    Thumbs up Sun January 30th - Sat February 05th

    .
    Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
    Razor: Revisor - Dovo 55
    Brush: Simpson Polo 10
    Cream: Castle Forbes Lime
    Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
    ASB: QED Lime
    AS: Booster Lime
    Results: Tonight's shave was a test shave so I used each razor for every pass. The Revisor WTG, The Ebony Dovo 55 XTG and the Blue Paua Dovo for my last ATG. Needless to say I don't have 1 stubble left. Went lime all the way. From the famous performing Castle Forbes, slick moisturizing QED and Booster's exquisite lime smelling AS. Talk about a memorable shave.
    Wishing everyone a superb SOTD.!

    Default Sunday morning

    Pre. Hot shower
    Brush: Simpson PJ 3
    Razor: Henkotsu
    Soap/Cream: Nannys Patchouli and Da Bomd (cheers Bill!)
    AS: Mennen
    Strops: Neil Miller
    Result: Very, very clean
    Decided to try and go for some super lather, it was good, but I got it to thin. Liked the scent combo though (pure patchouli wasn´t my thing). Nick visited today, under the jawline, this point is no joke.

    As soon as I began tonights shave I remembered that last time I used this razor it was in need of a touch-up.
    Result: Not the best shave I've ever had. I wasnt game to try an ATG pass so stopped at 2 passes.This blade needs some work, I might pull the whole thing apart and give it a proper restore actually. Apart from a honing this is pretty much how I found it in an Antique Store.
    Some Great post already boys, Got to get me a Kamisori on of these days.
    Have a great week gentlemen.

    Location: Not at home a place in Norway this morning.

    Was at a visit this weekend, and had just brought a DE razor and one brush, but I survived

    Merkur 39C Slant Sledgehammer
    Feather Blade
    Shavemac D01 26 mm two band
    TOBS Avocado cream
    Alun
    Gentlemens Tonic Aftershave cream

    Result was BBS, but I find it much more pleasing to shave with a Straight!

    And it is not me in the picture

    Have a great Sunday everybody.

    The new thread started with amazing pictures, friends. Thanks for sharing.

    @Grant:
    There's only a little bit snow left in our region, but it is very cold.
