Have a nice day!

Very cool scales. I am quickly, if not already, a huge W&B fan.

I knew it was off topic, but shaving and sunrise/sunset photo's relax me. So I figured someone else may enjoy also.

O.K. gents,
because some of you like my scales (I'm not a Pro!)
I'll show you the 3 of my W&B's I rescaled.
It's too bad that I got these blades without or with destroyed scales.

If the Straightrazor is closed- most of the details you can see at the blades.
Enjoy!

Prep: Hot Shower w/ Bulgari White Tea conditioner on beard
Strop: Kanayama (35/70)
Razor: John Engstrom Frameback
Brush: Vulfix Silvertip
Lather: Ogallala Bay Rum (Thanks Rene) + CarrieM Bay Rum (Thanks Karen) + 8 drops Glycerin
Astringent: Thayer's Lavender
ASB: CarrieM After Shave Milk (Unscented)
EdT: Creed Royal Delight



What a nice shave today! The lather was divine; it was so slick I almost had trouble stretching the skin. And that scent is intoxicating; it got me thinking back a couple of years to a wonderful day on the beach in Maui! The After Shave Milk Karen sent to me is terrific. It is very moisturizing without leaving any oil. She's made me an instant fan - as she does with all of her products. I'm BBS and ready to start the day...

Razor: Klas Tornblom 13/16 - ebonite scales

Bill,
Forget the shave...Love the picture in the background. You two look fabulous. Simply beautiful . Of course your shave gear too ...you brought out your famous frameback.

Pre-Shave: Hot shower + Stephan's Conditioning Smooth Shave Creme

Razors: 13/16" Filarmonica Doble Temple #13, Hollow, Square Point

Brush: 23mm Shavemac Silvertip Badger

Überlather: CarrieM Oakmoss Shave Creme + Mama Bear's Myrrh Shave Soap + Glycerin

Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel (Lavender, no alcohol)

ASB: Truffit & Hill Trafalgar

Facial Moisturizer: Trumper's Facial Moisturizer

Cologne: Penhaligon Racquets

Result: Seems we have a few Fili shaves between yesterday and today...so, break the trend? I decided to use my DT #13 today. What a shave. As always, CarrieM's creme was a delight to use for lather , especially when mixed in with some Mama Bear soap and a few drops of glycerin. Great cushion and glide. If you haven't tried CarrieM's cremes yet, you don't know what you are missing. I used 3 passes and got a smooth BBS skin, ready for a Tuesday filled with nothing but meetings...Uuughhhhh!!

Have a great day guys . I am loving your SOTDs. Keep them coming.

The shave looks great, and your Fili makes me anxious to get mine back from being honed!

A.Feist & Co. Lunawerk
New Forest 2201
Mem sc
Thayers Cucumber WH w/ aloe
Musgo Real a/s balsam
GFT Spanish Leather cologne

A terrific shave with the Lunawerk and Mem combination. I have been stropping with a nylon webbing strop prior to the leather since I picked it up off a B/S/T but recently went back to canvas which seems to work better for me. The Lunawerk was smooth and gentle and a damn fine shave was the result.
