Hot shower
Dovo Special 5/8
20x linen; 60 leather on Illinois 127. Ritual HHT.

Today, first shave with Mama Bear's soap, Ye Olde Barbershop. Very fragrant. Mix of almonds, vanilla and spice? (At least that's what I make of it.) Soaked the puck in piping hot water during the shower; drained it off and started swirling with the long-handle Conk badger. When the bristles were well loaded, I transferred to the bowl and kept alternately hydrating and whisking. In less than 60 seconds, the bowl was overflowing with the most luxurious, aromatic lather. GREAT STUFF! I may have to order the sample pack to experience some of the other fragrances.

The scent harmonizes very well with Pinaud Clubman a/s. Silkiest BBS shave!! (Unfortunately, there probably won't be enough beard for another shave until Sunday.)

Filarmonica...for a smooth start into the weekend

Yet again, the sun has to decided to grace us with her presence.
I swear, it's like we are in Spain or something

I decided to get an early start today, before the rest of the house woke up.
This 6/8 Joe Chandler is one of my favorite shavers. A wonderful shaving tool.
The rest was all Arlington. Sweet stuff.

Good morning Gentlemen!

Super shave and the more I'm learning with this razor the better it gets - the grind (half hollow) is so nice and gives feedback and flex like a champ

Cheers Jeff! Love it, at first I was a little ho hum about the hole (for my taste holes shouldn't be in a blade - but I do respect the ones that think otherwise ) but now I even think it's a pretty nice detail, on this blade. Max really worked out a super nice grind too, even though I also love the stiff wedgy grind on my other Sprecher and this one complements the other razor so well... Happy happy
