June 2021 30-Day Rule/Focus Pix and Discussion

Thanks Danny. It was a quiet day until I went to service.

 

Thank you for asking. We are both doing good and waiting for things to return to normal.

 

Back to work shave: Joris razor loaded with Rapira Swedish Steel, Thäter silvertip and Stirling Lemon all contributed a cooling and excellent shave on this warm summer day.

 

Thank you Danny.

 

Thank you Joe...I have only tried the modern version which i enjoy...Never had the pleasure of trying the vintage version.

 

Thank you Danny.

Happy Monday I think. Once again the weekend was entirely too short. Back with the Menthol Mist this morning. I have to finish up some stuff. Despite telling the ladies no shaving stuff, I ended up with 4 new soaps and creams. At least they support my shaving hobby. Three passes with the Merica razor ended in a drama free BBS shave. I hope everyone has a great Monday.

 

Nice pic and setup Dave!

Cool shave Clint! You are fortunate to have your family support your hobby.

 

Terrific shave Keith!

Good morning!

Awesome face freeze to start the day! Three passes for near BBS.

The Tradere SB has finished its three shave run and what a wonderful three shaves it was. Not sure what I'm going to use next. I'm leaning toward one of my Gillette adjustable razors. They really will work at any setting.

Have a great day!

Menthol Monday

Utopia safety razor
Feather blade (3)
Travel shave brush
Fine Snake Bite shave soap
Irish Chestnut by Andy Hilfiger

I think I've used this travel brush a couple of times and I figured it needed a go this morning. I little smaller than what I'm used to but it does a good job and it stores back in the handle

Excellent Fine lather this morning.

I was feeling a little nostalgic this morning and reached for my very first safety razor. The $10.00 Utopia safety razor. Yes...this is the razor that brought me into the wonderful world if wet shaving. I did not want to spend a lot of money on a razor because I did not know if a DE would work out for me but I have not looked back. It is also amazing how much better this shave was than my first. Great shave this morning with no blood loss or drama. The alum was almost completely silent.

A little Irish Chestnut by Andy Hilfiger and this one was in the bag.

I hope everyone has a great Monday.....where did the weekend go?

 

Thanks Danny..it was a pleasant visit.

 

Thank you Joe .

 

Well, what a nice shave I got this morning from my first "interesting" combination of the week. That's right, I said first. That Tallow&Steel is a very good soap(the "Classic Two" although there are others in that group-T&S-that I don't have). Spread very well across the face&neck. Not unlike Rise and Gillette Foamy in the spread persuasion. (Course those are magnificent goos). 2 passes. No Knicks/cuts. For T&S, you have to use a glacial aftershave frankly, and I did-Stoylin Glacial Lime. Felt great. Those glacials are powerful. Made for a nice Menthol Monday. Outta This World Excellent.

 

Clearly, "Snake Bite" is the most popular Fine product among the TSD persuasion.
