    You're like me on the passes...sometimes I feel it was a good enough shave after the one, but I do another anyway.

    Great Sunday shave, Jeff! I have never had a bad shave with my Herder. They are truly remarkable razors.

    If he wants to borrow it, then he can. I am willing to make the sacrifice and use my R102, my Schick E2, my Fatboy or my 2 Rockwells to shave my dome.

    I always do at least 2 passes regardless of the razor. However, if I want a BBS shave with a DE, then I sometimes need that third pass.

    Thanks, Jeff.
    If you are referring to the soap, it has a healthy scent. The ASB actually is the same scent, but doesn't have much staying power.

    Well, you're right...I can't read your mind or writing style. By the way, most of my matchings of soaps&A.S. involve what you PIFed me earlier.

    DE Shave # 356 - Maternal Grandfather Tribute Shave

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Gillette SS Red Tip TTO (1959 E-1)
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    Brush: Silver Blue
    Lather: Stirling Spice
    Aftershave: B & M Reserve Spice
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Alum Block
    Nivea Cool Balm
    Thayer’s Witch Hazel - Original

    I had a very busy day entertaining. However, I made sure I started my day with a shave that my grandfather would have loved. Today is his birthday. He would have been 108.

    Old Spice is the scent that I would remember him wearing most of the time. Sometimes he would throw on a spritz of Aramis.

    Naturally, I reached for. My Stirling Spice/B & M Reserve Spice combination to bring me down memory lane. My grandfather would always use a DE, hence, my birth year Red Tip.

    Three passes is my norm. I do no believe my grandfather took the time to do a three pass even though his beard was heavier than mine.

    The end result was a super smooth shave and a get smell for part of the day.

    Have a great day gentlemen.
