  2. image.jpg Fathers Day Weekend Shave
    Razor: Gillette gold toggle (D1) 1958 (5)
    Brush: e-shave Badger
    Mug: Old Spice (late glass Mug 02) 1964 – 1978
    Cream: Maca Root
    Blade: Feather (1)
    Post shave: Thayers Cucumber WH, Jack Black cooling gel, Tuscany
    Fathers Day Weekend Treat! My toggle is a treat to shave with. It's like driving a Ferrari, just perfect, in every way, and beautiful. The Maca Root whipped up thick lather, I really like this cream. Great cushion and no preshave needed. Very close on 2 pass shave, perfect! Some WH and after cleanup some Jack Black AS gel, then some Tuscany and all is good. Another DFS for my toggle. The extra weight and the great balance of the toggle make it very easy to just let the razor do the work, and enjoy the ride. Happy Fathers Day y'all.
  3. Tough to beat that Old '98. Still one of my favs.
  4. Looks like lots of work went into that brush. :signs107:

  8. Thanks, Mark, but the items didn't stay up too long and fell off the tree! Good thing there was grass to absorb the fall! :D

    Pre: Shower
    Razor: Merkur 23c
    Soap: Tabac
    Blade: Voskhod
    After: Clubman Special Reserve

    A great shave. I was surprised to find this was well past DFS and into BBS territory. Couldn't ask for better. The price was right and I tipped generously.
  10. Thank you! It's my White Whale!
  11. Thank you :happy088:, the brush handle is straight forward to make once you have a working plan. I have a liking for the Single rings and ABC sets :love055:
  12. Can you give me your feedback on the Cyril Salter Wild Rose?
  13. I usually get very good lather with it I just messed up today.

    It's slickness is very good and it's protective.

    The scent is great! Strong, but very very nice. But this is comming from someone that like Rose a lot =)

    It was a gift from Kerry, he didn't like the scent very much.

    I feel confident enough with it to recommend it to people =), it's a good performer. There is a lot of scents, I like it a lot.

  16. I have tried the Vetiver and Sandalwood. I found the consistency to be a bit watery, but the performance was excellent. I wish it came in a tube. Thank you for your feedback.
  17. That is a really great looking handle. The brush is pretty awesome too.
  18. So glad you like the blades.
  19. Yep. According to the packaging it comes from a Danish store. Is it any good?
  20. I really like the brush, as well as the brush razor stand. You have some nice gear.
