    RAZOR: GILLETTE SUPERSPEED
    BLADE: GILLETTE WILKINSON SWORD (NEW)
    BRUSH: ERSKINE A-100
    SOAP: DERBY TUB
    POST: OSAGE RUB/ CINNAWOOD BOROKA:Animatedfrozensmily::Animatedfrozensmily:

    had a decent 3 pass shave today. a few weepers but nothing serious. the Derby lathered up in no time and smells a lot like Arko. The brush was shedding but it is the original knot so im not surprised but I may get a new knot put in. The Cinnawood Boroka has a nice sweet scent that lasts for quite a while. My GF just came in the room and laughed at me for posting this lol (she doesn't understand it....not yet anyways). have a great shave and a great weekend!

    thank you. I got the brush off craigslist for $8 and it was still in the box but it does shed so I have been thinking of getting a new knot for it.

    When I heard Folsom Aftershave from Chicago IL I immediately thought of the TV commercial of Pace Picante sauce; so and so Salsa comes from New York City "NEW YORK CITY". Being from the Bay Area I think of Folsom CA, and Johnny Cash Folsom Prison and hard to place Folsom coming from Illinois.

    I will admit that I do want to try their Shambala and Capri aftershaves but every time I hit their website they are always out so that tells me something.

    Thank you for your kind words! :)

    Thank you and, as a matter of fact, it was raining today for the first in over 2 months which is extremely odd, here, and it as a blessing as everything is severely dry and we have actually been affected with the smoke being blown into the city from forest fires on Vancouver Island and to the north of the city. It has been the driest summer I have experienced here. The rain is such a welcome thing , at the moment. :)
