    Cool Ohhhhh Sooooo Cool !!

    Ahhhhh a nice relaxing shave all to myself this morning...

    So as the clouds have rolled in, and the the temperature dropped quickly this weekend, I spent most of the week on the big tractor getting the road in shape before the rain this week froze and turned to snow...
    Switching from the Box Scraper to the Snowblower setting all the engine heaters and float chargers... Yes this is what living really out in the boonies is all about Tonight I have to double check all the freeze outlets and make sure all the heat lamps and heat tape turn on at 35 degrees I so love getting ready for winter in the country...

    So this morning I picked out the King Pelican Kamisori style #14 razor, I had re-honed this one some time back using my Nakayama and really enjoyed my last shave with it.. I stropped it up 25/50 on the matching King Pelican strop..
    I have been trying shaving before the morning shower again lately, using just steamed towels for prep...
    The lather was Domenico Caraceni whipped up with a re-knotted Old-Spice brush 24 mm Silvertip..
    I did one WTG pass, re-lathered and did a Multi-directional pass followed by a super light clear water touch up pass and done...
    After a long hot shower I used Davidoff's Cool Water collection throughout from the Shower Gel, to the Aftershave, then the Balm, and followed finally with the EDT
    The shave was FANTASTIC but the attention from the wife since I wasn't wearing, her words "Grandpa scent" was even better

    This razor has always been one of my favorites but with the new Nakayama edge it is very hard to beat....

    Have a great Weekend guys

    Thank You! GSSixgun (Glen) did this razor and the scales. The acrylic is called "Smoke" and they are even better looking in person.

    I'm exhausted just reading about all that pre-winter prep, you deserve a great shave! Great setup you have there Glen! It's a treat when we get to see "The Masters" like you and Max post your personal razors

    Cheers!

    Quite a chore Glen...but what an EXCELLENT way to reward yourself afterward . With the King Pelican no less.
