    Sounds like a great brush, razor, soap combination.

    Tonight's shave was with another Japanese Razor. I had a nice 2 pass shave, that left me with a DFS. Zero issues.


    Razor- Japanese Pimp Stick(Not Really). It's an "Old Cherry". With crackled Mother Of Pearl scales.
    Brush- Stirling Boar. One of the best feeling boars I own.
    Soap- Arko/Avon Spicy
    Aftershave- Pinaud Clubman

    Da, time with the curvy Russian was well rewarded. :happy036: I tried out vetiver for the first time. On Mike’s site he warns it is a polarizing shave. Kind of smells like dank earth to me. Can’t say I love it but don’t hate it either. Maybe it’ll grow on me.

    Hot water preparation
    AOS Lavender PSO
    Mike’s Natural Soaps Vetiver
    Romera Wengue Chubby Manchurian Badger
    1970s Utro STIZ 11/16
    Thayers Rose Petal Witch Hazel

    Jayaruh #292 HMW Badger
    Fredrick Reynolds 5/8
    CWR
    Thayer's Peach WH
    Tabac AS

    I started off with Proraso Pre Shave. The LaToja Shaving Soap face-lathered well with the Jayaruh #292 High Mountain White badger brush. I did two passes with the Fredrick Reynolds 5/8 Razor and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Thayer's Peach WH and then Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    It was a very nice and enjoyable two pass shave this morning with my Genco Red Cross razor. I’m as smooth as silk!

    We want to see. Don't be shy.

    :drool: sweet! Can you feel any difference between the EPBD and the 'standard' 14?
