  1. After the usual 1-2 minute hot towel prep:

    Shavemac 22mm silvertip
    fatboy/Feather
    Penhaligons Racquets SC
    Lucky Tiger AS
    TGQ 'Cavendish Black' extrait

    Nice getting back to one of my favorite razor/blade combos. This set up gives me a close and very comfortable shave.....can't even feel the blade at all on my face(which I like).

    This is the only razor that the Feather blade matches up with perfectly. No idea why, but it's true sure enough.

    BBS results,

    Martin

    Thursday: Parker 91r razor / Laser Ultra blade / Lord Emofresh SC / Generic Badger brush / Barbasol Brisk Aftershave

    Moved the Laser blade to the more aggressive Parker razor and got a very nice shave. Smooth and comfortable.

    DAY.

    Wash: Michael's Wool Fat
    Razor: Merkur Long Handle
    Blade: Grecian Beesh
    Soap: Michael's Wool Fat
    Brush: Omega 10077 Hog
    Splash: Pinaud Clubdawg
    Finish: Y.S.L. L'Mang EdT.

    ...

    Everyone's citing MWF is his favorite SS, so I went to the very bottom of my shaving stash to excavate it. I think it's quite good but not nearly so much so as it's made out to be. I'll brick-and-mortar-appropriate Cade, which comes in that remarkable tin.

    Mitchell's dish may be ceramic but that don't make it comely.

    BIC's pronounced "Beesh."

    Thursday

    Razor: Merkur Progress on 3.0
    Blade: Super Iridium
    Brush: Shavemac
    Pre-Shave: Kell's Original Pre-Shave Soap (unscented)
    Soap: Tabac
    A/S: Trumper Marlborough (Thanks Big Rich)

    The Tabac produced its usual wonderful lather and the Progress with a new Super Iridium blade produced an outstanding shave. I finished the shave with some recently acquired Trumper Marlborough. It is hard to describe the scent but, it is very pleasant and should not offend anyone.

    A label snob at that.

    This morning I lathered Proraso soap with a 1 3 0 5 boar brush, shaved the whiskers off with a goldedge dubl duck that seems to be losing its edge a bit... Maybe will paint it green this weekend if time permits

    :D

    The GG Lime Yuzu soap has performed poorly, I think it's a defective soap, or it had been a problem with this puck,....but I don't understand that the lifespan of lather is 20 seconds.......in this way I have to change to a Cible SC, that let me finish the shave

    Damnnnnnnnn--I forgot today was supposed to be a Grandpa Shave. OK, I'll do it tomorrow, or Sunday. The Egyptian Palmolive Menthol cream is absolutely frigid, in fact it's just as cold as the Italian Mentholated version. ;) :D
