Vintage Williams SS
Osage Rub/Jason's Aloe Gel
St James of London Mandarin & Patchouli cologne

Modified my technique a bit and got a much better shave out of a Super Chrome blade. The StJoL Mandarin & Patchouli cologne is just wonderful, like it lots. And, again, the vintage Williams is the bomb! Now go enjoy your day folks.

Six on a Futur, you must have some pretty thick whiskers I couldn't go past four.

 

I ordered some of the Lucky Tiger Disappearing Cream as a result of some of your posts.

Blade: Feather Platinum (4)
Brush: WDC-1 (Grandfather's) Black Badger Wood Handle (Whipped Dog) 20/65
Bowl: Yokohama Studio
Cream: Proraso
A/S: Myrsol Agua Balsamica

Missed shaving yesterday. I played what might be my last round of for the year. Mailed a bunch of Shave Den Calendars, and prepared calendars for mailing today.
Had a great shave this morning. Only 2 passes for a change. Very good shave cream, I really like the Myrsol A/S. "DFS".

 

Try setting the razor at #7. Works for me, but it is not my favorite Gillette.

 

What an outstanding looking case. Great setup. Love the tongue & groove.

 

Good looking Black Tip.

 

Thursday Shave(in sentence form):

I prepped as usual with the Dial for Men FULL FORCE bodywash. Then it was back to Rise for the shave and post-shave. I've probably said this before, but it's quite interesting to have the Rise shave cream be reformulated and the aftershave have more of the original Rise fragrance, with the word "NEW" on it,as well as "TRUSTED SINCE THE 50's". As Rise began, there was no aftershave. The razor was the usual Gillette Pivot Sensor 2 DisposeABLE. Only 1 1/2 weeks left in Science Month to see if Rise cream works all right with Clubman A.S.

 

I believe the feature attraction of LSBR is the softness it gives your face&neck.

 

how CAN there be anything wrong with Rubby Dubby Doo?....after all, we're talkin "Tonificante para cabeza y Cara"

 

FANTASTIC name for an after-shave!!!! (oops....and the soap, too)

 

5/8 Bismarck Razor Works
MeiBner Tremonia/Rhassoul
homemade brush/ Edwin Jagger pure knot
This is the knot that got me interested in pure badger hair. I ordered another Shavemac pure knot earlier in the week in the bulb style. I actually enjoy this little brush. The hairs are coarser but not prickly at all. It's not well packed with hair but I like the feel of the knot on my face. I'd consider the Bismarck razor a working mans type , nothing fancy but well made and a good shaver that takes a good edge. If I can find it I'll use my bone handled Bismarck tomorrow. Have a good one.
