    Hi Mikko! Welcome to the SOTD action thread , nice line up! I love those little (and big ) Bengalls.

    Robert: Whatever they say about you dressing funny, it´s not true, you look good in that pre knoted tie and you should be proud of it... Lol. Well done, with the found raising!!

    Strop: Illinois 835
    Brush: Comoy Badger
    Soap: Tabac
    Razor: OCD Razors P.O.C. - Laurel DE for head shave
    A/S: Old Spice
    The Tabac was another birthday present from my wife, and it gave my a fantastic lather. Although the creator of this razor (Mr Bob Allman) found it to be a little awkward to use, I have found a technique that works for me and I find the 15/16 blade a pleasure to use. In fact, and it might just be me, but I find fixed blade razors much easier to use on the XTG & ATG passes.
    3 passes tonight and I think I can say this was the smoothest BBS I've had to date, just awesome.
    Some excellent posts in the last 24 hours, thanks guys

    Default Monday Shave

    Hot Shower
    5/8" Frederick Reynolds (commonly known as Fred Reynolds Skinny)
    VDH Boar
    Speick Shavestick
    Alum Block
    Ed Hardy Knock Off cologne

    Nice edge on the razor. Speick didn't perform as well as it normally does. Probably operator error since I was kind of in a hurry this morning.

    Tell me about it Tom...For a second last night, that's exactly what I thought. Imagine how many custom Max razors I can buy with that, LOL.

    Haha, funny Mikael...Pre-knotted tie?!! I hate those. But, thanks for the kind words. Everyone worked very hard for a long time to make this the success that it was.
