SoS: February 22, 2016 - February 28, 2016

http://deltaechorazors.bigcartel.com/ is the website and today I received my Triad Brass handle I sent to Delta Echo Razors and him do an antique brass finish on the it. Will be used on M0ndays shave along with iKon slant head.

 

I just looked them up, the wife would kill me, I'm a sucker for copper. I made a full steampunk lamp, copper and stainless, that she loves so maybe there's hope

 

I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Delta Echo has some excellent work over there and even Toby of Triad Razor handles sent pieces his way to apply his magic on couple of his pieces.

Good morning everyone. A blizzard of unexpected proportions swepted across my face today freezing every nook and cranny. This is a shave my fellow menthol monkeys would be proud of. I salute you @crackstar and @Mr. Freeze93. After all my bashing I decided to give Arko another shot, I'm stuck with this tube, so might as well use it up. My weapon of choice for lathering Cryogen and Arko today was the Omega #48 which I bowl loaded and yes!, face lathered, for an amazing uber lather. It was slick, creamy and cushiony beyond belief but most of all cold!! @BigCabDaddy inspired me sometime ago to face lather with this huge brush and he was so right. Dolphin smooth again and the Personna Lab was a joy in this razor. Have a great shave and a great day folks.

 

My goodness! How beautiful Guy

 

Excellent picture.

 

Thank you very much Douglas.

 

Hello together,

just endet my shave. I received my new GEM Clog Pruf and today it had it´s premiere. Here is what i enjoyed:


Semogue 1305 // Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica // GEM Clog Pruf // GEM Stainless (7) // mentholated Tüff Sensitiv

Great shave again.The razor is mild but direct and in the same way very smooth and thoroughly.Next time i should use a new blade, because this one seems to have the best times gone.With the Aftershave i hit the spot. Just the right amount of Menthol for a great cooling sensation. The skincare is top notch.

Now it´s time to enjoy my time. Take care Friends.

Greetings
Thorsten​

 

Thorsten, very nice write up and beautiful photo.

 

What about my towel mountain?

 

Excellent picture. I really like your towel mountain.

 

It's a great towel mountain Primo! Looks like the Swiss Alps!

 

I am so glad you noticed it Douglas.

The Matterhorn, to be exact.

 

Well, this Junjie razor will never replace my Super Speed but it's a pretty darned good DE. It seems a bit more aggressive than my Super Speed but it's still quite forgiving, and it gave me a good BBS shave without any issues. The Palmolive Menthol cream delivered great on the lather, freeze, and skincare as it always does. The Lucky Tiger felt so cooling and soothing - yesterday when I went for a haircut I noticed that my barber also uses it. The Black Powder aftershave splash felt ice-cold and I LOVE the scent!

Mastro Livi CarboInox Kamisori, 7/8​

Today I used this synthetic brush I restored last week by mounting this loft on a wood handle, therefore giving this nice synthetic loft a new life. I am happy with the result and I am glad I could restore it. In this shave I used my Mastro Livi CarboInox Kamisori giving an impeccable and very smooth shave as usual. Not only a beautiful work of art, but also a wonderful masterpiece with charming shading colors. Today I also felt using one of my favorite aftershaves - Floïd Blue - and it is a pity Colomer decided to discontinue this excellent product. By reading how many fellows wet shavers love this product, I cannot really understand why they are not making it anymore.​
