Hi everyone!

An evening shave after a long, nice and sunny week-end...
Started out Josh's month-long soap opera with my beloved Arlington and my new score, a smooth little gold-tech. Tack sa mycket Atte!!

Here's a "golden picture" of that little beauty.

D.R. HARRIS Arlington ~ Kent BK4 ~ Gillette Gold Ball-end Tech ~ German Pitralon

Wow, that is one SMOOTH little razor, huh!!
Mind you, the Arlington delivered, as usual...

Have a nice week!

Henry, great shot today!

i can't be the first to request a shot or two of what the rest of that table of razors looks like can I?

i found a sample of the Tiffany "For Men" and wore it all weekend as well as a heavier dose today for work, and believe it to be phenomenal! it's what i imagined and hoped Floris 89 would be, and one of the few "oriental" (though i hate that description) scents that im really drawn to. Thanks for the recommendation!!

Thank you!!

I think someone else asked for a shot of the table, but I forgot to post it. If the dust between the razors isn't too evident, I will post a picture tonight.

Isn't it surprising that Tiffany's makes such a nice men's cologne?

Since I'm participating in the month-long soap shaving event, here's my return to SotD. I'm using this occasion to revisit other razors I own, and to do some solid brush comparisons between my Omega and my Kent BK4.

Gillette Super-Speed "Red Tip" / Personna Red Platinum / Omega 652 Black Badger / Penhaligon's English Fern shaving soap / Dickinson's WH / SCS Lavender Splash AS / Penhaligon's English Fern EdT

I've not visited this particular puck in a while, and it took a little more effort than I expected to get good lather from it. Hopefully a couple more days of working with it should shorten the time it takes to build up the glorious lather that Penhaligon's soaps provide.

Tiffany for Men is an awesome scent and one of my favorites! Much better than the Chanel Pour Monsieur and Guerlain's Habit Rouge

hello gents.

Today's set-up:

This evening:

Bull Mastiff (NEW head) w. Derby Extra (2)
Laminated bone handle badger brush of unknown quality; quite floppy but not as soft on the face as super badger or silvertip
Mitchell's Wool Fat
Unscented Thayer's Witch Hazel
Proraso ASB

I found the brush on a medieval fair (though there is nothing medieval about it), so far it has shed a gazillion hairs from an already not so dense knot, it did not work well with soap, but I expect better results with cream - the handle is a beauty though. If the knot keeps shedding like that I'll replace it with a Golden Nib one.


Regards.

Jakob
