~ (note / disclaimer) for quite some time I have been listing my fave brush as the Edwin Jagger silvertip with clear acrylic handle, this is a brush that was discontinued, and I realized that it may be a super badger, not exactly sure anymore, but still my fave
~ Tabac cream in the tube, fantastic all around, I think that this is the or one of the best all around creams, it is very very good on sensitive skin like mine, very comfortable
~ Ogallala Bay Rum with Sandalwood, my fave
~ Edwin Jagger Sandalwood Aftershave Balm

Very Excellent!

BigIan,

Congratulations on your initiation into the world of str8 razor shaving.

Don't worry...It will only get better--even with a few nicks and cuts. They come with the territory.

Woke up early to a Wostenholm Pipe razor..The yellowheart scales are my own meager attampt at being Max like.... The a/s is Ogallala Sandalwood, that I saw sometouting on this forum when i was still a voyeur on the site. Thanks to whoever that was! The brush was bought within the last year...After I learned that my twenty year old Walgreens brush was finally falling apart...I saw a thread on Badger hair here on SRP so I bought one...THe shave oil was also another recommendation...So, saying all that...THis mornings shave has been brought to you by.......You guys!

THANKS!!!!
