Great shot Max! Makes me miss the desert. Every day in summer looks like that. I might be making a trip in fall.

Hot Shower
24mm TGN Extra Hair Badger in Custom Handle
TOBS Soap
Baby Frederick Reynolds
Aqua Velva Classic Ice


Oh what a nice relaxing shave after a super busy weekend. The Baby FR wiped away two days growth without the slightest hesitation. This blade took an awesome edge on the BBW and it is still going strong.

No,I did not shaved the Bonsai with my just got it Henckels ,neither soaped it with the Acca Kappa nor splashed it with the Polo.The leaves started to shed due to over-nourished with plant food,it has been like that for the last 3 months but I still believe that it will grow new ones. SotD was without my still on the flight,a Badger, a special gift from Italy.Maestro Robert will have to wait..

Have a fabulous shave gentlemen

Prep:Hot shower
Brush:H.L. Thater 23mm
Strop:SRD PIV
Cream: Frankincense, Myrrh, Vetiver Bomb
Razor: C Jul Herbertz
After shave: Frankincense, Myrrh, Vetiver Custom ASB
EDT: Cartier Roadster


Result: This razor shaves very nicely and considering the shave was @ 3:15 A.M. I really appreciate that.

Today was a travel day (had to be at the airport @ 4:30a.m.) and just now got in from the office. I had a connecting flight in Atlanta and I made the most of it by picking us some Cade (we don't have these stores in St. Louis). I can't wait to give it a whirl.

Thank for the kind wishes Moonbeam ...my wife and I wish the same to you and your loved ones. I must say though that my wife and I actually do not "really" celebrate Valentine's day. It's become too commercial and retail centric. Besides, we don't subscribe to the philosophy of "cheapening" our feelings by taking one day out of 364 available to tell one another how we feel . We have gotten used to doing so every day (well...almost everyday ).

PS: I had missed seeing your posts...thanks. it's great seeing your gear . You finally got the Acca Kappa. The creme is more amazing than the soap, but I have come to appreciate the soap as well (once you get to find it's sweet spot)...Of course, the two together are a fabulous duo

Can't wait for you to post what you get from Italy. Congrats on the Henckels...she's a beauty for sure. Love those blades...Tried and true to their name and reliable performers.

Welcome back home Glenn...Hope you like the Cade...for $10, you can't beat the value.

No pix, as today was a 5 AM start time (like most days, earlier on some)

Soap: Proraso
Brush: AOS Badger
SR: JB Eyre 4/8 Round Tip w/ notch
