    Dec 10 SOTA

    Good afternoon

    1968 Slim Adjustable (setting 6)
    Gillette Winner Blade (4?)
    Barbury Synthetic Brush
    Stirling Tsuka SS and AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Beard Growth: 23 hrs

    Since Gary @brit shave with his Slim, I thought that I would shave with mine.
    Setting six is still good for me with my very little 1 day stubble. I used the bloomed water as a pre-shave and facelathered by loading the brush off the puck. The lather was slick and well hydrated so that the Slim glided easily. Two pass shave without any hiccups for a close, comfortable shave that was affirmed by the minimal alum feedback. Splashed on the aftershave and I am good to go. As an afterthought, I sprayed on the matching EdT. LTake care.

    SRS # 811 - 1508.5 Project - Prarie Song
    CRD - Bowl and Brush Shave
    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Taylor Eyewitness 1000
    Brush: CRD Patriotic Swirl 26 mm Synthetic
    Lather: Lakewood Soap Company Prairie Song
    Aftershave: Derby City Chop Shop Small Batch Tonic- Winter Reserve
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Humphreys Cucumber Melon Witch Hazel

    First straight razor shave since this past Sunday. While I am enjoying using the DEs during the week I love the sense of accomplishment the use of a straight provides.

    The Taylor Eyewitness 1000, which I won in a raffle in April of 2020, is extremely sharp and delivers a superior shave. Once again, three passes did the trick. I really do not need the third pass but I just love the process.

    I manage to get outside to bag up another three bags of leaves. Finally, the end is in sight.

    I hope you all had a great day gentlemen.
