I wonder how Moonbeam is doing? I don't think he's been around for a couple of months.

Cheers guys! Bill, no, I brought my Samsung NV7 to our country stay (nice lens, but not close as nice as the 60 mm)

Around the World in 80 Shaves

Wednesday: St. Louis, USA



• Hot shower
• The Smiling Shumate (a perennial favorite), stropped 20/60 on Illinois 127
• Mama Bear's Lime, whipped with badger (very fresh and fragrant)
• Three full passes, DFS
• Nothing but Pinaud Clubman could finish this one properly

Happy Hump Day!

Pre-Shave: Hot shower

Brush: SRP Thäter

Razor: Dubl Duck Satinedge 6/8

Strop: 40/60 Neil Miller Linen/Kanayama Cordovan

Soap: Tabac

After shave: Tabac

Results: It's been a while since last SOTD post, but I assure you, I have been shaving!! But since I got home from my vacation I have spent most of my spare time upgrading my workshop setting up more workbenches, more tools and more light. Tonights shave was nice and relaxing after a long and hectic day at work. Tabac never dissapoints, nor did it today, I really don't see why I keep letting it go so long between each time I use it, I love the stuff!!

Rune,

It's great to see you back. That is an awesomely clear photo you took. What was your setup?

-SOTD-

Prep: Warm Splash
Pre-shave: BS Maca Root
Cream: BS Maca Root
Post: Cold Splash
Balm: BS Maca Root
Razor: EM Dickinson Invicta 5/8
Brush: Omega 'Mighty Midget'
Strop: Vintage Blades 3' Latigo

So I finally broke down and got a new strop. A big 'ole three inch one to boot. I mean this thing looks like it should be in a S'n'M dungeon. I shaved with the Invicta today. I slapped some new DIY scales on it. The scales are made of purple heart. This time I just glued the scales and the wedge together. Seems to work ok. She shaved like a champ. Gotta love a smooth face.
