. Three slow, luxurious (WTG, ATG, XTG) passes with this magical stubtail left me velveteen smooth. I truly feel like a caretaker for this 200 yr old beauty! It always takes exquisite care of me. My son, Ben, shaved with it and shares my opinion. He’ll be the next caretaker.

    When I was first gifted this old, somewhat battered Schick F Type by my neighbor, the razor was non-functional. The very able administrations of TSD’s Tom White (@twhite) restored its function. My two pass (ATG, ATG) dome shave with it was close and very comfortable! And as I said earlier, the total shave, both mug and dome, almost made me forget about my broken ribs! I feel cool, clean, refreshed and velveteen!

    RAZOR: Manhattan Cutlery 13/16 Stubtail (Mug), Schick F Type (Dome)
    BLADE: Schick Proline B-20 Injector
    PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a scrub with Argan Oil
    BRUSH: MrEE Knurled Aluminum Hybrid Knot
    SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
    POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Humphreys Lilac WH. Finished with Osage Rub and Pre de Provence Bergamot & Thyme Balm.
