Wednesday Prep: Warm Shower-Stirling Scots Pine Sheep Soap: Stirling Sandpiper Razor: Gillette NEW Short Comb Blade: Vintage Gillette Platinum-Plus (16) Brush: Wild West Brushworks/Elite Razor Manchurian White-24mmx54mm Aftershave: Stirling Sandpiper w/Menthol WTG-XTG-ATG (adjusted angles for my beard) Stirling Sandpiper today. 20 seconds to load the Wild West Brushworks/Elite Razor Manchurian White brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette Platinum-Plus blade still in the Gillette NEW Short Comb. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Sandpiper aftershave. Bob
Wednesday morning: Neutrogena Men Facial Wash Razorock Plissoft 26mm Monster Super Speed/Astra day 4 Stirling Glacial Margaritas in the Arctic SS Stirling Glacial Unscented ASB B+M Arctique AS Splash Eau Sauvage EdT An absolutely brilliant, sweet BBS shave which was so much fun - as I've said many times, this type of setup is only for the Menthol Monkey Club because it's so overwhelmingly cold. The Glacial MITA soap lathers easily and rich just like the regular version it has the same lovely citrusy/tropical scent, but it has (this is no joke) three times more menthol in it so if you ever try it be prepared to freeze. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Arctique both went on frigid and so soothing.

Oh wait....I misread-I thought you said that in another SHAVE FORUM. I say that, because I saw your avatar in a couple other forums. Can't get a shot past you .
Pre: Cold water face wash Brush: LeeDa Keyhole with Maggards 24mm Finest Cream: Castle Forbes Lime EO Razor: ATT Calypso (on loan) Blade: Feather Pro Super Post: Cold water rinse, Castle Forbes Lime EO ASB Wow! The Pro Super blade works really well for me in the Calypso, very efficient and smooth. I prefer the heft of the General but the shave is pretty similar. An excellent midweek fillip. Happy Shaving one and all.
Wednesday July 25,2018 Razor: Gillette Guard Blade: Guard SE Cart. (3) Lather: Neutrogena Shave Cream AS: Mennen `afta`/ Old Spice Newspaper Date: November 5, 1943 An unbelievable shave, 2 pass, WTG/ATG, touch ups and voila ! a BBS+. The Gillette Guard looks like a toy, but shaves like the `Big Boys`. The smoothest shave in recent memory. I have a OneBlade Core coming soon, I will compare them with a lot of different components, will update when finished. God Bless and great shave to all. Bill
You have Sandpiper Soap?! Lucky you. Course I'm not above getting it sometime-the A.S. is a Stoylin favorite of mine.
Hi Paul. Boy have I been confused this morning, I don`t know how I posted a reply, I was just trying to do a normal post of my morning`s shave, and I got a `post reply`, go figure. The answer to you`re question is, I don`t splash on the Old Spice until after breakfast, after the `afta` is dry, works for me, go with God. Sincerely, Bill
