Currently 53 degrees F on the way to a high this afternoon of 77 degrees F. Near perfect weather, not too cold, not too hot (yet). Definitely too nice a day to be inside (at work) all day but a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

I love Hawaiian Coffee! Sounds like you're having a great day...well except for the being at work part

No, Glenn, I had her rescaled by Max back in November... She's graced these hallowed SOTD pages a few times since then.

Thanks, Glenn. Congratulations on your 1st anniversary at SRP.

Glenn, congrats on the one year anniversary.

Today's Shave was earlier in the afternoon but I had to run out and take her shopping.

Started with a hot shower and Burt's Bees rubbed into the whiskers for softening.
Warm oil (home made)
Hannah Ceramic bowl
New Forest Badger Brush
Geo Trumper Violet Shave cream
Dubl Duck Wonderedge by Max
Stropped 40 on Ambrose Cotton and 40 leather
Also used a Roo Strop I got from Mick, 50 laps. Nice draw on the Roo
Aqua Velva Ice Blue As
Vaseline for men

What can I say about this razor except fabulous shave. It never fails to provide a wonderful BBS shave.

Enjoy the day!!!

Blissful shave... That's a nice brush and blade

Thanks Mikael,
Well...It's on order and shipped already so we'll see in several days.

PS: I've been doing a bit of research (articles etc) in my free time and learning some interesting facts about the chemistry and biochemistry of scents (Essential Oils and Sandalwood in general). Once I finish, I will be posting in a thread some of my thoughts about these scents. The whole thing is incredibly interesting and complex.

Never mind us big guy, we're just being silly. Nice gear though and great looking brush :-)
