You guys with your damascus Livi's... :drool and YOU with the mammoth...

One of these days... when my house is paid off and the school loans are paid and... and...

Maybe I'll just put a dollar a day into a "Livi Jar" for the next 3 years... hmm... that's NOT a bad idea!

 

Nice SOTD pcitures! Tough acts to follow

Gillette Slim
Feather blade
C&E Best Badger
Mama Bear's Awakenings soap
Max Refreshing w/Menthol
SCS Lavender milk

Talk about a terrible shave. I haven't had the kind of redness and bumps on my Adam's apple that I got today in a while! I guess I'm so used to the short handled Merkur that I forgot how to use the Slim. Strange turn of events there as the Slim was the only razor I used for about 8 months.

 

Tuesday 1/27 . . .

• [*]Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
  [*]Brush: C&E BBB
  [*]Soap: Tabac
  [*]Razor: 1912 Ever Ready
  [*]Blade: Ted Pella PTFE coated SE (shave 7)
  [*]Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
  [*]A/S: Thayer's Rose Petal Witch Hazel Toner & Clubman Club Complete ASB
  [*]EDT: Tabac EDT
  
  [*]Result: Pretty good BBS shave today. But I had to work at it and do a bit more buffing on the oil pass to do it. That means the blade is done for. Got the wife's attention with the Tabac fragrance. She likes it too. No blood today, of course not a real sharp blade to draw any.
