    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    EDRIO#98 RazoRock Game Changer OC .84
    Shark Platinum (3)
    Grizzly Bay "Doomsday"(26mm Fanchurian V3, Frigate Class)
    Stirling Satsuma soap and Glacial Satsuma AS

    Two new products making their debut shave this morning. First is the Grizzly Bay Doomsday brush featuring The Fanchurian V3 knot. Loads of backbone is this knot, it feels more like a bulb knot rather then a fan. More backbone then my SHD Fan knot but the tips aren't as soft and don't gel as much. Tiny bit of scritch but I think that may subside with use. New razor in the den also, the RazoRock Game Changer OC. Very smooth easy shave with just enough blade feel to let you know what the blade is and what it's doing. Three passes brought home the baby with ease. Finished with a face freezing shot of the Glacial Satsuma aftershave. Have a great day my friends!

    Thank you Joe!
    Thanks Gary!
    Merci beaucoup Patrick!
    Thanks Clint!
    Being a Numbers Guy, care to share how much menthol crystals per ounce of AS? Everyone has their preference but it'll give me a starting point.

    Great shave and post. The simple pleasures are many times the best. Your post and my experience this week have served as a reminder.

    Beautiful, Andrew! Congrats on the new gear! I almost ordered the V3 Fanchurian with my new handle. I couldn't make my mind up. Maybe on the next handle.

    Yes, a great vintage shave. I don't own any spoilers yet, but the more I hear about them, the more I look at them.

    Great Joseph, that razor is about the only one I can't get along with. I keep trying to no avail. Glad you like it.

    Great Monday shave Andrew, that RR Game Changer sounds nice. The brush is wild.

    Wonderful picture, Andrew! Beautiful brush. I was on the fence when I got my Grizzly Bay brush about using the Fanchurian or getting a SHD. I would definitely be curious to see how a little use with this knot compares to the SHD.
