Day 6 Bottom of tub exposed itself this morning. Not as wide a tub as others, so not as many shaves left in it as usual. This Omega Evo knot is a soap killer as well.
Mos def©, Primo eschewed today's shave (Mos def©, check, 3rd person, double-check, eschewed, triple-check, Font Trebuchet MS, quadruple-check) Ladies and Germs, Primo just hit an INSIDE THE PARK HOME RUN.
My first 3017 shave will be on Throwback Thursday. Let's see if I can make it theough the "week" till the next TT.
Wednesday, February 8 Day Seven T+S Kyoto~~CH2 Synthetic~~British Red Tip/7 O'Clock Black~~Swiss Arabian Mukhalat Malaki I transferred the remaining soap into my Aesop SS bowl. You know what that means? Yup, it means the light at the end of the tunnel. Before I swoon, there are quite a few shaves to be had, before the death bell starts tolling. The Super-Speed was awesome. It held the Gillette blade securely and looked great doing so. Swiss Arabian for the Middle-Eastern finish.
The opener of my 3017 project didn't go so well. At least I worked it down a bit, in 3017 terms. THAT part was good.
Day 7 & 8 Same set up the past two days. One of the real advantages to 3017ing a soap is the ability to truly dial in the lather day after day regardless of brush and other factors (hence the origins of the 30 day focus, but I digress). This soap needs to be loaded until it is thick and pasty and doesn’t need to be watered all the way until thinning out. It has been thick and slick.
