ENGLAND/USA, SOTD "themed week" 9th July - 15th July 2012

[Optometrist]

Please delight us with all that these two countries on opposite sides of the Atlantic have to offer.

Unfortunately, due to a technical error, I am unable to start this new week week with a picture of my own. However, it is with the sincerest thanks to my very good friend, Luis, that I can kick the week off in style with this marvellous photo. Thank you so very, very much, Luis. You are a life saver!

I recently refreshed this blade for the first time since Glen restored it for me. It held the edge well before, and was smooth as silk today. It took one pass to a near BBS. I think this is the only sheffield steel that I personally own, but I like the way it fits my face. What a way to start the day with an Arlington trifecta!

 

[Sir_Eider]

Pre Jabonman Romero + "old" Omega lanolin shaving cream + Omega 10098 + UFO U2 Long with Feather Portable head and Polsilver Super #3 + Razorock Wax Eucaliptus with "old" Williams Sport splash


A smooth shave, although mixing this Razorock Wax with splashes is not a good idea... too dense!


Cheers!

Monday Morning

Blend of HBS Cherry Pipe Tobacco SS + TOBS Mr. Taylors SC
Simpson Colonel X2L
Parker 98R (Goliath)
Red IP (6)
Alum block
SCS "Smoke & Beads" Edt
DFS - 3 passes

Great early morning shave. The lather was enough for 4 passes, tho I only had time for 3. The scent was OK - but probably won't blend these two again. Very comfortable shave.
