Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W Razor: Max Sprecher Brush: Simpson Polo 10 Soap: L'Occitane Cade Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel ASB: E-Shave - After Shave Soother EDC: Acca Kappa - Cedro Summary: I had to to test shave a few razors today but unfortunately I didn't have much beard stubble left as I had such a close shave last Thursday. But I as able to enjoy a few strokes with the custom. It left me with a big smiling grin on my face. The invigorating L'occitane Cade and the Acca Kappa Cedro were also a perfect match for another gorgeous sunny day here in the desert. Wishing you all a superb new SOTD. P.S. Robert, drive safe! and welcome to Las Vegas.

Location: Coffs Harbour AustraliaGrant
Prep: Hot Shower/Hot towel
Strop: Illinois 835
Brush: FS Finest Badger
Soap: Tabac
Razor: Bengall 11/16
Astringent: Thayer's Original Witch Hazel
A/S: Wahl Bay Rum
Result: Just 2 passes tonight resulting in a very smooth clean face. I might give the Bengall a touch-up next time I get the hones out, not because its getting bad, just because I know it can be better. Cant complain though, it's been a LONG time since its seen a hone. It retains it's edge very well. A very enjoyable Sunday night shave.
Have a great week fella's

Tom, I thought Robert explained this one to you. You just have to send some of your hard earned shekels to Max and a Maxterpiece will come your way. Of course, it may be too late now that Robert is en route to Las Vegas--the Maxterpieces are all being hoarded in Las Angeles. Anyone else notice the parallelism between Max's hometown and Roberts? Maybe that explains the Maxeum Robert is creating! Originally Posted by eTom

Thanks for your wishes, friends.
We start in a few hours to Berlin, stay in a hotel one night and tomorrow we fly to Tel Aviv.
I report each day!
Stay tuned.
