    Shave Of The Day - February 18th



    • Hot Shower
    • E.J. Badger Brush
    • Erasmic Shave Cream
    • E.J. Chatsworth
    • Zorrick Blade - Day 2
    • Homemade Skin Food

    Can a shave get better than this? I submit that it can NOT!

    What a great shave today! The Erasmic cream was so rich and luxurious with a great, light old school smell, and the Zorrick blade/Chatsworth combo just mowed 'em all down. Finish it up with the classic Clubman scent, SWMBO approval too, and you have a 5 blade rating all the way! :happy088

    Use more stuff than usual Friday:
    Hot Shower
    Musgo Cream
    Tweezerman badger brush
    Lord Smart razor
    Sharp (brand) blade. Got some of these a long time ago, because I misunderstood a recommendation to get Shark blades. This is the first time I've tried them. Rougher shave than I'm used to, but still no nicks, cuts, or weepers, and the end result was okay.
    Cold water rinse
    King of Shaves Kinexium Shave Oil. Noticed some whiskers I'd missed. Rather than lather up again, I spread some of this on, and got rid of them.
    Ogallala Bay Rum AS. Still had some left in a sample bottle, and thought what the heck. Now I'm regretting it. Am I going to be smelling this &#@!@!! all day? What was I thinking? Oh well. Poured the rest down the sink, though.

    Glycerin + HotTowel
    Williams shave soap
    Vulfix 247 pure badger brush
    Merkur HD razor
    Personna blade (day3)
    Corn Huskers Lotion
    Homemade Bay Rum aftershave

    A little disappointed in the Williams this morning. Although, it may have been a mistake in my lathering/mixing technique. Seemed a little thin with some larger bubbles here and there. Still a decent shave. Better luck next time.

    Prep: Hot shower, hand strop blade
    Coffee: Home roasted Kenya, black (some Costa Rica Tarazu on order)
    Soap: Ogallala Bay Rum & Sandalwood
    Brush: Vulfix 406, The Burlington
    Razor: Merkur 34C HD
    Blade: Astra, day 7, 3 passes (time for new blade)
    Post: Cold water rinse, Humphrey's Maravilla Lotion, Ogallala Bay Rum & Sandalwood splash
    'Stache Wax: Wacky Tacky from www.firehousemoustachewax.com
    Shave Rating: 4 Blades

    Absolutely loving the Astra blade. This week has been so much better than last week's shaves with the Lord blade.

    Anyone else find Ogallala soap to be a bit of a different animal? I do like the Bay Rum & Sandalwood scent. But the lather... I've heard it described as lumpy. Despite whipping up a bit different than my other soaps, it provides enough cushion and slickness for a good shave.
