December 5 SOTM

Good morning.

Rockwell Model T v. 1 ( setting 5)
Dorco ST 300 DE Blade ( 2)
Rockwell Synthetic Brush
TSD Orange SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Personal Care Witch Hazel
Dome Turf: 3 days



As promised, I performed my headshave thus morning. 3 passes and I became cue ball smooth. However, did get some irritation on the back part of my head because the alum was singing the high notes. Thankfully, I didn't cut myself.
I decided to load the brush off the puck and headlather. Therefore, there isn't a lather pic. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave and I am ready to face the world. Take care.

 

Thanks Gary

 

Love the theme for your setup. Terrific Thursday shave Danny. I have to say that my Hembree Delrin/Maggard Timberwolf Brush is still going strong.

 

Great gear and shave my friend.

 

Good job this Throwback Thursday morning. The Proraso Shave Foam surprised me by sending out more than last use. I say that with sarcasm, as I struggled with it last time. I just don't know what happened that time, but it's all history now. Clean, clear all around. No damage. One pass. Nice ending with the Proraso Barbe Dure A.S. Mybe I will purchase the Proraso red jar shave soap soon. As Outstanding As It Gets.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Thank Joe.

The Delrin brush handles are tough....glad you are still enjoying yours.

Brush: Strike Gold Shave Minion 24 mm Badger
Lather: PAA Atomic Age Bay Rum
Aftershave: Pinaud Clubman

Fabulous shave with yet another vintage Gillette DE. The Blue Tip is probably the mildest DE I have in my den. Initially, I was not impressed with this razor, however, once I found the proper blade angle the shave have been nothing sort of fantastic.

Another great three pass shave. The tub of soap has about 10 or less shaves with it. I might be able to finish it off before the New Year.

Hope you all have had a great day.

FYI - Joe, @Trigger, had a conniption when he woke up to a dusting of snow in his backyard.

 

I’ll bust out mine tomorrow.

 

Well done Joe.

 

Beautiful shave Gary.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Wonderful hair shaper shave Joe.

 

Thank you Paul

 

Another fine Lakewood shave Danny.

 

Very nice Barry.

 

Thank you John

 

Classic shave Joe. Yes, I was not thrilled to see snow on the ground and on my car. I am afraid that it's going to be a rough 3.5 months.

 

Thanks Joe.
