    Thanks Douglas. It's one of my favourites and it pairs very well with the Oleo Windy City and Noble Otter Barrbarr soaps.

    My wife makes and sells (at a local antique/craft store) all natural bar soaps. This pic shows a small portion of her essential oils and other stuff. I swear when she's in the basement mixing up her brew I hear faint cackling. Scary.

    Thanks Primo. If any of my vintage brushes deserved a better knot, this would be the one.

    La Toja Magno Soap
    Clubman Shave Butter (Pre shave)
    Creightons for Men Ultra Rich Shaving Cream
    Omega S10083 Synthetic Brush
    Turkish Copper Shaving Bowl
    Focus R48 Dynamic SE with a Supermax Blue Diamond Blade
    Alum and Rinse
    Simple Facial Toner
    Aloe Vera Gel
    Brut Oceans AS

    I didn't post yesterday. I was so disappointed as it was a special event.I used a PAL blade or the first time in a Clog Pruf. It was like using sand paper and I had to revert to a Tech to get an acceptable finish.
    Today's shave was a breath of fresh air and unless I am careful and behave myself....I may end up ordering another Focus Dynamic. (I fancy a red one!)
    3 passes for an absolutely BBS result......and as usual with the R48.........2 would have been enough!

    Razor: Supply SE w/ Schick (@ram57)
    Blade: Schick (1)
    Brush: DFS LE Nathan Clark Envy White Knot Handle Aluminum Color, Anodized Dark Bronze. #41/150.
    Soap: Lisa's Natural Herbal Creations
    A/S: Myrsol F/Extra
    Bowl: Suribachi

    What an amazing pif I received from Navy Corpsman and fellow wet shaving member of this forum Guy (ram57). I started with the #2 plate. I did 2 passes and thought I should change to the #3 plate, however, I think I'll wait as I believe I found the correct angle of attack on my last 2 passes. I will wait a few more shave before I make the change. The soap was also from Guy and it produced a great lather. The amazing brush might of had something to do with it. Hope you like the picture Guy. I certainly wasn't going to take a bathroom picture with your gift.
