What a great soap and scent…alas, not a contender for the next focus.
The Barbasol kept my attention, as always.

That is a wonderful soap and scent.

IMHO, When SV gets it right, they really get it right.

You just be you, it will happen…

Late post, but a beautiful shave.
I am getting comfortable with the not-so-ergonomic Darwin handle.
The Wolfman has some teeth, so proper angle is priority-one.​

The Wolfman is a work of art. Always enjoy seeing it in your posts.

Everything I've heard about SV soaps has been great. I may grab one sometime to see what all the fuss is about.

Interestingly, I've given several SV pucks away to my Bride's docs. Got 'em all started using DE razors over the past few years and wanted their starter kit to include a fancy soap. (In other words, I didn't want to share my precious Tabac pucks with them.)

Today’s soap is the first audition for the next 3017. Can’t remember the last time I used it. A decent lather…user error in not loading enough product today. Verdict: A real contender for the focus, but a lot of product left.

Friday at last, Friday at last. Just one more hell day on Monday. I got to say I am really like the of this soap and aftershave. Take care and have a great day. ​

You snagged the coolest @MrEE brush, Jason. I have always admired 007. It looks extra cool parked in the vintage Old Spice mug.

I like it too, but I don’t think you could go wrong with any of the anodized colours he made. I hope Evan is doing well, I haven’t heard from him in years.

XPEC~~Simpson T3~~Gillette Pre-War USA Tech/Personna 74~~Thor's Bay Rum w/Lime
This modest Tech, loaded with a fantastic blade, gave a very close and comfortable shave.​

Good thinking.

XPEC~~Simpson "Rover"~~Feather AS-D2/Personna 74~~Vintage Aqua Velva
I have made a serious dent in the XPEC. I don't XPEC it to last out the month.
Still rockin' the Personna 74. These blades have some real longevity.
Vintage AV for the finish.​

For the Bay Rum fans, Mike's has it in stock. IMO, one of THE best Bay Rum shaving soaps available.

Thank you Joseph.....will look into this.
