good morning gents..more off the cuff shaving..this time the 60s vintage merkur OC..nacet blade ,JR#282 zebrawood 400 badger built a fabulously scented ethos/oleo dragonsbeard lather..my third and final sample from our Dave..2+ pass near bbs ,no drame ..clubman whisky woods to finish..awesome..have a fine saturday everyone..
I believe it was discontinued, Jim. The few still in the pipeline are commanding much higher prices. Same with the SARBs. The price of my SARB033 has more than doubled in the past year. The SKX011J1 is a great watch, by the way. Orange is a classic dial color for Seiko divers. You've got an ideal rotation of JDM Seikos.
I ended up having to dial it up to a 7, usually most guys dial to a 3-5 range but voskhods are very mild blades. Overall shave was fairly nice, I nicked myself a few times switching up the level of aggressiveness to find a comfortable level but that was to be expected.
Congratulations, Myles! Enjoy the new Fatboy and your Tabac. Even though I’m not a fan of the odor, there’s no arguing its lathering capability! Enjoy both of your new acquisitions!
Great information, Charlie! Thanks! All four of my Seikos are on the list. Shows how old I'm getting. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
I have to put it on 9 for all my passes. Old man whiskers are tough! Lol! You didn't mention how Tabac lathered for you.
Oh sorry I should have explained more. yea the tabac lather'd excellent however I should make the next lather a little thinner. The blade kept getting clogged and I started getting flashbacks of my cartridge razor days.
