AS – Tabac

Good morning,
Shave testing some edges today. Finished up with my Joseph Rodgers which has a massive tang that helps provide positive grip. A truly hefty blade. The vintage travel box is home for this blade. A very nice blue Thuri-Escher-esque stone graces the top of the lid. Tabac is a proven performer too. Bassman's brush is growing on me. Have a great week fella’s. I like to look at the pics too....cool

Utica Cutlery Co. Helma 88-Jade and Brass Handled Boar Brush-Erasmic Shave Stick- Thayers Lavender-Clubman Original

Been away fro SOLTD for a little while(though I have been keeping an eye on it ).I felt that my posts were getting stale and repetative so I stepped back and just became an admirer for a bit. The Helma is a great way to step back in. I've never had a bad shave with this razor.The Erasmic was simple and effective. And who doesn't like the finish from Clubman. Have a great week everyone and a happy and safe holiday season.

RazoRock Cacao/TOBS St James Cream-Gillette FatBoy w/ Feather Blade-DB 1.5 scuttle-Glenn Ey 24MM Red Coolabah Burl-Lubriderm ASB-Gucci Pour Homme Cologne

What a Fantastic Sun! Great Lather from this mix. Gobs and Gobs of wet silky lather. I made a mistake on the Fatboy though by dialing it up to 5. Just a tad to close and took the ex-foliation up a notch with 3 passes. Clearly BBS but a little raw. Should have put my glasses on!
The Gucci is a great scent but I usually am let down by how long it lasts which is not more then a few hours. well on to football!
Paul

And I reiterate everyone else Max in offering a great big thanks for all you do on this forum and for Wet shaving!
