That explains it! I have a puck of Coconut waiting to be used (old formula). Merz Apothecary was out of the Schafmilch when I visited Chicago several years ago. Fantastic soap!Haslinger. Sheeps Milk. The only soap in my rotation.

Final shave of May GRUME
Tonight’s shave was
Pre-Shave: Hot Shower
Razor: Merkur Futur (2/2.5/3)
Blade: Treet Platinum (1)
Brush: FS 3-Band Silvertip Badger
Soap: SV 70th Anniversary 4.1
Post-Shave: Alum Block
SV 70th Anniversary AS Lotion
T&H 1805 ASB
A wonderful shave period. SV IMO is a truly top drawer soap. Futur and Treet blade were on point. No nicks or cuts or claret.

We made May!
For the first time in a while I wasn’t rushed, so I spent some extra time on my shave. I found it takes almost an extra 10 minutes to go from a 9.4 to a 9.75. (Shave 293 on my Feather.)

Instead of an edit I’ll just add a note. I probably won’t post tomorrow. It’s our weekly town day, but an early departure to make a second attempt at the bloodwork we were supposed to get last week had the doctor’s office remembered to send in the paperwork. Then instead of hanging around for band rehearsal we’ll be heading north to Ashland Oregon for our first Shakespeare play this season. It’s a quant college town and we always enjoy the atmosphere. We’ll be seeing Twelfth Night. We always read the play ahead of time and this one looks like it’ll be fun to watch.
Still in and successfully finished another month 
See you all in June's GRUME
