Good morning guys!

Straight shave #246
7/8 Henckel's Friodur
Semogue OC Super Badger
Stirling SS and AS
Dickenson's WH not pictured
Nivea ASB not pictured
Whiskers: 35 hrs

I decided to go with my Glastonbury soap again because I want to deep six it this year. The Semogue whipped up a nice, sheeny, creamy, slick lather that is to be expected with this soap. I only need two passes and minor touchup with the Friodur to give me a trouble-free near BBS shave. Usual postshave routine ending with the matching aftershave and my skin looks 15 yrs younger. Ok, maybe 10 and that is pushing it. Lol!
Did a headshave with Cremo and the G E Jones Shakesharp for a smooth cueball shave. I did not post pictures of this gear because it was a last minute decision. I will respond to all of your posts later because I have a men's breakfast this morning and afterwards, I am going to the gym. Have a great day guys!

Great shave and photo Blair. Even better news on your Father. Take care. I am keeping you guys in my prayers.

Thank you Danny.

Great looking shave and photo Evan. The razor looks fantastic .

Beautiful shave and photo Barry. I hope you enjoy your Saturday.

Fantastic photo & shave Dave. Love the "66".

Wonderful recap and photo Joe. I hope you have a great day.

Break through with the Tatara Nodachi this morning.


Stay tuned.

Brush: Whipped Dog Butterscotch 24 mm
Lather: Loose Screw Uncomfortably Numb (1508.5)
Aftershave: Stirling Sandalwood
Additional Care:

Day 5 of 6 of the Dovo Mini-Focus
Up early for a Saturday as I have to take my mother for her first COVID vaccination shot. Antony her fantastic shave with the Dovo Best. Three passes which lead to total smoothness.

Decide to give a dome shave a whirl. One pass with some minor buffing gave a nice shave without any mishaps. I may periodically do a dome shave, probably it will not be part of my daily routine, perhaps weekends only. The option is all mine.

Have a great day gentlemen.

Beautiful looking shave Dave. Awesome brush.

Beastmode! Should go to the gym in a fasting state, this way you burn fat reserves my friend.
Excellent shave.

Excellent shave lineup and photo Joe. Good luck with you Mother today. My Mom gets her second COVID shot on Monday.

Shave Stick & Aftershave

Happy Saturday Everyone. I am sticking with the Feather AS-D2 for a while longer. Let's just call it a mini focus. My package from Maggard Razor arrived with the Speick aftershave among other goodies so I just had to pull out the matching shave stick for today's shave. I love the fresh light herbal scent of Speick. Plus the stuff works well above its price point. I went with a three pass shave today, XTG followed by 2 ATG passes. I pulled out the alum block and really paid attention to skin stretching which cut down the neck buffing. The end result was a drama free BBS shave. I really love this razor. A splash of the Speick aftershave and I am off to visit my Mom for the day. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.

Gorgeous photo and shave Jim. Happy Saturday.
