    Fine shave this Throwback morning. Not too exciting or special, given it was a sophisticated goo shave. I made sure to get a good squeeze of the Barbasol and it was probably enough for 2 passes, but I did just the 1. I probably left some astroturf here and there. Surprisingly well down at Cactus. Pretty good at the cheeks&sideburns. Satisfied with Porcupine Alley. The Royal Copenhagen A.S. can almost equal Aqua Velva, as I do like the fragrance of it, and it's on the cool side, but not as much as AV. Had to be careful at the pour spout, as there was some Niagra Falls action happening. Back with same tomorrow. Pretty Outstanding.

    Wonderful shave Chris. Is the 7 O’Clock blade the one in the green package? If so, I have enjoyed them in the past.

    SRS # 897 - Gemini Shave - Wholly Kaw King of Oud/ AJ Jordan Old Faithful/Shore Shave Creamsicle

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: AJ Jordan Old Faithful Cocolobo scales
    Brush: Shore Shave Creamsicle Swirl 24 mm White Synthetic
    Lather: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
    Aftershave: Wholly Kaw King of Oud
    Additional Care:
    Omega Alum
    Dickenson’s Original Witch Hazel
    Stirling Unscented Glacial Balm

    Much better atmospheric conditions to this point as compared to yesterday’s. Shave results were equally as good. I am closing in on shave # 900 with the straight razor. Those of you in the 30DC that have been following me for a period of time will know which of my straights will receive the honor on either this upcoming Sunday or Monday. (Hint: This razor always gets the honor of the SRS that is a multiple of 25.)

    The first member of the 30DC that can identify this razor will receive a tub of soap from my collection. (I do not take a damp brush to my tubs. I scoop out a 1.5 - 2 gram scoop and press it into one of my lather bowls.)

    Feel free to gander a guess. For you gentlemen newer to the group, a little research into my past post of either April, March or February will help you obtain an answer.

    good luck.
