Happy Saturday Everyone. I spend several hours yesterday and all day today pressure washing my walkway and driveway. My back is killing me. The glacial soap and aftershave were welcome after the heat. Take care and have a great day. ​

Thank you Charlie. I think the Cobra is a very cool looking razor as well.

The pressure washing needed to be done. I will wash the house another weekend.

Mike's Bay Rum~~Simpson CH2 Synthetic Badger~~2011 Mühle R41/Weber Bulldog/Sharp Star~~Dominica Bay Rum

Just got back from a camping trip. Took the XPEC and finished it off.
Gotta look good when "glamping".

I bowl-lathered some of the best goo in a long time. The Mike's soap is so good.
Speaking of good, the R41 is a desert island razor---especially when loaded with a Sharp Star.
Dominica Bay Rum for the flourishing finish.
​

Congrats Joseph.

Happy Monday. I have never really used a mentholated soap on a regular basis. However, I can now understand what all the fuss is about. The each morning is very nice. Take care and have a great day. ​

I’d forgotten about the old “blood on steel” custom soap. I must not have loved the scent either since I haven’t seen that tub in a long time. I’m guessing I PIF’d it or sent it out as a Shavey award.
Also, FWIW, I have not posted much lately, as life seems to be a series of brutal tests at the moment, but I am lurking in the background and enjoying watching (in a non-creepy kind of way…)

It’s good to hear from you Randy. Life does seem to come all at once. I hope things get better for you soon.

Happy Tuesday Everyone. I must say I am destroying this soap with @Primotenore patented "Fast & Loose" lathering method. Thus far I have used used 51 grams of the 126 grams of soap in 12 shaves. This soap will be sunk very soon. Take care and have a great day ​

Happy Wednesday Everyone. The Feather AS-D2 is often maligned for being to "mild". While the razor does have a narrow sweet spot, it will deliver a stellar shave when I do my part. Take care and have a wonderful day. ​

I've decided to flip one, maybe two, soaps this week, as there just isn't enough left for me to do a decent shave in each. It isn't quite a Titanic for them, but close enough for my standards. I expecr to reorder them in the fall&winter anyway, as I enjoyed them. More details later.

@wristwatchb, I've determined that the Ukrainian soap you sent has very little scent to it, thus I will use it with any A.S.(since it came from you I'll be a nice man and not use Clubman-course it doesn't matter, as I have lots of barbershop soap anyway).

I hate to as well. Perhaps I'll take the advice of a gentleman here who scoops it out from the circumference of the puck to the center, thus making it easier to load.

flip as in throw away?

Yes. I guess that's becoming confusing when I say that Doc Ezlovan "flipped in" a free soap with his orders. What I mean is I "flip" something into the trash.
