    Prep: hot shower
    Brush: Muhle, 25 mm
    Razor: Three Crosses
    Cream: YArdley London (from India )
    AS: Blue Floid + Tiger face lotion (cold here now)
    Strops: Neil Miller

    First time with this cream ... very good cover and nice texture, but I would like more slip from it, however it was the first time and I could have been off some re technique.


    ... and some lovely coffee:

    Razor – John Heiffor – For the Army
    Brush – Custom Semouge Excelsior Texugo
    Soap – GFT Limes
    AST – ALUM
    AS – GFT Limes & Skinfood Lime

    Good morning,
    A day of days. Called in to action the John Heiffor Army chopper. This one got some new pants in ivory from Walt, “DirtyChrome”. The Ol timey washers are made by Richard “Geezer”. I broke down and used tape on this one to help keep the lines smooth. It works. That’s an understatement.

    Sunday

    iKon OSS
    Personna Prep
    KMF Cool Mint Shave Cream
    Unknown Silvertip
    L'Oreal After Shave Balm
    Old Spice Classic Cologne

    After ten days with the Cobra Classic it was strange getting back to a regular double edge razor. But old habits never die. A wonderful smooth and irritation free shave. I always start with the open comb side then switch to closed bar for ATG and finish off with the open end. This seems to work for me with great results.

    PREP: Hot shower with Proraso pre shave
    RAZOR: Goodfella
    BLADES: Feather
    BRUSH: Simpson chubby 2 Band
    CREAM: Bluebeards Revenge
    ASTRINGENT: Thayers
    ASB: Bluebeards
    EDT:Thierry Muglar " cologne"
    RESULTS: MILD BUT BBS IRRITATION FREE SHAVE

    Well Frank (Fbones) graciously let me borrow his Goodfella razor ( thanks again Frank!) after I had interest in buying one but was worried that it was going to be too mild of a shaver. Well a mild razor it is, and It took me a full 3 passes to get BBS, but I was irritation free and smoooooth. So I think I will be putting it on my list of things to buy soon.I also loved the way it felt, with the lower head profile. The blubeards always delivers and outstanding lather and matched with the asb it was divine.

    HAVE A MAGICAL SUNDAY GENTS!!!!

    Sunday morning:

    Prep: Face wash
    Brush: Haryali badger
    Soap: Crabtree & Evelyn Nomad
    Scuttle: R. Becker large
    Razor: John Barber, 5/8 wedge
    Honing: Touched up on a Dragon's Tongue
    Result: Very nice, smooh and relaxing 2-pass shave. I had a picture of today's shave all ready to post when all of a sudden my PC crashed something bad and I had to reinstall my operating system. Looks like my network card is fried, but I'm basially all thumbs in these matters. Posting from wife's laptop atm, hope to have my own system up and running in a day or two. Perhaps this will give me some time to work on some razor projects ;D

    Have a brilliant week guys!
