TUESDAY'S SHAVE Perfumed by: Douglas Smythe Razor - Phoenix Artisan Accoutrements - Double Open Comb Ascension (316L Stainless Steel Adjustable) (Fully Screwed Down) Blade - *6th Shave Shaving Soap - La Tierra Mojada Aftershave/Cologne - La Tierra Mojada The scent on this one is starting to grow on me. It's not something that I liked at first but there is an addictive quality to this scent that is hard to explain. I enjoy it. To me it smells like Sour, Wet, Metal & Earth. The art on the products and the scent seem to fit. It's like an over-grown, decaying/abandoned industrial site that is being rained on.

Tuesday August 24, 2021 Razor: Eagle Improved Blade: MODIFIED Gem SS (1) Brush: Eagle Boar Soap: Stirling "Blood on Steel" AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70 AS 2: CHH Tobacco Fragrance: Mr Burberry Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1021 So this is a razor set I acquired recently and as it was inbound was told by Greg and Jim that it would need blade modifications and he explained you need to remove the Spine from a Gem Single Edge blade and then shorten the blade before getting it into the spine again. That gave me the direction I needed and was all set as mine was coming with an original blade for size comparison. So here's the comparison in size and the metal snips I used. And the final product to shave with. The shave was very mild to me. More so than the Star and Gems I've been using but gave a good close shave. My preference would still be the Star Super Six razor and the ones in that bunch. Just the right amount of blade feel to find the angle better that this one was lacking. None the less it was a great shave from another cool piece of by gone days. Have a great Tuesday everyone !!

Tuesday morning’s Grand Freeze: Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole Super Speed/Gillette day 7 Master Soap Creations Frosted Spearmint SS Prep ASB Master Splash Creations Frosted Spearmint AS Splash Wow, was this ever a delightful shave and the scent filled my bathroom. The soap lathers beautifully, the menthol sensation is of medium strength, and the postshave feeling is comfortable. The Prep really needs no description, and the Frosted Spearmint aftershave has the same lovely scent as the soap and it freezes like Siberia in midwinter. No way could I be any smoother!
