    11/16 Touron-Parisot, soap was the new and excellent Floris 89 hard soap lathered with an equally excellent Simpsons two-band Tulip 3. Floris AS finished things off of course. The ~165 year old razors still deliver a wonderful shave.

    They look so nimble, but are such good shavers. I must get mine ready.

    My heartthrob got the call today. It’s a quarter hollow at best from 1825 and requires a little more work than a fuller hollow. But, I love it and it’s settling in after three shaves with it now. :happy036:

    Argan Oil PSO

    Cold Water Rinse
    Proraso Green Tea and Oatmeal Shave Cream
    B-400 Badger by Tom
    Gravjura 5/8
    CWR
    Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve Cologne

    The Proraso Green Tea and Oatmeal Shave Cream face-lathered well with B-400 Badger by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Gravjura 5/8 razor gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Pinaud Clubman Special Reserve Cologne. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    A bonus shave today, as I received a PIF from @Old School

    Boker Red Injun no. 101 - shave ready out of the box
    Stirling Clubman
    Clubman AS
    Another custom brush that was a gift, this time in badger. It provides a great lather and feels like a pillow on the face.

    It was a wonderful shave.
