  4. Thank you very much!

    Such a beautiful shot! And a great tribute to your father. I get it.

    Thank you sir. My SOTD photos have been looking the same to me lately, but I love the gear.

    Lather Catcher Sunday's Shave
    zcws.jpg

    Cold Water Rinse
    START Shave Cream
    Jayaruh #403 Synthetic
    Ever-Ready Lather Catcher
    Personna GEM SS PTFE
    CWR
    Aqua Velva Musk

    The START Shave Cream lathered well with Jayaruh #403 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Ever-Ready Lather Catcher with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  6. Wow. What a beautiful razor! The vintage se designs are absolutely fascinating. How old is it?

  10. Right in the middle of the corn fields!
    Very convenient in case one forgets to go food shopping! :D

    I moved here over twenty years ago and never regretted it.
    Should I miss sophisticated shops, fancy restaurants or just wanted to see what I breathe, Milan is less than an hour drive.

    And in this silence I can hear the chirping of the blade in... Progress! ;)

    Thank you Favourite Uncle!

  12. These are anniversaries that bring sadness...
    Cheer up, Thorsten!

  13. O&C scent is OK.
    It's the Valobra series that's scentless to me!

    Thank you, though, for suggestion.

  16. Valobra made Czech & Speake, as well as the original, tallow Art of Shaving soaps. My Valobra brands, Patchouly and Fougère, are scent powerhouses.

  19. Never smelled them.
    As I said, among the ones I tried, no one had any scent: the almpond brick and the menthol one (bought by mistake) and the stick, supposedly Cologne.

    Happy yours do have a scent!
  20. Thank you, gentlemen. :)
