Thread: Sun - May 19th - Sat May 25th

Location: 36° 0'5"N - 115° 15' 21"W
Razor: Max Sprecher
Brush: SRP LE 2011
Lather: SRD Bulgarian Rose
Astringent: Thayers Witch Hazel
Nourishing: Aramis
Scent: Aramis
Result: Every time I use SRD's Bulgarian Rose I cry. I cry because I see it shrink after each use and it's not available anymore. So I dread the day my tub turns empty. It is the Holy Grail of glycerin/eo based soap I have ever used in my life. Unsurpassed. As was the shave.

Wishing my brothers a great new week.

Strop: MickR's Roo Hide
Brush: Comoy Badger
Soap: Tabac
Razor: Dovo Special 11/16
Astringent: Thayer's Original Witch Hazel
Balm: Nivea Replenishing
A/S: Pinaud's Virgin Island Bay Rum
I picked up this little 5 x 1 inch Thuringian recently for $11 and gave it a test run on the Dovo.
It polished the edge nicely. Dont think it will beat the Naniwa 12k, but I still think it was a good score.
Result: A very nice 2 pass shave

Have a great week boys, and thanks for the posts and pics

What chance would you give give your whiskers if they came up against a Dragon God, there was only one outcome, Dragon 1 - 0 whiskers.

May the Force be with you!
