    This is the ultimate way to freeze and enjoy yourself if you're a menthol monkey like myself and my dear friend Ray - try it, you'll like it. Don't be shy! ;) :D

    Just finished a week with the Personna red blade. First time I've tried these. Very nice. Seems to be as smooth as the Derby but sharper. Got a full week out if it and could have gone longer. No cuts all week.

    My friend, Matt from QCS is European himself - he's from Germany, so even though the Vostok is made in the US, the producer isn't! ;)

    Thank you! It's a Becker travel/brush scuttle, and I use it nearly every day. He sells on eBay if you're interested in getting one. He actually made me a couple of others in different colors. I just unpacked them from the shipping box. He's a really nice gentleman.

    Hmmm...how expensive are they? If it's not to bad I may accidently pick one up...I have this weird condition...it is similar to sleep walking except it is where I am awake and buy stuff. Dr's are still attempting to diagnose me but they haven't told me to stop. :)

    I have a Becker travel scuttle too which I like very much. Very reasonably priced ($30 shipped) for an excellent quality scuttle.

    Your scuttle is a beauty as well. It's reasonably priced, and it is the perfect size for someone who face lathers. :)

    Monday's
    ZCOLDWATER.jpg

    TESC Pre-Shave Oil
    Proraso Green Shaving Soap
    Semogue Owners Club
    Dorco PL 602 Plastic DE
    Dorco ST300 Stainless
    CWR, Asma Alum Block
    Thayers Rose Petal WH
    Aqua Velva Ice Blue

    The Proraso Green Shaving Soap face-lathered well with my JSemogue Owners Club boar brush. Two passes with my new Dorco PL 602 Plastic razor and a Dorco ST300 Stainless blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse and alum block, I finished off with Thayers Rose Petal WH and then Aqua Velva After Shave. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    SHAVE OF the day

    20160221_120039(0).jpg

    Prep: Musgo Real classic
    Razor: Gillette ball end tech
    Blade: Bic (3rd shave)
    Brush: Fine Angel Hair Synthetc

    Lather: Arko Adventure cream
    Post: Reef Point Dragons Blood Balm


    2 pass shave today. Haven't used the Arko cream in a while, not the best stuff on the market, but not a bad cream for the price. Not the greatest shave, had some stubble left, and the blade seemed to be dragging a bit. Finished off with RP balm, great stuff highly recomended. Hope everyone had a great shave!
