Great shave my friend!

I know Tamara very well - it’s so cheap in Egypt and I find it has a very nice scent which to me is minty and soapy. It lathers great and it leaves a comfortable postshave feeling.

Tuesday morning’s Grand Freeze:

Stirling Mentholated Pre Shave Soap
Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
Junjie/Wilkinson Sword day 8
MSC Peppermint Latte SS
Prep ASB
MSC Peppermint Latte AS Splash

As I’ve said many times in the past Fernando’s soaps and aftershaves are treasures. His Peppermint Latte has such a beautiful scent - it’s a perfectly matched blend of peppermint and espresso coffee. The soap is tallow based, the lather is so easy to work up, it gets thicker and thicker, it has so much slickness, there’s an awesome menthol kick, and the skincare is perfect. The Prep worked its wonderful soothing, moisturizing, and cooling magic, while the Peppermint Latte aftershave gave me its freezing cold menthol goodness as well as its lovely scent. Three passes knocked off my rough stubble and left me mega BBS!

Enjoy your day and your shaves - be well and safe!

SOTD TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 17, 2022

This morning’s shave was close and comfortable. The mug shave featured the first Japanese razor I ever shaved with several years ago, the Tanifuji Airi 11/16 which started me down the Japanese razor rabbit hole. “Tanifuji Fukutaro”, born in 1894, was the first to start manufacturing western style Japanese straight razors. In 1918, he started his razor manufacturing company in Sumido-ku using Japanese traditional techniques and skills to build his razors with a large number of cutlery craftsman. His domestically produced western style razors using imported Swedish silver steel were perceived as sharper and superior to imported western style razors.

The manufacturing methods employed traditional Japanese sword-making technique and many of his blade shapes reflected this approach as my Tanifuji Airi razor does. Many well known Japanese razors like, Airi, Baba, Cape, Nichiri and Spalding to name a few were actually made by Mr. Tanifuji. With the rise of safety razor usage after WWII, he sold his blade manufacturing machinery to Mr. Iwasaki of Sanjo Works in the early 1950’s, although he continued to make the scales for all Iwasaki western razors until he retired in 1973. He passed away in 1990 at age 96.

The three pass mug shave this morning with my Tanifuji Airi 11/16, as my UK shave brother, Barry (@palmolive fox), would say, was “divine”. I also really enjoy my noggin shaves with the 2011 R41 which sits on a meaty Weber bulldog handle! The razor feels hefty and well balanced. Two ATG passes with a loaded Sharp Star blade left your happy narrator delightfully smooth from noggin to neck.

RAZOR: Tanifuji Airi 11/16 (Mug), 2011 Muhle R41 ( Dome)
BLADE: Sharp Star (Dome)
PREP: Cold water rinse followed by a heavy scrub with Argan Oil
BRUSH: MrEE LE #007 Knurled Aluminum Handled Hybrid Knot
SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by a rinse with Humphreys WH. Finished with Canoe Original EdT Splash.

thank you Barry.
