Today has been great, 52 mile ride on my bicycle which clipped the corner of 4 counties and I'm just about to put the beef in the oven for a classic British roast. Happy Days!

Le Jaguar Special No. 707 | Simpson No. 62 | Vintage Cavalier | Caldey Island Lavender

ALL THINGS TABAC

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: 26mm Simpson "Chubby 2", Super Badger

Razor: 13/16" Toyo Scheön Burg #775, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point

Honing Regimen: Maruichi Nakayama Kiita/Asagi Hybrid (w/ Tomonagura slurry, ending with water only)

Strop: 0/0/0 (Neil Miller Linen / Imperial Horsehide leather / Imperial Cordovan leather)

Überlather: Tabac Shave Creme + Tabac Shave Soap + Glycerin

Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol)

Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer

After Shave Splash: Tabac AS

Cologne: Tabac EdT

Results: It just felt like a TABAC morning today...What a wonderful treat with this software. Everything the "perfect" lather should be is captured by this creme/soap (either alone or in combination). The Scheön Burg was no slouch either. Just for the fun of it, I refreshed her edge with the Kiita/Asagi hybrid JNat and was rewarded with a delightful shave. It's definitely going to be a great day.

Have a BEAUTIFUL Sunday gentlemen .

[ATTACH=CONFIG]No shave yet today due to some weather considerations. Once I know Irene has left for good, I'll take the time to enjoy the day. We were lucky, house did not flood or loose power. Hope everyone else who was in harms way is OK.

Thanks Irene.

Glad to hear your OK mate. I was thinking about you this morning. I heard on the radio that the damage in NYC was a lot less than expected, but Jersey still got a pretty good beating.

Beautiful razor mate. Very well done
