    Have Friday Eve! Wow what a week. Since I really like the looks of the MdC soaps in a wooden bowl, I decided to transfer mine to a wooden bowl. Thus far I am making good progress on the MdC. Based on my previous experience with the MdC original last year this one should go down quicker than the Fat did.
  4. Very nice, Clint. Did you ever have one of the MdC 'Brain Bowls' in wood? I can't remember.
  5. It is good to be home. I have to admit, I'm getting to an age where travel (especially for work) seems to be a complete hassle.
  6. Thank you Jason. I have not had one of the Brain Bowls. I’ve been tempted many times. Including earlier this week

    That's a pretty big donut hole.
    Kept a much shallower angle with the GC and it seemed happier. So did my skin.
  9. I will be posting shortly.

    MdC is a bold choice for 3017, MdC Fougère is a favorite of mine.

    Pierre Cardin is a classic!

    Inspiration for my next 3017.

    Today is Childrens Day in Korea so I have Friday off. This shave completes one 3017 and starts a new one. Today was the swan song for the Small Batch Shave Tonic, the heavens cried for the last shave. Fortunately my watch sensie gifted me the back up. Today is the first day of my new target, AoS Tallow. A legend of wetshaving this soap performs great for me. It is an unscented version so often I combine it with a more fragrant soap.
  11. At least this puck is already have way done. I’m with you on the Fougère scent.

    After ‘seeing’ the dark green bottom of the tub the past few days, I have finally broken through and started a donut hole. Still a long way from completion, but an easy focus so far.

    Happy Friday Everyone! It has been a busy but productive day thus far. Unfortunately, I will be working at least part of the day tomorrow. The MdC continues to disappear at a good pace of around 2 grams per shave. If that pace continues this one will be over in good time. Have a great day gents.

    Late on posting this shave.
    Fresh Gillette Platinum in the Super-Speed.
    The Zenith is breaking in nicely. I am going to stick with this brush for the duration of the 3017.

    The CH2 Synthetic aka the "Soap Destroyer" loaded and lathered the MdC with ease. The Speick should be done and dusted soon. Overall it was a fantastic shave to start the day. ​
