Rock & Roll Tom. Great razor and sounds like a good tea (what kind did you have or do you like?)

Its flying away tomorrow to its new home in Denmark. I'm feeling HAD calling and I want a new coticule so it has been sold.

Hey Grant,
Sorry to hear that she had to go to make room for a Coticule, but I guess when AD sets in, one cannot ignore it. have you ID-ed a Coti you like yet?

Great Shave, Great Razor, the jury is still out however on this Ogalla soap. I like the scent but performance has been hit and miss and occassionally it seems to burn my skin just a little.

Nice blade 1OldGI. Rene sent me an Ogallala shave stick and the lather I get from it is very very nice. But I guess, as with everything else, YMMV.

Glenn,
Those look like excellent blades. Nicely done maestro and good choice. My Pipe razor is with Max being restored and rescaled as we speak. I am very excited.

Today's shave was about the "Bomb." I think it is time to order from AL.
Now, off to a nice lunch at the River Palm with some friends.

Enjoy the day Jeff...Sounds like a fun lunch. Great to hear that you are sold on Al's cremes. His cremes are hard to beat.

Very nice Bruce. It's nice seeing you back in the thick of things.

Pre-Shave: Hot shower > Lather > Strop > Hot Towel > Lather
Brush: Vintage Boar "Vero"
Razor: W.M. Elliot #73, Hollow 9/16 muted square point. Celluloid scales with snakeskin pattern.
Strop: DOVO Cowhide
Lather: New concoction: The Body Shop "Maca root" creme, Tabac soap, glycerine(WHOAH! that smells great!)
After Shave Balm: De Vergulde Hand
Results: Nick on ear . Smooth with some stubble. massive burning feeling(no redness though). I think the second shave in 2 days and/or the glycerine *cough*lack of technique*cough* is bad for my skin. Next shave(Sunday or Tuesday) no glycerine.

That was my Friday evening shave, enjoy the weekend!
