Good morning, gentlemen. Today's shave was about as exciting as a wet sneeze.
Razor: Kropp 6/8 round point — a sweet razor
Razor: Gillette Tech shave head with Edwin Jagger Octagonal handle — waste of the EJ handle
Blade: Feather — second and final tour
Brush: Semogue 830 — a superb boar
Soap: Valobra — a bust of a shave soap, and I should have spiked it with Lavanda cream
Pre-shave: Castle Forbes
Scuttle: Moss
Lather bowl: none — face lathered
Alum
Witch hazel
Balm: Bulgari
Aftershave: English Leather
Music: silence so that I could complain about the shave
Finisher: Coffee and further complaints about shave
How do you REALLY feel about your crappy shave today Obie???
Last nights shave was bitter sweet since this Noonan came to me with a frown. After removing the frown, it did not seem to want to take a bevel. I ran this thing on the Choosera 1K for what seemed like an eternity but it would not remove arm hair. Eventually I just proceeded to hone the thing ( I got frustrated after cutting myself twice) and then attempted a shave.
Hot shower, Stephan's,Warm oil
Dirty Bird Scuttle
New Forest Badger
Nancy Boy Shave Cream
T Noonan and Sons "Dominic", 6/8, Full Hollow
SRD P1 Strop
Razorock Aluminum
Vaseline for men
I guess the only real test is the "SHAVE TEST" because although it would not cut arm hair, it gave a really nice, smooth shave. Now I have to clean up the rest of the blade.

Fantastic shave today and great scents all around on a RAINY Tues... Noah may be bringing the boat around soon today or I may need "floaties". Loved the lather and the Genco was flawless on a three pass shave. Don't really see many of these around any more.
Have a great tues all!
