    Thumbs up Sun June 24th - Sat June 30th

    Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
    Razor: Hans Otto Deutsch
    Brush: C2
    Cream: Castle Forbes Lime
    Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
    AS: Booster Lime
    EDC: Hollister Socal

    I had a craving for citrus so what's not better than my beloved CF Lime, Booster Lime and some Sardines with lemon as a snack.
    A great shave that put a big smile on my face and a great snack that put another smile on my face. Combined with a gorgeous sunny day, it was a total zen day.
    Tonight I had the pleasure to have Thomas aka eTom and his lovely wife for a BBQ at my home. It was a blast. It was a sad moment seeing them leave but they are leaving Vegas tomorrow to continue their holiday destinations. I wish them a great and safe continued stay in USA.

    Thanks to all for your participation. Enjoy the new week gents!

    I love this razor, great shave but really its because its the first razor I honed myself. Beginners luck most definitely but none the less it was most gratifying doing it myself. A first using Cella soap as well
    a cheap soap but certainly not nasty

    Have great week Gents

    Good morning Gentlemen!

    Shave prep: Face wash
    Brush: Omega boar
    Soap: Tabac Original
    Scuttle: Robert Becker large
    Razor: C. V. Heljestrand Mk 4, around 11/16
    Strop: nun2sharp's hanging leather strop
    After Shave Splash: Herbal Chypre home made splash
    Notes: Stunning shave today, not much to say about Tabac exept that it rocks
    The razor was as good as it gets, smooth and ultra sharp, and the herbal chypre left a brilliant finish to this 2-pass BBS. I loved every part of today's shave. Now a pot of Yunnan Tips and some SRP browsing, this is turning into a brilliant sunday.
