Way past due on this one, here you go Max and Bob,
Razor: R.C.Allman 8/8's custom scaled by ThePhill
Brush: 26mm Silvertip in Birdseye Maple by.....ThePhill
Soap: Mama Bears Aromatic Pipe Tobacco
Scuttle: Georgetown G4
Post: Cold Water
A.S. Ogallala Bay Rum
And a little spray of Ogallala Bay Rum Cologne to top it off. Man what a beast of a shaver, I slacked a little with my prep which is a bad idea for me thanks to a very tough beard but the big blade from OCD Razors plowed through to a great shave!

Thanked: 137Today's shave:
Brush: Semogue 2015
Soap: TGQ Autumn Spice
Razor: EJ 89 w Astra Blade
AS: none
Shave: BBS is two passes, zero irritation despite it being the 3rd shave on this blade. I'm rather worried about the brush though, the cracking and failing of the finish is noticeably worse than it was a week or so ago. Roll on my new job so I can buy a new brush and save this one for special occasions.
