Bob, I always enjoy seeing that brush. That knot suits that beautiful handle, extremely well. Good choice on the knot. :)

A real treat this morning a friend sent me 3 Samples of Soap to try , This is the 1st one Atomic Age Bay Rum and what an amazing scent , it is I believe the PAA Standard base which for me is every bit as good as their premium CK6 base , they are both excellent.
Usual great PAA Performance and a wonderful scent.

Great shave on this chilly and windy Northern California morning.
Wanted to change it up a bit, so I went with a narrower 5/8” blade this morning - my Shapleigh “Diamond Edge”.
I got this straight razor super cheap. (Maybe a $15 find). But it is one of my sharpest straights.
Holds a crazy sharp edge, and it’s my #2 straight razor for sharpness.
Cheap to purchase. Pretty easy to find. And I highly recommended this to anyone looking for a super “every day” straight.
And since I am still following my autumn/winter scents, I went with Barrister & Mann’s “Hallows”.
Great shave soap, a fantastic balm, with a soft and elegant scent. It’s a unique Halloween scent...but me and the wifey both love it for year round use.
No splash needed, as the balm scent is around a 5 or 6 in my book, and last for hours without being overpowering to those around me.
Great shave!
Two more weeks left of my vacation, and I’m getting ready to keg my home brew this afternoon.
It’s a good day. ❤️

So I restored a new “straight” last night.
It’s an old Shumate which I picked-up for $5.00.
I hated the ugly banana-colored scales. And since they were celluloid, I chucked them, and designed and made new ones.
I’ll attach a few “before and after” photos.
The straight came out outstanding.
Cracee sharp edge!
So I used it this morning after my run and workout.
I’m keeping with my autumn/winter scents, so it is “Hallows” again this morning.
Great soap (fantastic slickness), great balm, and great scent.
Perfect for this chilly morning.
