    Another fine shave Gary. That's a really neat looking handle on the razor.

    A real nice Throwback Thursdsy shave this morning. 1:00 at the Loading Dock with the Bill Neumann Heartwood soap. I've begun to sink that soap a little, but still a ways to go. Clean and clear shave most everywhere except Northwest Cactus Nation. BN is a great "skin-food" product. Zeroes across the board on cuts, Knicks, Polka-dots. 2 passes. Nice effort from the Heartwood A.S.. Spirit Millionaire Cologne to close out. Super Duper Outstanding.

    June 6 SOTM

    Good morning.

    Shavette Shave #553
    Parker SRB
    Suneko 1/2 DE Blade (6)
    MrEE LE #10 Cashmere Brush
    Tabac Shave Stick
    AQ Ice Blue AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Personal Care Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 25 hrs

    20240606_100113.jpg

    I decided to do another shavette shave this morning. I have to say that this Suneko blade is still very sharp after 6 uses. I got a super smooth and error-free shave on 3 passes. I could have stopped at 2, but I usually like to do 3 passes. I went with the Tabac stick because I haven't used it in awhile and I wanted to make a quick easy lather. Tabac is great! I never get a bad shave using it. It is a very slick lather.

    The alum feedback was almost non-existent. Splashed on the witch hazel and the AQ Ice Blue aftershave and I am good to go. This was a very relaxing shave. Take care.

    A repeat of Bill Neumann Heartwood(SS&AS) with

    Brush-Large Blue Synthetic-Much better results than yesterday. The main reason for that is that I did better down at
    Cactus Nation(neck). About 0:40 at the loading dock, as the BN jumps onto the brush. Clean and clear most everywhere. As I said, Cactus Nation looks better than yesterday, but not 100%. 2 passes. Again, good work from the BN Heartwood A.S.(which is getting pretty low). Finished again with Spirit Millionaire cologne. As Outstanding As It Gets.
