    Saturday, March 12th

    Razor: Wilkinson Sticky
    Blade: Super Iridium
    Brush: Saville Row 3322
    Pre-Shave: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
    Soap: Yardley Shave Soap
    A/S: Acca Kappa Cedro aftershave

    After Teiste's post on Yardley soap last night, I was spurred to action. I grabbed my newly acquired Saville Row 3322 (nice brush btw) and instantly generated mounds of rich creamy lather. Although many gents mention that their vintage Yardley has lost its scent, that is not the case with this puck...it smells great. My Trusty Sticky/Iridium combo did its usual superb job and the Acca Kappa Cedar splash was a fine finish. Funny thing about the cedar splash...I really like the scent but do not detect any cedar. Go figure!

    I worked on these razors this week. The Clauss was a pain to set the bevel. Went through the Jant progression on both. I must have had 3 days of growth. 2 passes to a great shave. Could have use 2 touch up spots but want to shave tomorrow.

    Tony miller strop
    Dr Harris + Salter Vetyver + Glycerin
    Cadman and Clauss
    Skin food

    Awesome job guys. I will see you tomorrow for Theme week!

    Thiers Issard was also there and sold some vintage razors



    And there were also some guns....

    Sorry, I'm so stupid, drove some hours at the German "Autobahn"...maybe I was as fast with my posts like I drove with my BMW X5.
    Excuse my!

    ok, I deleted the articles in the wrong thread.
    Thanks, Bela.
