Happy Sunday Everyone! We had a rainy stormy Saturday here in the ATL. Swati and I dog sat Cody, Maya's retired racing greyhound. Cody is not a fan of thunder at all so he spent most of the night hiding in my closet. Greyson, my whippet kept checking on him. Altogether it made for a long night for me. I ended up having a dram of some good Irish Whiskey. The shave this morning was a welcome face freeze. I think Maya and I will take the boys out for a walk in park later this afternoon. Take care and have a great day. ​

cool torga Clint.do you like the short loft on it?great face scrub imo..

+1

I like the Torga pretty well Gary. The short loft is fine and I like the scrub as well. I just tend to use brushes with bigger knots.

If ever there was stank to overspray and share with the county..... I agree Aoud Cuir D'Arabie.

After a weekend using some soap variety it is back to the 3017, Razo Rock. I am using scooping soap out instead of loading directly, delaying the donut of death. The big Art razor is edge is falling off a little bit so, it will visit the pasted strops before it is back in the rotation. Wishing everyone a happy and productive week.

good morning gents
another fine waves work shave
changing out the post shave products/razors/brushes keeps this 3017 tolerable.
waves has a nice generic blue scent to it,that has lasted all this time.
fine lathers also,just seemed better when it was new.or not ,or who knows..
either way ,it's here till it's gone,then back to the usual..
smooth 2 passer as per the norm with this fine aristocrat
i love the flat baseplate design with the hidden safety bar.
lots of weight,nice balance.
rr blue to finish.a close clone to floid blue as per the description
awesome
have a fine monday everyone

Thank you Joseph. The bowl is a gift from Swati. I’ve loaded it up for “Fast & Loose” lathering

ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~Simpson "The Duke"~~Gillette New LC/Voskhod~~Lavande 44 by Rania J.
A shave fit for a Duke.
The Lavande 44 is a stunning, complex, lavender scent. One of my favs.​

sorry i missed that.what a cool bowl.

fine New LC Joseph.is it an early no patent Federal set razor or a reissue version?

I don't know...

Thank you Gary. The bowl real allows me to tear into the soap using @Primotenore patented "Fast & Loose" lather method.

an early eample will have the gillette logo and " made in usa".that would be a federal set type razor or early 1930s.if it has logo,made in.. and patent #'s it's the reissue 1934 and newer.no pun intended.

note the smaller apperature/indent wher the handle seats also.

later version with patent #'s and larger indent.
