Thanked: 7Awesome!
Woke-up thinking about my morning run.
Then while running, I was thinking about what scent I’d use for my shave.
Went with my favorite tobacco scent, “The Full Measure of Man”.
Love the slickness of the soap. Love the skin treatment the balm gives my head and face. And I looooove the elegant scent.
The Omega (synthetic) is becoming my favorite brush. It has enough backbone to get everything in the bowl nice and lathered, without leaving slivers of soap behind that some of my softer brushes do. And it is long enough to beautifully paint the lather on my face.
And the straight razor was recently honed to perfection, so it gives an incredibly smooth and effortless shave.
Crushing Monday!
Straight: Hibbard, Spencer & Bartlett
DE: Carbon Shaving Cx-316L (head shave)
Lather: B&M “The Full Measure of Man”.
Balm: B&M “The Full Measure of Man”.
Brush: Omega (synthetic)
Bowl: Captains Choice (large)

Kama/Koch and Schafer Razor to test out...
A fine member of our group sent me a handful of tubes of shave creams direct from Poland for our Giveaway. He was also generous enough to give me one of the tubes to try out. Four different scents donated. So...
Lader Shave Cream.
Gasman custom brush and bowl.
Splash of Firefighter from Noble Otter.
I found the soap easy to lather and slick. It doesnt fade like some soaps do and it conditions the skin nicely. The cusion is lacking a little but I had no issue making a thick creamy lather. A fine soap IMO. Great for travel.It's just Sharpening, right?
