Since this is a plastic tub 'FNL lathering' seemed safe. Using large brushes and FNL lathering worked, the donut of death has appeared. First I attacked it with a large Shavemac and then the big daddy Kent 12. I went through my back up non-straight razor drawer so you will be seeing some razors that have been absent for a while. Monday feather my Rocnel G, a fine shaver and my favorite for GEM blades. Tuesday featured an 8/8 Fridour that looks small next to the big BK12. For our stank aficianodos I went with Dior Ambre Nuit and the Ambre Russe by Parfun d'Empire.

Tuesday, May 28 ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~Simpson CH2~~1958 D3 Gillette Adjustable~~Thor's Hammer Bay Rum w/Lime I am running out of things to say about this soap---just as I am running out of this soap, with which to shave. Today or tomorrow the Death Knell will toll.
May 29, 2024 High Proof Razor Tatra Alpha Outlaw Master Soap Creations Frosted Bay Rum Barberry Coast Bay Rum Aftershave Happy Wednesday Everyone. I had to change the blade from the Tatra to a 7 O'clock Yellow after the first stroke. The Tatra was tugging so badly it was impossible to continue the shave. Once that issue was addressed the shave continued without drama. The High Proof Razor takes all the good things of the OneBlade and does away with the Feather FHS blades. I do enjoy using this razor. Take care and have a great day.

May 31, 2024 High Proof Razor Gillette 7 O’clock Yellow Rubberset 400 #3 Master Soap Creations Frosted Bay Rum Dehn El Oud Malaki Happy Friday Everyone! The software side of this morning's shave was fantastic. I think I pushed the blade 1 shave too far resulting in a shave that was not as smooth or as close as the shave yesterday. Lesson learned, 2 shaves per 1/2 blade and done on this razor. The Oud has left me smelling fantastic even if I am working alone from home. Take are and have a great day.

Friday, May 31 Chiseled Face Civet~~Kent BK8~~1947 Gillette Super-Speed/Voskhod~~Amouage Gold This shave is dedicated to @Keithmax Master Enabler and Stank-Master Extraordinaire. My first Kent and it's a beaut. Not floppy at all. Loose knot-yes. Excellent flow-thru. Soft as a bunny. The Civet soap was a gift from our S.Korean friend. Fine product. Finished with a stank that---hopefully, Keith would approve of, Amouage Gold. Their very first foray into stanks.
