    The Gillette Knack razor is a mild TTO, but three anxious-free passes gave me a clean,close, and smooth finish.

  11. Thanks Akhi!

    It came as a big shock to me that the Irisch Moos stick was discontinued because first the company who was making it was taken over by Maurer & Wirtz who’s the manufacturer of Tabac and honestly this stuff was almost exactly the same. Just the scent is different. A couple of the other soaps pop up every so often on E Bay but at meshiggeneh (crazy) prices.

    Friday's Cold Water Shave

    Cold Water Rinse
    Proraso White Shave Soap
    Jayaruh #4 High Mountain Badger
    Christy Safety Razor
    Personna Injector Blade
    CWR
    Humphrey's Witch Hazel
    Duru Cologne

    The Proraso White Shave Soap was face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #4 High Mountain Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Christy Safety Razor and the Personna Injector Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Duru Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

  15. Friday morning:

    Cool shower
    Yaqi 30mm Barber Pole
    Super Speed/Crystal day 9
    Bundubeard Impi SS
    Bundubeard Boomslang 1 ASB
    Mennen Skin Bracer AS Splash

    These Crystal blades are definitely fantastic - they’re so sharp and smooth as well as forgiving. The Impi soap from Bundubeard is a South African treasure - it’s glycerine based with a very nice coffee/fruity scent, its lather explodes off my brush, it’s so thick, rich with excellent blade glide, it’s mildly but pleasantly mentholated, and it leaves a really comfortable postshave feeling. The Boomslang 1 balm is extremely moisturizing, just a SMALL amount is needed, it’s also slightly cooling, and the scent pairs well with the Skin Bracer aftershave. Another three pass beauty of a BBS shave that was lots of fun!

    Wishing you all a great weekend - be well and stay safe![​IMG]

    Cold water shave:
    Prep = Proraso pre-shave Wood and Spice
    Cream/Soap = Woolly Wash Soapery: Night at the Pub
    Brush = Semogue Owners club
    Bowl = White plastic
    Razor = Tuckaway
    Blade = Parker (1)
    Passes = 3
    Post = Usual CWR, Alum, rinse, pat dry, Thayer’s rose petal
    ASB = L’Occitane
    ASL = VIBR
    Scent = Proraso Wood and spice cologne
    Damage = None

    The Proraso pre shave has a nice scent. Bit thick though as a pre-shave for my liking.

    I intended to lather directly over it rather than rinsing it off as I usually do, so I made the Woolly Wash Soapery a bit thinner than normal—too thin, in fact. It ended up dripping everywhere, which is why I needed three passes and not the usual two.

    This reinforces my view that a well-hydrated, but well-structured lather is indispensable to achieving a quality shave, though others may hold differing opinions ………

    All scented up for the Saturday ahead.

    Spring is in the air at last.

    Have a good day one and all…
