    Nice photo buddy. You always have the goods I want to try. CaD is another on the list. Many really like the scent. I don't think Doug has that much CaD in inventory! I have the Sandalwood Shampoo and love it. All three hairs on my head get squeaky clean with that thick lather.

    The smell of wet soil, the soft brush with a good backbone, a padded foam that allows the caress of the razor, closing with the smell of wood and leather. There is no such thing as shaving with straight razor...

    My second shave with a Stirling non-mentholated soap - this Electric Sheep is FANTASTIC. The scent is so nice, and it has the typical Stirling rich, slick, wonderful lather along with such good post-shave care. The Booster Iced Lime has no cooling to it but it still feels great and smells so nice and barbershoppy. I'm really impressed with these Rapiras - they do the job great. BBS with no effort! :happy088: :happy088:

    Brush: Surrey badger
    Lather: Strop Shoppe Baker Street
    Post: Witch hazel, Stirling Baker Street aftershave
    WTG, touch-up

    Easy and comfortable shave this morning. I really like the Baker Street scent and pleased that Stirling was able to revive it. I'll get the soap once this original Strop Shoppe container runs out, which will be a while! Great lather, easy one pass with generous touch-up followed by a nice sensation from the Stirling splash. Nice way to start the day.

    Have a great Tuesday!

    Very comfortable and close shave. The Ladas performed as I remembered, excellent. The TOBS is a favourite for sure. I have been using Stirling for the last couple of months. Although the Stirling is terrific, it was nice to get back to TOBS. TSD witch hazel is a favourite too. Excellent stuff.

    Soap: TOBS
    Brush: Brandless Badger
    Aftershave: TSD witch hazel
