Thread: Sun March 27th - Sat April 2nd

Well, I must say it's looking rather snazzy round here, and the photos are well up to the usual high standard of course. Well done everybody.

Today's was actually a three way test shave, but this rather unassuming razor did most of the work anyway. It's a get-you-started blade for a beginner transplanted into salvaged scales, but it took a nice edge and I'm very clean shaven this evening



Pradat-Brun 5/8 (don't you just love that stamp?); New Forest 2211 silvertip; Nanny's "The Spicy One" soft soap; Taylor's St James aftershave.

Prep:Hot Shower
Brush:TGN 24mm Premium A Custom
Strop:SRD PIV English Bridle
Cream:Bayrum & Vetiver Bomb
Razor:Henckels 401
After shave: Brut
EDT: Cuba Red



Result:I did a quick 2 pass shave this morning as I was a bit rushed with it being Monday and all. The Henckels performed beautifully.

Thanks

Glenn

Great shaving mug Glenn! If you don't mind, where did you get it?

Thanks Greg! It is an old piece of Sears & Robuck advertising and I picked it up off Ebay. I use it to soak the brush every morning

Are you still planning on making it to the Mid Mo Meetup @ Lynn's place?

Cheers

Glenn

Brad,
Forget the shave and the gear my friend. It's great to see you here again. Always a treat. But, seriously nice blade. I hope that all is well in your neck of the woods.

beautiful job Tom...I also like that faucet. Gives you room to maneuver too. You need more than just one brush in there, LOL

Thank you Béla. I snatched it from Rene a few months back. I wasn't sure at first, until I shaved with her for the first time (after honing her up).

What do you think about?

Great idea, but I have already taken my shots for the week (too short on time in the AMs)...But, I will post the flags with the picture tomorrow.

Stop teasing me with that Blackie. David has another one (7/8") that just as amazing as this. I can't control RAD anymore
