    You know, you had your chance. Five or six years ago I sent you 1.5 ounces of Heartwood shave cream and USPS stated it was delivered.

    Oh man, I don't recall seeing that(course I'm not denying you sent it). Did it look similar to the regular size, just the tiny version?

    I've never had anything but good shaves from my Lupo-72. Nice post.

    No. I poured the shave cream into a small tub I picked up at the Dollar Store. If I remember correctly I also included some samples from Blackship Grooming. I track all shipments via USPS, Fedex and UPS as I've not received packages over the years, so I ensure that the items I send or receive are delivered. Maybe someone helped themselves to our package. At the time, I thought it was strange you never posted a SOTD with the Heartwood but I thought maybe the scent was not for you after all.

    I just feel bad that didn't work out. I've been happy with my Bill Neumanns, and of course next month for me is Neumann November.

    Hi Friends,

    Here my Shave of the Day (09.10.2024)

    IMG_4659.jpeg
    Razor: Giesen & Forsthoff + PAV Brush Handle // Blade: Gillette yellow // Soap: MSC-The Razor Company Tabacchi // Brush: Simpson X2L // Aftershave: Witch Hazel // Scent: Davidoff Zino

    What a stunning shave this has been.

    2,5 passes full of joy. Everything matched well together. The soap with it´s sophisticated Tobacco and Vanilla scent, which is manly and cozy at the same time. It has been lathered up with the X2L by Simpson.

    The razor, smooth and gentle, took care of the whiskers.

    Witch Hazel as Aftershave and as scent the legendary Zino by Davidoff. Couldn ´t get ANY better.

    10 out of 10.

    Have a great time, enjoy your shaves and stay safe and healthy.

    Greetings
    Thorsten
