    Thumbs up Sun March 06th - Sat March 12th

    .
    Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
    Razor: Max Sprecher
    Brush: Simpson PJ 3
    Soap: Ogalla Bay Rum
    Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
    AS: Dominica BR + Ogallala BR/Sandalwood
    Summary: I took my time enjoying a full WTG, XTG, ATG shave and ended with a lovely BBS. I think I spend about an hour in the bathroom pampering myself from the shower to the final Bay Rum splash.. A very memorable shave.
    We'll also have a new SOTD theme starting next week so keep an eye out on the main SOTD forum for more info.
    Wishing everyone a superb SOTD.

    Max, well done sir. Again.
    Great kit and pics guys, cannot wait for the themed week!

    PS. I almost feel like re-posting my last SOTD picture since that Clauss left me stubble free until now... and because I really liked it and I won't get to post another until I have some hair to shave.

    Whoa, very nice so far chaps! Love the new razor, Max.

    Today's is a double test shave:



    New Forest 2211 silvertip; Ern 1360; G Myers in ripple ash; Nanny's sandalwood soft soap; Musgo Real Classic aftershave.

    The Myers is en route to a new owner. Officially it's just in for honing, but I'll be tightening it up a little and giving the scales a thin coat of oil so that it's looking its best. Nice to see this one again, I'm still pleased with it.

    1000th Post
    Location: Coffs Harbour Australia
    Strop: Illinois 835
    Brush: Comoy Badger
    Soap: Tabac
    Razor: Bengall Full Concave 11/16
    A/S Balm: Nivea Replenishing Post Shave
    A/S: Wahl Bay Rum
    I wanted a special shave for this special occasion, and so went with the latest addition to my collection. I just gave the Bengall the finishing touch today with 10 laps on the Chrome Oxide.
    Result: Absolutely fantastic shave, the edge on this baby is superb. Three passes and I now have the best BBS of my shaving career.
    Have a great week boys, thanks for all the posts and pics.
