A comment to my SOTD the other day had me thinking (no cheeky comments please ). I thought it would be fun to shave with the cheapest equipment in my collection and with the most expensive as well.

So today's shave is the cheapest possible, and it can't get less expensive because it is absolutely free
All hard- and software is either gifts, won in competition or pif'ed to me.

And I couldn't tell the price in the quality of the shave - it was really good.

Tomorrow I'll take the expensive route.


Saturday

Japanese Rice Bowl
Victoria Boar
Gillette New with Lord Super Stainless

Proraso Menthol Shaving Cream
Ogallalla Bay Rum Aftershave


Have a nice Saturday, Gentlemen of the B&B

Nice idea (and nice pic!)

Your Williams SC was not cheaper than the Proraso?
That's awkward: Here in France the two Williams cream tubes sell for less than 2 Euros each...

I don't know which cream is the cheapest in the stores - for me they are the same (at the moment) as they where free.
In fact I had 5 creams and one soap to choose from for today's shave theme, I just felt like a bit of menthol

A good shave. Nothing to write home about, which doesn't prevent me from logging it here.

I'm still pretty new to this, so I've been shaving at night. My shave of the night:

Trumpers Sandalwood Skin Food as a preshave
C.O. Bigelow Cream
Vulfix 660 Super Badger
Merkur HD/Derby
Trumpers Sandalwood Skin Food as an aftershave

Now that I'm getting the hang of things, I can't wait to start experimenting with the other creams/soaps/aftershaves I've already acquired.

Thanks B and B for a great forum.

Welcome!

This is by far my vote for 'pic of the week'. Superb colours there, Henry and no doubt a smooth shave.

Thank you! It was a very enjoyable shave .
