    Razor - Kai Captain
    Blade - [​IMG] (?)
    Soap - Stirling Barbershop
    Brush - Jayaruh #46
    Post - Alum

    And the razor of choice tonight? The Captain Kai. Pain stick time. The blade was already in it from the last time I used it and, if memory serves, it's the Captain blade from Kai as well. The blade felt more like the Kai than the Feather Pro so I assume I'm right. How many uses? Don't know. Don't remember. Mayhem enough for you?

    Soap was Stirling and the JR46 was the brush. Two full passes and I'm at a decent enough DFS. Not perfect but not bad at all either. One minor nick on my lower neck on the right side. Other than that, no problems. So, a TSR last night, pain stick tonight....what's tomorrow bring? Place your bets because MAYhem continues to provide the chaos it deserves!

    Olive Branch
    This was my first use of the Crown King Olive Branch soap and aftershave giveaway from the Maggard's meet last week. The soap performs in the usual excellent CK fashion. The scent was hard for me to pick up, but this is allergy season, so my nose is not in top form. Douglas Smythe described it as similar to the first responder soap he released recently, but with white chocolate instead of dark. This was a great shave in all aspects.
    Prep: Chattilon Lux Butter
    Soap: Crown King Olive Branch
    Brush: Brothers Bristles Bronze Shadow
    Razor: Futur
    Blade: voskhod
    AS: Crown King Olive Branch[​IMG]

    Wonderful shave with the PAL Injecto-Matic this morning. Three passes for a dolphin smooth and refreshing finish. Enjoy your day friends. :)

    Another CrackyWacky Ticky Tacky Off-the-Charts Bone-Chillingly-Cold shave, this time with the Glacial Eskimo Tuxedo soap which is now about 90% finished. My Plissoft synthetic is an expert at seeking out lather where there's none and it gave me more than enough of it for a wonderful three pass job which cleaned me up perfectly. The Glacial Unscented balm and the Alcolado Glacial splash worked their menthol magic. I feel like I have a built-in air conditioner on my face and body - wow, it feels like heaven! :happy088: :happy088:

    Razor: GEM Pushbutton
    Brush: Omega Hi synthetic
    Lather: Proraso Green
    Post: Witch hazel, Country Club Sweet Water aftershave
    WTG, touch-up

    I have finished off the Proraso! This was one of the smaller containers. I really enjoyed it as an effective soap. It's not top tier but certainly worked very well each time. Nice shave with the Pushbutton and everything came together for an enjoyable experience. Hope the same for you!

    Have a great day!
