Before there was Hoppe's there was Bedford Gun Juice. Loved the smell when I was a kid when I would walk into my father's gun room...not sure however that I would want to have it hanging around my face all day.

Razor: Gillette 195 Fat Boy (f1) 1960 (5) (3) Brush: e-shave finest Badger Mug: Old Spice 1985 Cobalt Blue Cream: Geo. F. Trumper's Coconut cream Blade: Feather (2) Post shave: Thayers Cucumber WH, Jack Black balm, TOBS Luxury AS Put some Trumper's Coconut into my favorite OS mug. The Badger whipped up some nice warm lather. My FB is still my favorite razor and as usual, made quick work in 2 passes WTG XTG. A little touchup on my neck ATG on 3 and done. I had enough lather left over for another pass. The WH felt good, nice and cool. After cleanup some JB and when it dried, some TOBS. Have a good one y'all!
I need to revisit the TOOBS cream. I remember writing a (stupid) post a few years back where I compared the two. I do think I prefered the TOOBS over GFT. I hardly use feathers. They works just fine, but lack a certain something. I guess I need to revisit those too
