Ookla The Mok, sachin, SlagleRock, Andy, Eelco and Captain Flint - great pictures as well :thumbup:


My Sunday shave, which almost is purely German (EU anyway):

Rosendahl Glass Bowl
Dovo Pure Badger
Dovo Special 5/8" Straight

Tabac Shaving Soap
Proraso Cutting Edge Razor Burn Repair (needed that today :sneaky2:)
Tabac After Shave Lotion


Have a nice Sunday Gentlemen :biggrin1:

Very cool!
 
I can see I'll need to step up my game to compete with the previous pics I've looked at, but here's my first ever posted SOTD:

Van Der Spice shaving soap
Gillette Tech loaded with a dollar general blade
Tweezerman badger brush (which has now decided to start shedding horribly)
and Ivy Club spice AS

No pre-treatment. Obviously not BBS, but I was experimenting with the new soap and got a poor lather in my new dollar tree soup bowl lather mug (not pictured)
 
Spent the night away from home, so only packed stuff I wouldn't mind losing.

Parker 82R Razor
Lord Super Chrome Blades
Mama Bear's Energy Shave Soap
L'Occitane Travel Brush (I almost left it on purpose:laugh:)
C.O. Bigelow Elixir Blue A/S
C.O. Bigelow Elixir Blue Cologne
 
Sunday

CF Pre-Shave
Rooney Heritage Beehive
Moss Scuttle
Gold-Dachs Rivivage Soap
Mergress set on 2 with Shark Super Chrome (3)
Nivea Sensitive ASB

A rare 7 consecutive days of shaving, all with Gold-Dachs. This soap is at or near the top of veggie-based soaps for me, as far as performance goes. The scent doesn't hold a candle to Cade or Trumpers, but the shaves are as good.
 
Gillette Fatboy w/Shark Blade
Handcrafted Silvertip Brush
Proraso Pre/Post
Godrej Shaving Cream--Deluxe Lather (Red)
Eroica Valiant Aftershave Splash
GF Trumper's Spanish Leather EdT

Welcome to SOTD! Nice shot today. How do you like the Ivy Club Old Spice? I've read some good coments on it.

Off to see the Calgary Hitmen in action this aft...

Mystery Straight (its big, shiny and super sharp)
Plisson HMW size 8
Provence Santé Green Tea shaving soap
Laboratoires OSMA pierre d'alun
Pinaud Clubman (conservatively applied, of course)

It was an absolutely wonderful shave. I got an itty bitty boo boo though... too much coffee this morning before heading to the shower & shave.
