    The lather was rich and slick for the Lo Sorto to do it's job. This is one of my favorite slants and will stay in the den.................for now. I have another of my favorites on the way that I shouldn't have sold. It's well worn but I may leave it in it's vintage patina rather than re plate as I did the other I had. Yep for those that remember my Gratiot Krect Spiral Curve Slant, I have another coming to the den which kicked me out of the No Buy I was in. But back to the Lo Sorto. I actually preferred this shave to the Wunderbar that I had and it didn't disappoint. Thanks to Patrick for nudging me to get it out of the drawer for another outing and also pushing me over the edge to get the Krect that was in my watch list. A low ball bid was accepted and I got it for a good price. Topped off the post shave with the Spicebomb and I'm ready for the day. Enjoy your guys !!

    Awesome shave Dave! I'm excited to try mine out today. You may be out of the NB21 but we will welcome you with open arms in the BMS2021 thread. There are some familiar faces in there already and maybe more that will fall off the NB wagon as the sales start and the will weakens . Nothing to ashamed of. I would have bought that razor too if I were you . Seems like an attachment there .:)

    Thanks Patrick ! I feel no shame at all really. I do know there are those there that will make an issue of "falling off the wagon" and I don't want to feed those trolls or have my blood pressure raised by those that are brave only behind their keyboard's :D I'll swing thru and keep up with it and no doubt engage eventually :happy088:
    Thanks Clint

    It is indeed NOS Shulton, just without their box. However they are both full and smell awesome. thank you! It's always nice finding a deal on NOS when visiting Ebay. Not too often does this happen.

    Shavette Shave # 116

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Razor Retro Shavette
    Blade: Kai Captain Pro Titan Pro Touch MG
    Brush: Ever Ready 500
    Lather: Razorock X (1508.5)
    Aftershave: Razorock X
    Additional Care:
    Barbero Alum Block
    Thayer's Witch Hazel - Aloe Vera
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Super smooth and comfortable shavette shave this morning. Slowly working towards finishing off this soap. Thread passes worked like a charm. No issues.
    The blade is from a sample order I received from “Try A Blade”. The order included the Schlick Pro-30, Feather Pro Super and the Kai Captain Pro Titan. I have used all three. Each perform extremely well. I guess at some point when I finish the sample packet, I have two additional blades to work through, I will decide which to purchase.

    Feel free to weigh in your thoughts. Jeff, @jgreenepa?

    Have a great day gentlemen.
