"Hello Floyd, this is Barney Fife. Who's in the chair...well
get rid of 'em. I'm coming over and I'm ready for action!
That's right, I want the works...shave, haircut, witch hazel,
O.D. cologne, toilet water...If it smells I want it!"

*last of a sample. Love this stuff, but I'm not sure I can wear it as a fragrance with any regularity, if that makes sense. Brilliantly made scent, though.

Pre-shave soap: Musgo Real Glyce Lime
Razor: Merkur Futur
Blade: Rapira Swedish Supersteel
Brush: Vulfix 2234 Super
Soap or Cream: Valobra Soft Soap (Almond)
A/S: Dickinson's Witch Hazel, Alpa 378 Splash
A fine shave this morning with my favorite razor! The sound of the Futur effortlessly mowing down stubble is music to my ears. Of course, a good blade helps, too, but even a so-so blade becomes pretty good in the Futur.

Wednesday morning:
Jagger Georgian brush
Real Shaving Co. shave cream
Jagger Chatsworth razor
Gillette blue 7 o'clock blade
Harris Lavender aftershave
Brooks Bros 1818 cologne
The Real Shaving Co. is the house brand for Creightons who makes the creams for most everybody else and its good stuff. We had a recent price increase at the local Rite Aid, it's up to $3.99 per 150 ml tube, so I better stock up before being hit with further escalations.
