SOTD "FREE WEEK" August 19th - August 25th, 2019

[boo909]

It's The Man Himself's birthday today so a good excuse to break out the Tallow n.1, also a thin cap Old Type, Witchazel and Clubman Musk (decanted into a glass bottle, I was sceptical but it really does make a difference) to finish.

Happy Birthday Howie!

Stirling Agar today. 20 seconds to load the Whipped Dog Tall Silvertip brush. Easy, thick, slick, lather. Gillette “Spoiler” Super Stainless blade still in the Gillette Fat Boy. Excellent smooth, close, shave. I finished with Stirling Agar aftershave.

Very imperial set up. Makes me miss my injector.

Oh boy!

Thanks, a regal shave this morning

Another killer brush! Feel encouraged, very encouraged.

Thanks William! Serious considerations are starting to form. I am also doing some designs that are a bit more contemporary. I’ll keep you posted.
