Had to do a quickie this morn. The 1st pass, using canned lather WTG. 2nd pass, ATG, then clean up. Came up with DFS, so it is what it is. Fine.

Razor: Merker Futur Polished Chrome 2015 (1.5)
Brush: Erskine Badger 1947 Birth Year
Mug: Old Spice 1985 Cobalt Blue
Cream: Truefitt&Hill No 10
Blade: Feather (2)
Post shave: Thayers Cucumber WH, Jack Black balm, Cerruti 1881

Put a dab of Truefitt&Hill No 10 into my favorite OS mug. The Erskine badger with the original knot whipped up some nice warm lather. My Futur is a great looking razor, and Still on 1.5 as it works will for me. I'm really happy with the quality of this razor and the great shaves I'm getting with it. It made quick work in 2 passes WTG XTG. A little touchup on my neck ATG and done. The Cucumber WH felt good, nice and cool. After cleanup some JB and when it dried, some Cerruti 1881. This stuff smells great!Y'all have a good one!

 

The Spice is strong with this one!

 

Very nice setup

 

@ObiDon and you as well! Welcome to the Cerruti club.

Wonderful 2-pass wtg/xtg shave today with my beautiful polished blackbird paired with an Astra SP blade
If you've never tried the Chiseled Face soaps do yourself a favor and give them a try ... nice cusion, slickness and the scent is awesome. I finished off with a couple splashes of the Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber aftershave splash
HAVE A GREAT DAY !

Thanks for your concern. It isn`t about anything, except that my meds didn`t work as usual. I always enjoy the total concept of my "morning time" in getting ready for the day. Most usually, the way that goes, affects the rest of the day. I did get a satisfactory shave and besides my hand shaking, I enjoyed the rest of that "morning time". Happy camper. Thank you.

Hey, Primo, I`m 80. Don`t mix up the "quickies".

Fantastic black and white, you did good. (envious me)
