Mikael,
I see sky blue everywhere :y. Beautiful shot, colors and blade :bow
Bill,
You have officially gone Stone Crazy:roflmao. Someone call the authorities. Great experiment
I LOVE it Glenn :tu. Frosty is a great addition. I know what you mean about nostalgia in regards to the "firsts" we do. Mine was GFT creme.
Not sure what you are trying to say here :thinking:. I think it has something to do with Lavender :hmmm:?!!
Love the shave buddy. Great shot:tu
in addition:
mining has a long tradition in Saxony.
Hundreds of years ago the silver brought a lot of money to Saxony.
Later it was the coal and the russians got our Uranium (for less).
Georgius Agricola was born in my hometown Glauchau.

Thats why miner & angel are very traditionell in our region.
That's quite interesting, Tom.
I respect alot of people, but Miners are a group unto themselves, and I hold a special place in my psyche for all of them.
I hold my breath whenever there are miners trapped underground in any part of the world... It's a tragedy that knows no boundaries or geo-political borders.
I'm joyous when they are heroically saved, and sad when the worst happens.
It takes a special person to toil in the bowels of the earth!
SRP's 10th Anniversary Shave
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Razor: 7/8" Akamatsu M-55 "Limited Edition", Full Hollow, Spike Point Brush: 22mm New Forest Silvertip Badger Überlather: CarrieM "Orange Spice" Shave creme + Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap + Glycerin Astringent: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol) Moisturizer: Dr. Hauschka's Rose Day Creme After Shave Balm: Al Raz "Spicy Orange" ASB Result: Monday (I think) was a special day (SRP's 10th Anniversary) and to commemorate the event, I decided to spice things up a bit today. Starting this shave with the new custom CarrieM Orange Spice creme and ending it to the tune of Al Raz' Spicy Orange balm, the Manaslu was a natural fit in this process. I got this beauty a little over 2 weeks ago and honed it up using Naniwa 1k (bevel) followed by the Asagi (w/ Botan, Mejiro, Koma and Tomonagura progression). This bade was one of the easiest blades I have honed...A to Z in 30 minutes with hair popping results (literally). The "Spicy Orange" theme was absolutely invigorating as the aroma engulfed the den for the entire duration of the shave. Why did it have to end? Why:gaah:? I can see myself growing old in my den, spending my life smelling and enjoying this stuff. Could this be the genesis of a shave fetish? I wonder:shrug:.
