Good afternoon fellas!

Shavette Shave #282
Parker SRB
Rockwell 1/2 DE Blade (2)
Mr EE Tuxedo Brush
Stirling Frankincense and Myrrh SS and AS
Maggard's Alum Block
DIckinson's WH
Whiskers: 31 hrs



I thought that I would follow Jim once again on the Christmas in July theme so I brought out Stirling's Frankincense and Myrrh. It is my least favorite scent out of the 10 Stirlings scents that I have experienced. It is a pleasant scent, but it is too earthy for me. I tend to go for brighter citrus scents, etc. I really made a great wet lather with Evan's brush. It has a nice backbone for a synthetic. Two passes gave me a BBS shave, but I reopened the weep from yesterday, but that was to be expected with a sharp blade on its 2nd round. The alum and the aftershave gave me a real sensation on my neck. Lol! Tomorrow will be a no shave day. However, I think that I will bring out my 15/16 Wosty wedge or my Ace of Spades for Sunday's shave. This month, I am trying to use my straights that have been neglected. I guess that I forgot what fun I had shaving with them. Artie and Max had been my main go to straight razor shaves. Anyway, have a great evening guys!

 

Great shave Joe, Have a better evening !

 

Glad to see you spreading the love with your neglected razors, Joe. Great shave and take care.

 

Thanks Dave and right back at you!

Thanks Danny! It is good to use my full array of straights once again.

 

Was enjoying some ShaveTV and came across this guy.

I’m a 2 handed shaver and have always been amazed at those who are able to use only 1.

I enjoyed watching this gentleman, he even does the back of his neck.

Some of us have seen @Trigger do the head shave with a shavette.

It always helps to see the technique others apply as we advance our own.

Here is the link to get you there.

Cheers.

 

Beautiful shave Barry

 

I have seen many videos on straight shaving and it helped me generate and perfect my technique. Almost 3 yrs of straight shaving, I am still trying to tweak things in lathering, shaving, etc.

 

Thank you Gary. I m not sure you would call it exactly relaxing. I have been busy with things I need to get done around the house by the end of the month before my shoulder surgery in the beginning of August. Explains why I m behind in the posts.

 

Wonderful sheep tallow shave Dave.

 

You must be missing Christmas Jim. Excellent shave.

 

Wonderful shave Clint

 

Superb shave Blair

Nice shave early this morning, and it was most definitely the highlight of the day.
Well, that and the arrival of @jluc ‘s NB payout:

I look forward to interrupting the Spoiler focus to play with the new baseplates.
Have a great weekend all!
