    After 14 years of this, after $$thousands$$, and after all the wonderful shaving experiences, perfect shaves, outstanding scents, textures, and 'hairsplitting' differences between everything.
    This shave is in my top 3.
    a Van Der Hagen puck
    a $10 boar
    a 60 cent blade
    a $3 splash
    and whatever razor that has efficiencies that match your mug
    Absolutely stupendous shave with a post shave that lasts into tomorrow.
    WTF
    lol

    Getting myself ready for the warmer months.

    I absolutely love my darker, deeper, autumn/winter scents. But it’s time to start changing to lighter, crisper scents.

    I’m pulling-out one of my favorites - A&E’s “Peach Cognac”.

    Not the wifey favorite (6 out of 10), but definitely one of my favorites.

    Great lather. Super slick. Delicious (but elegant) scent.

    Great face and head shave this morning, after my run and workout.

    Straight: Koraat 14-2.0 (custom shortened)
    DE: Carbon Shaving CX-316L (head shave)
    Lather: A&E “Peach Cognac”
    Balm: Wholly Kaw “Bare Naked” (Unscented)
    Splash: A&E “Peach Cognac”
    Brush: Wolf Whiskers (Shavemac Silvertip)
