I am interested in the Wolfman OC razor. What do you think of the Wolfman OC? How does it compare to other razors that you use?
03/13/15 Prep – MR GLO Razor – Gillette New Long Comb Blade – Persona Lab Blue (3) Brush – RV with TGN Finest Lather – MdC Post - Witch Hazel and Dove AS Balm Very good 2 and 1/2 pass shave this morning. The New LC continues to deliver consistently good shaves with no irritation. As usual the MdC soap does not disappoint. Happy Friday and have a great weekend.

3/13/2015 Lucky Friday the 13th Prep: Hot shower with Nivea Face Wash with menthol, home made PSO Razor: GE Jones Shake Sharp, Friodur Inox 70 1/2 straight razor Blade: Pol Silver Super Iridium (4) Brush: Vie Long Horse Hair Soap: Cella After: Home made ASB, Aqua Velva Musk after shave Cologne: Prada - Amber Pour Homme Intense It is Friday the 13th and it is looking more and more like spring. The Vie Long brush did a great job turning the Cella into a wonderful lather. The lather was thick and slick. The Shake Sharp and the Friodur did a good job knocking down the stubble. The AV brought some protection and the Prada will have me smelling great all day long. All in all, it was a 2 pass Darn Fine Shave. Have a blessed day!
Hey Neighbor! James from Wolfman is a great person to work with. He modified mine and made the blade gap slightly bigger. I have been shaving with my Mongoose and Progress lately and had enjoyed shaving with my Progress set at 3 not too mild but not too aggressive that perfect feeling where the blade slices of the hair so well that a 2nd pass is barely needed but not too aggressive where you get nicks or weepers. That's where the Wolfman OC is at. First shave this morning with it and was happy with the aggressiveness of it. Beautiful razor, James makes great razors. Hope this helps!!! Jesse
Thanks so much. I am really looking to add a very nice stainless OC razor to go with the Goose. Did you shave with it before James modified the razor? Sorry to ask so many questions but there is just not a lot of information on these razors since they are so new.
No worries that's why we have the Den for to gather knowledge. I have not shaved with one of his razors til this morning. I had emailed him about the availability and the question of aggressiveness came up and I describe how I like my razors and he suggested a wider blade gap. The regular Open Combs are a tad milder from what I understood.
Schick I2 razor Personna blade FS Best brush Williams SS Osage Rub/Witch Hazel/Sage mix M&L Florida Water Cologne Another dandy Williams shave. The FS Best brush made a fantastic lather and now I'm ready to go
Thanks so much. I will email James and see about getting on the list for one of his future production runs. Have a great weekend.

13 mar 2015 Soap - Maggards London Barbershop Brush - WD Silvertip 24/50 Razor - Merkur 34C Blade - Ladas (3) AS - Pinaud Clubman Vanilla Couple of new items today. First the soap. The good: Lathered easily and provided good protection. The bad: The smell. At first it was OK, not bad not good but by the third pass I became nauseated by the aroma....it was either hurry up and finish and hopefully not get sick, or wash it off ...I hurried and finished. So sadly, although the performance is good, the scent is not for me...at all. Finished with Clubman vanilla and found it pleasant, very subtle and will make its way in my rotation. So in all fairness to Maggards, they are still my #1 supplier but won't be buying at least this flavor of soap.
