    Cool setup Gary, I did have a sniff of some Clarins in a local retail store but haven't pulled the trigger so far. With my poor sense of smell I need something stronger

    So nice to have my TSD Russian Leather A.S. bcck in my rotation!(Course it was under my bed the whole time, I just didn't know it). Maybe my rubber-stamp is under there too-I needed it today, the one titled "Just like the last two days".Great foamy shave all the way, until I got to South Porcupine, and added to the redness there. Thank goodness the aforementioned A.S.(along with cold-water rinse)neutralized it somewhat, but the redness still exists. Thank goodness again that I was able to recover from my disappointment and do a nice job down at Cactus Nation. One pass. Very Outstanding.

    Good morning.

    Straight Razor Shave #587
    C-Mon
    JR # 290 Cashmere Brush
    TSD Orange SS and AS
    Stirling Alum Block
    Personal Care Witch Hazel
    Beard Growtn: 41 hrs.

    It's been awhile since I used this straight so it got the call this morning. Three passes gave me a smooth comfortable shave. I decided to face lather instead of bowl lathering so there isn't a lather pic. The alum feedback was minimal. Splashed on the witch hazel and the matching aftershave to end this shave. Take care.

    Terrific Tabac shave Chris. I have never tried Balzano blades, but have heard they are very sharp.
