May 17, 2024 Timeless Ti 0.95 mm Gillette 7 O’clock Black Paladin Master Soap Creations Frosted Bay Rum Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne with menthol added Happy Friday!!!!! My face is frozen. The soap has a good chill but the Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne with my menthol added is much colder than the Stirling Glacial I was just using. By decanting part of the Ogallala and then adding the menthol liquid it actually improved the scent for me. Swati and I are both working from our home office and the cologne has her approval so it is a win for sure. Take care and have a great day.

Friday, May 17 ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~TSN X LE~~Gillette Tech #44 Made in England/Voskhod~~Nasomatto Black Afgano Workin' the ETHOS like there's no tomorrow. Somehow, it defies logic. There is a hole at the bottom of my bowl, but it's not getting any bigger. Otherwise, a magnificent shave.
Saturday, May 18 ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~Rubberset 400/3~~Feather DX/Schick Proline~~Montale Aoud Cuir d'Arabie Well, the Rubberset can load as well as the "Soap Destroyer". Got my load on and reached for the DX. Fresh Proline--- (courtesy of @clint64 ) Nice 'n smooth. Excellent results. Over-sprayed the Montale (just for you, @Keithmax ) I am stankin' ever-so good.
May 18, 2024 Timeless Ti 0.95 mm Gillette 7 O’clock Black Semogue Galahad C3 Master Soap Creations Frosted Bay Rum Barberry Coast Bay Rum Aftershave Happy Saturday Everyone!! I have a feeling this one will be another quick 3017 challenge. I transferred the soap to a shave bowl. Even though it was labeled as having 170 grams of soap the net weight of the soap in the bowl was only 140 grams. So my best guess is around 50 shaves will have this one done. Take care and have a great day everyone.

@Primotenore and @brit I have a stupid question. What is the difference between the OC Aristocrat Razor and the Gillette Sheraton and Senator razors?
the sheraton and senator razors use the same head design.as the u.s 1936 OC aristocrat,36-39.just different handles/plating.in 1940 safety bars replaced the combs(ranger/milord) and the aristocrat got a new handle design.the 1934 aristocrat has a slightly different head design.thinner or thicker head and different center bar.
Sunday, May 19 ETHOS Lavender Suprême~~DG B14 Washington~~Cobra Classic/Schick Proline~~Old Spice Lime ASPushed the remaining soap towards the middle of the bowl. No more donut hole. Loaded heavy (what else is new?) with the B14. Took it directly to the face. This is a wonderfully, soft knot and really covers some territory. The Cobra Classic has one negative...the handle it quite slick. No doubt why the King Cobra came along. The OS Lime is a beaut.
Great looking shave. The CC might have a slick handle but I still think it is one of the coolest looking razors ever made.
