Merry Christmas!


 
Damaskeene with injector blade shimmed GEM Blue Star (I know, got em cheap). Following traditional cargo pants strop blade had phenomenal initial sharpness and smoothness, near BBS in two passes, but seemed to run out of steam mid head shave. Perhaps more of a sprinter than distance runner but really enjoyed the beard shave. Happy Holidays y'all.

@Smooth Steve - Really a nice tableau, Steve! It's a beauty.

@Smooth Steve - Like this layout a lot, Steve. How was the Limenthol?

Thank you Ron for all the work you put in and the kind comments. Merry Christmas!

The Limenthol is great. It is the only CRSW soap I own. Off the puck the scent was different but enjoyable. As you load, the lime dominates and smells nice. The lather was exceptional and had just the right amount of cooling. The slickness combined with the post shave is just perfect. The Post shave lotion is balm-like. I would prefer an alcohol based lime aftershave over a a thicker balm, but it left my face feeling hydrated and very smooth. The wife liked it also, so that is always a winner.
