Saturday

Omega 10066
Gold Dachs Rivivage
Merkur 1904/Wilkinson Classic
Swiss Pitralon

The 10066 is breaking in nicely, feels great on the face, tips are definitely splitting, absolutely no offending odors, produces a fine dense lather that is very shavable and has just one small issue - this brush absolutely chews through the soap. My first foray into the "Valley of the Boar" has met expectations.

If you want to mow through some of your soap collection - "get a boar".

Post by ThePossum »

  • Prep: Rite Aid Skin Cleansing Cream & Hot Towel
  • Brush: The "Ever Roddy 300" an Ever Ready 300 refurbished with silvertip badger knot by The "Knotty Badger"
  • Cream: SCS Fairway Rose
  • Razor: '10 GEM Jr. Lather Catcher Style
  • Blade: Ted Pella PTFE coated SE (shave 2)
  • Oil Pass: Leisureguy's Last-Pass Shave Oil
  • A/S: Thayer's Savory Rose Witch Hazel Toner & AV After Shave Conditioner
  • EDT: TSD Old Spice Type EDT

  • Result: WOW! An effortless BBS shave today. The Fairway Rose has just a wonderful scent and provides a great cushion and slickness for the razor to pass across my face. And to add to the great shave the TSD Old Spice Scent is one of my wife's favorites. As always the GEM Jr Lather Catcher did its job masterfully. Thanks St Sue and Queen Joanna for your great concoctions.

That's funny, I love it..........

However, what's with the Mach 3, you have posted it's use quite a few times, your not being drawn over to the dark side are you.
