Jose,

By all means! Speick is a shave cream that I purchased when I began shaving with a DE razor. I've never used it for a straight razor shave because I always had some difficulty getting it to lather well. Combining it with the Erasmic today, however, resulted in a nice lather. If you add a few drops of glycerin you should get even more lather.

BTW...The fragrances of the Speick and the Erasmic also seem to complement, not clash with each other. That's a nice touch.

Thank you Jose, Sadly those scales have some damage. Seems like they where put onto something hot and there is a slight melt mark. I dont care tho, they work and look rather pretty

Thank you! I appreciate that. Today was the maiden voyage and I was not disappointed.

Does this mean I'm kicked out of the brotherhood?

Thank you, Maestro of the SOTD Chris is an English brush maker, he turns the handles himself and he doesn´t have a own name for the brushes, but his name is Chris and it´s my Chris Craft, not to far from my Polo 8 in super two band. Very nice brush anyhow.

Thanks on both counts Mikael, i.e., compliments and info

Cleaned my whiskers off but it actually hurts.

Ouuuuuch Jeff,
I bet this shave will go down in the books as "unforgettable". It's amazing how much we (and our face) get spoiled by smooth and irritation-free shaves from our DE/straights.

Happy birthday to mom

Thank you José. But I am afraid that it's you (and others) that set the precedence for awesomeness.

Beautiful gear Frank. Love the Rex...made of Swedish (Assab) steel, I think.
