Sunday
Acqua Di Parma crema da barba/shavemac D01/Edwin Jagger DE86 with Rapira Platinum Lux/Kiehls Balsamo (sample)/Acqua Di Parma Colonia

Razor choice was rather easy as I only have two Sheffield blades the W&B *Special* won out over the Bengal this morning...

The Uberlather was "British Garden" made with Castle Forbes Lavender cream and TOBS Lavender soap and a few drops of glycerin...

The shave was topped off with TOBS Bay Rum...

I of course hummed "Hail Britiania" as I shaved

Beautiful W&B, Robert.

Razor: W&B Special
Soap: MdC
Brush: Vie-Long Badger
Post: Alum and Harris Arlington Splash

I like the theme. Gave me a good reason to hone up the W&B. I just recieved a vintage Escher and this was the first razor I finished with it. I am very pleased with the results. I am looking forward to learning this stone better.

Great shave. Some minor irritation on the neck with the alum. I was a little heavy handed...this razor requires a little more finesse.

The MdC is just a pleasure to use. No hassle creamy, thick lather. More than enough for my standard 3 pass. The scent...just fills the bathroom...as if you are now shaving in the French countryside. The best part...your face feels beautiful after.

What is there to say about Arlington that hasn't already been said.

Overall...just a great shaving experience.

Hopefully, some pictures for the next one.

Enjoy your day,

Beautiful shot and razor Robert. Matt's one re-scaled by Max is stunning also. It may be that a W&B restored and re-scaled by Max is the ultimate in cool razors.
Then on the other end of the spectrum...

Mark,
Nice choice buddy. Somehow I knew you were going to bring this baby out today, so I decided not to duplicate and instead used my "Bow" (to everyone else: NOT the "Celebrated")

Thank you Sir, I think the Bow better suites you my friend, Gentleman use the Bow razor and Red Neck Country Boys use the Fat Framebacks ! LMAO Beautiful shave Robert ! Lookin Forward to the Ladies tomorrow !!!

Prep:Hot Towel
Brush:TGN 24mm Silvertip Custom in Crimson Swirl
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream:Cade
Razor: D.C. Halsted Wedge
After shave: AOS Sandalwood
EDT: Creed Original Vetiver


Result: My only W&B is on vacation with GSSixgun, so today it is the D.C. Halsted Wedge. This sweet piece of Sheffield steel wiped away 2 days growth with ease, I only did 1 pass and some touch up. A very enjoyable shave.

There are some amazing razors on display already, and this is just day 1! GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

Razor: Dovo
Soap: Nancy Boy!
Brush: Persian Jar 1
Post: Dominica Bay Rum

Bringing the Nancy Boy cream to the forefront here...it really made this an exceptional shave.
Undoubtedly (for me) one of the slickest, thickest creams available - like warm yogurt on the bristles.
Nice to have a few more minutes on a Sunday...
