Santa Maria la Novella crema da Barba/shavemac D01 two band/Parker 97R with Shark Super Chrome/Burberry ASB

Today I sat in a meeting all day. I wanted to be shot. Got home, took a nice shower and shave. All is well.

Hot Shower
Warm Oil
Dirty Bird Scuttle
Proraso Shave cream
SRPP1 25 on felt, 50 on leather
Hibbard,Spencer, Bartlett & Co., Our Very Best, Full Hollow
AOS Aluminum
Thayers Rose Petal
Vaseline for men.

First time for this blade. Very nice, smooth. Needs a bit more refinement on a finisher I think. Maybe I'll run it on the Coti a few times and see where it goes from there.

Enjoy the evening.

Nice shot Teiste .
Here's what I am noticing from the past few posts...The Parker 97R has made appearances too many times in a row, leading me to believe that it's (a) your favorite razor, or (b) you don't have enough razors in the collection...Should the latter hold true, then in an effort to remedy the situation, this forum and its participants should start fueling your RAD . What do you think?

PS: Of course, I am kiddin' and it's all in good fun (hope you don't mind)

Uuughhhh...I know how you feel Jeff. I hate meetings that never end . It's exhausting and mostly useless. Glad it's over and you had a good shave to compensate

Great looking blade btw

Nice Solgen brotha

With all these phenomenal shaves going around, a mediocre one was bound to pop up. The FON could use a bit better bevel work. Major potential though.

The Suita then pulled ahead once again. Tomorrow begins the nagura progression comparison!

Wooo-hoooo thanks for keeping us posted I think I need to go spend some time with my stones
