    sorry, that read really snippy. I didn't mean it that way. I meant to be informative, not authoritative.

    No worries David, I took it as you intended.

    If anyone was snippy it was me with my initial tetanus comment that, evidently, was uneducated. I'm glad that my friend from the Pacific NW @Mustache has a sense of humor! :happy088:

    Cheers!

    I was at Camp Pendleton also. Shipped out from San Fran to Vietnam. I believe as a Corpsman you qualify for Corpsmen Heaven. You've got my vote for sure.:happy088:

    The original picture looks like rusted iron, not bakelite.

    No doubt!
    Even the close-ups that @Mustache later sent look that way to me!

    But he did say it was Bakelite in his original description. I guess I'm just distracted by pictures too much and skipped the text! :whacky011:
    (I used to "read" a lot of comic books too!) :happy068:

    ZCOLDWATER1.jpg

    Dove Men Face Wash
    Tabac
    Jayaruh #23 Silver Tip
    Gillette NEW LC/Gillette Aristocrat* 1947 BYR
    Personna SS
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Lemon WH
    Pinaud Vegetal


    The Tabac Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my Jayaruh #23 Silver Tip brush. First pass with the Gillette LC NEW followed by second pass with my Gillette Aristocrat (1947 Birth Year Razor) with a Persona Super blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, alum block, and a final cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayers Lemon WH and then Pinaud Lilac Vegetal after shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Again I'm putting the freeze to my face and it's a good one - Brian's Frostbite soap delivers a ton of awesome lather with a great scent and PLENTY of menthol goodness. Ok, not quite as icy as the Synergy Frost_byte and certainly not as potent as what a Glacial soap would give, but still pretty damned icy. I'm really loving the Lucky Tiger a/s cream, and the Frostbite aftershave from Brian has wonderful skincare as well as a POWERFUL menthol kick. I'm still trying to figure out the scent. Some guys say frankincense and pine, but I don't really know. Whatever it is, it smells awesome! ;) :D
