Grah & Plumacher Gotta Superfine 120, 11/16 Full Hollow, Round point
I have many favorite vintage straight razors made in Solingen and Gotta certainly is one of them. Its full hollow ground gives a quite singing and close shave, something I generally like hearing while I shave with a straight razor. I also like this "Aguzzeria del Cavallo" almond shaving soap, an artisan soap made in Bologna, in my opinion one of the very best we have in Italy. Not to mention the glorious Floïd Blue, one of my favorite aftershaves of all times. I wanted to make this shave special by using the exclusive Omega Professional 48 Gold brush, an elegant touch with its golden handle and capable of mounting a lather in very little time.

Lots and rain, bit of thunder, and some minor flooding as remnants of Hurricane Patricia makes it's way through Toronto, Ontario today.
So a cloudy wet shave today...

Same here. Started about 7 last night and is still going. Not complaining. We need the rain.

Soap Commander Love (rose)
homemade brush with a 25mm Shavemac 2 band silver tip
I finished this blade on an antique store coti. I've picked up a couple of $7.50 coti's at antique stores over the years this one has proven itself to be a nice finishing stone.
It's a yellow buckskin color, the other is more pinkish and little more aggressive. Very nice shave. Soap Commander is good stuff, I like everything about it but the name "Love". Have a good one.
