    Star 1912 style razor
    Gem Stainless blade
    WD Silver Tip brush
    Gillette Pure SC
    Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
    Daxton A/S

    The Gillette Pure SC worked well again today and my face is happy. Saw the Daxton A/S at the local Family Dollar store and thought, "Why not"?. Especially since it was only a dollar. It's a Brut knock off, doesn't last long but is ok. Now go enjoy your day folks

    Primo - i was chasing that Varlet beehive for years, never could get my grubby paws on one. I spotted the "leura" brush on the innerweb offered up by The Stray Whisker. Shape is very very similar. Loft is high-but as you know i like me some beehive brushes. I only paid 65 bux for it.

    Today's shave was with a Japanese Folding Kamasori, with an Asymmetrical grind. I had a very nice, two pass shave, that left me BDBS. These Kamasori Razors, are thick, like a wedge, and take on, a dangerously wicked edge. Very well made razor. One of my favorites. It was a complete rust bucket, when I first acquired it.

    Razor- Japanese Folding Kamasori.. "Suzuki No.1".
    Brush- B400, by Tom(@twhite ). WD Boar Knot.
    Soap- Arko Stick
    Aftershave- Vintage Shulton Old Spice. Ships Flask Decanter. Mmmmm Mmmmm Good.

    Well, finally first shave with the Razorock GC. Went pretty dang smooth. It did require touch-ups in my normal difficult areas but overall a fine shave. I did obtain an 84 baseplate as well but I wanted to give the 68 a chance first. It def seemed more efficient than the Mamba without a Feather.

    For the synbad brush and the TOBS... I had crazy lather! I can't wait for future shaves with the GC . Have a great day!

    Tabac Tuesday's Shave

    Cold Water Wash
    Tabac Shaving Soap
    Jayaruh #327
    J.A. Henckels Rapide
    CVS CS SE
    CWR
    Tabac AS

    My prep was just a cold water rinse. The Tabac Shaving Soap face lathered well with the Jayaruh #327 brush. I did two passes with the Henckels razor with a CVS CS SE blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    It's very thirsty and took me a while to get the best out of it.
    Now, it's a very good performer with great post shave.
    I'm no good at describing scent but if there was an edt or edp I'd have a few bottles.
