Happy Halloween Saturday, October 31, 2015 Mongoose with Triad Ti Helix Hex Feather Pro #3 Druida Red D-7 Manchurian TSD Pumpkin Harvest Alum, Witch Hazel ++Menthol, Whipped Shea Butter Floid Vigoroso Today’s shave was a Spooky Close 2 pass BBS. The Red D-7 had no problem whipping up an outstanding slick lather with TSD Pumpkin Harvest. TSD lanolin soaps are among the best lathering in my den. The whipped Shea Butter was cool and soothing. It’s moisturizing is top notch. I’m all cleaned up and ready for a night full of Ghosts and Goblins. Hope you all had a great shave today!

Gold Bond Ultimate Aftershave: Chiseled Face Sherlock I haven't shaved in 3 days, been really sick. I just received this beautiful Red Tip and Chiseled Face Sherlock aftershave.

Never let the things you WANT Make you forget the things you HAVE
We're traveling today so when I packed I grabbed a later type E2 for an easy shave today. Ah, I missed the E2. So easy and smooth. BUT, as I was shaving my wife wanted to discuss some plans for our teenage son. Yup, you guessed it, a few more nicks and weepers than usual - including an, "ouch!" at the Adam's apple. I think there is a lesson in there somewhere... T&H Ultimate Comfort PSO Simpson Case Best Badger AOS Lavender Cream Schick later type E2 Schick (2) AOS Lavender After Shave Balm Happy shaving - Karl

October 31, 2015 SOTD - World Series - Game 4 Morning shave Hot Shower Soap: Barrister & Mann Diamond Shave Soap Brush: Omega Pro 48 Boar Razor: Gillette Goodwill Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (3) TSD Witch Hazel Aftershave: Old Spice 1967 My third and final shave with this setup brought the same great results as the first two - and brought my OC October to a close. Very good to great shaves with Gillette New LC, Schick Type C1, Standard Safety Razor and Gillette Goodwill. If I could only keep one it would be the New LC - my new favorite razor since starting this journey in May. World Series Game 4 With the Mets win last night we’re assured of baseball through the weekend…and hopefully beyond! Weird coincidence of the Series: The pattern of results between the first three games of this Series and the last World Series won by the Mets in 1986: ----------------1986---------------2015 Game 1-----Lost by 1 run-----Lost by 1 run Game 2-----Lost by 6 runs---Lost by 6 runs Game 3-----Won by 6 runs---Won by 6 runs Game 4-----Won by 4 runs------Tonight ? Play Ball! RT

Clint, The shave was surprisingly mild. I might even compare it to my Feather. Got a great shave though and it is a beauty to behold.
