    Very nice, Joseph. I know you have a back up of the juice. I am assuming you have extras of the vintage Williams as well?

    Fabulous looking shave. I definitely enjoy the sandalwood scent. Have a great day Gary.

    I'm just playing around with shave alternatives until the weather gets consistently warmer. Course I wouldn't use, say, Clubman shave cream with Aqua Velva A.S., as I'd be cancelling out two great, classic, scents.

    You might want to have a look at AgadirInt. website, specifically, for us guys, AgadirMen. It's all Oud all the way. I have, and enjoy, the aftershave(from the "Men"section.)

    Very nice shave, and post Joe! I have heard that Drew Dick razors are very nice razors. It looks like yours is no exception. Near wedges (1/4 hollows) are forgivable and efficient razors. I own a 15/16 near wedge Wostenholm and it really feels like your not cutting whiskers, but it does.

    Joe, they definitely show quality craftsmanship. Another razor on my radar is the ArtRazor made by Yuri Kravchenko. Oh the rabbit hole! :)

    Thanks Jason. I've had for ~4 months or so. Originally it was a purchase with an olive wood handle....but the wood was cracked at the base of the knot, so the seller replaced with this black resin example (and a small refund), as he didn't have stock of another olive wood synthetic. It's nice, good for soap/croap bowl lathering and face painting. If one likes backbone, it's got that. The bristles between the 3 brushes are very similar, slight color variations, but the tip dyeing makes it almost appear they are from the same facility. The individual strands are different though. Simpson is the thinnest, then the EVO, then the Zenith. The EVO has the waviest pattern of each strand, then the Simpson, then the Zenith. Last ultra scientific difference....if you bounce a palm against the top of each brush, Simpson is the softest (even with being the largest knot), then EVO, followed by the Zenith.

    Terrific shave, Joe!
    Thanks, Jason!
    My inventory has grown to the point that some great razors are getting neglected.
