Fine Veterans shave Joe, that Limoncello looks and sounds appealing

Triple 5/5 shaves, got to be happy with that

Thanks Joe

Good tip, I have enough soaps, so no need to skimp!

The two Joes' great minds think alike!

 

Always welcome Chris.

 

It sure was that. Thank you Joe.

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Fine shave this morning with a Stoylin I haven't used too often-Ramblin'Man. It smells like it could pass for a cologne dupe. A minute at the Loading Dock for the soap. Clean and clear all over. No damage done. 2 passes. A little extra work required for both ends of Porcupine Alley, but they(the sides)look great now. Ready to face the day with confidence. As Outstanding As It Gets.

 

Thanks Chris. It is indeed.

 

Fabulous frugal shave Barry.

 

A fabulous shave it was Joe.

 

November 12 SOTM Headshave

Good morning.

Rockwell 6C plate # 6)
Voskhod DE Blade (5)
Barbury Synthetic Brush
Captain's Choice North SS and AS
Stirling Alum Block
Personal Care Witch
Dome Turf: 5 days



I have been getting lazy doing headshaves and with 5 days growth, I desperately was in need of one. I picked the Rockwell 6C because it is hard to nick yourself with it. Also, it has some heft so that it will shave my extensive turf quite readily.

I went with the CC North because the scent is not overbearing and it produces a slick, creamy lather with ease. Here is my lather:



Did 3 error-free passes plus touchups to get a cueball smooth shave. However, I did get some alum feedback on the lower back of my noggin. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to finish this shave. Take care.

SRS # 1201 -The Edmund Fitzgerald of Busta’s Blend

Rating: 5 / 5

Razor: AA Gen Takahashi Tokusei
Brush: Hembree Derlin Paragon Boar 25 mm
Lather: Tim’s Soap Busta’s Blend
Aftershave: Pinuad Citrus Musk
Additional Care:
Omega Alum

An excellent final shave with the Busta’s Blend soap. Today it fulfilled its destiny with the Edmund Fitzgerald. I will miss the wonderful lather this soap had produced. Three passes to super smoothness without any mishaps.

Hope you all had a great day gentlemen.

 

Excellent looking shave Barry.
