June 7, 2023 OneBlade FHS-10 Semogue Mistura Taj MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Happy Hump Day Everyone!!! This week has already been one for the books and it's only half way through. I really can't complain since the good daily shaves have continued.
Hello, fellow 3017'ers. Yours truly is currently here: Had to deal with some pretty poor air-quality the past two days, but, thankfully, today's air is MUCH improved. Only shaved twice. Gear includes Viggo cream, RR Game Changer, CH2 Synthetic, Iced Florida Water. See you in the funny papers.
June 8, 2023 Feather AS-D2 Feather PAA Shaverite 210 with Mix Knot MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Another great shave to start the day. I am going through the MdC at a pretty quick pace. I will be leaving at home later this month when we take an extended trip.
June 9, 2023 Hone 15S Feather Paladin MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Happy Friday!!! I really like the Hone 15s. I love the design and it delivers great shaves. I have 53 grams of soap left so I would guess around 25 shaves more or less to knock this thing out.
Thank you Jason. I’ve gotten lazy about outdoor photos. The rock garden is right off the patio. I was having an adult beverage and thought an outdoor picture would be nice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Since this puck of QCS is old there is very little scent left, plus it also makes a great base for a super lather. Since the weather is getting hot I decided to add AoS Peppermint shave cream to the mix. When opened the tub I was suprised to see what progress I made... so I will add the AoS and titanic the AoS Peppermint and QCS together. Friday's shave featured my smiling JWest SK-3 and Shavemac brush. Saturday's shave was smiling 6/8 Riga Razor and a Zenith boar brush. The lather both days was 'super'.
June 10, 2023 Karve “D” Plate Feather Semogue Torga C5 MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Nothing new to report here. Just continuing to knock out the Mdc soap. I can safely say the Myrsol will outlast the MdC.
Saturday, June 10 AoS Lemon~~Simpson Emperor 3~~RazoRock Game Changer .84/Sharp Star Day Seven Returned from our vacation and was in desperate need of some thorough personal hygiene. Began with a previously-used Sharp Star and it was quite dull, so swapped it out for a new one. Much better. The AoS Lemon is no softer than when I left, but it is also not as rock-hard either. I continue to load directly from of the tub (something that would be unheard of with a fresh tub of this product) The lather is---as usual, quite slick and protective. Eschewed the stank, rather opting for some Nivea ASB. I do not care for their latest iteration, and will not re-purchase.
Sunday, June 11 AoS Lemon~~TSN X LE~~Feather AS-D2/Sharp Star~~Terre d'Hermès Parfum Day Eight Not much to remove, so I chose a razor with a smaller blade gap. Don't be fooled, however, the AS-D2 will cut you just like every razor will* No cuts today. Homage to the defunct TSN, with this LE brush. Smelling great with the TdH Parfum. * that statement is, of course, ridiculous. It is the BLADE that cuts you NOT the razor. Sorry for that cray-cray statement.
Monday back to work shave, QCS only, no super lather today. Drew Dick smiling 6/8, Varlet brush and Tabarome had me smelling nice.
June 12, 2023 OneBlade Genesis Gem PTFE with spine removed Simpson CH2 Synthetic MdC Fougère Myrsol Agua Balsamica Wow, I had a rough weekend. Our hot water heater burst and flooded my wife's craft room. In addition to getting the repair done, it was a real hassle getting all the water up out of the carpet and the drying process started. At least it's Monday and I can get back to regular work. I decided to breakout the OneBlade. This particular razor can use, Gem blades with just the spine removed. This makes one of my favorite razors even better. This OneBlade delivers me an idiot proof fantastic shave and that's exactly what I needed this morning.
