Fantastic pictures gentlemen! Thank you very much and thank you Ron and Dave for your kind words - I hope you all have a great Saturday :thumbup:
 
Razor - Gem Demanskee
Brush - Jim Roe 103 Pau Ferro wood / Badger
Soap - Mitchell's Wool Fat
Bowl - Tinned dimpled a Turkey

Feels like the first day of fall today now that the temp has really dropped. Captured a photo on our front walkway with wife's lavender flowers which are emitting a beautiful tone of purple today.
The Demanskee razor has become my favourite (non injector SE) of the family.
Jim's 103 feels great in hand coupled with a nice knot.

Friday has brought a plethora of fantastic photographs and descriptive SOTD. Thank you gentlemen.


From last evening:


@DabblinRazors - Nice Otto Roth. Did you like the CFG Cedar & Spice?
@120inna55 - Excellent photo, Matt.
@Quink - How was the razor performance, JC?


Today:

@Cody Martin - A classic shave.
@skypsyd - Quite colorful, Dave. Love the accoutrements.
@Dagwoodz - Really like your horizontals, Josh. Good album selection!
@Mostho - Nice pastel coloration and selective focus, Stefano.
@ronindug - Top notch shave! Good highlighting.
@Jnatcat - How does the Ever-Ready lather, Will? That is the original knot? Nicely done photo.
@UngerWoo - Interesting presentation.
@Sdm84 - Good POV.
@Cash_Stronomer - Love the closeup against the amorphous background.
@CT23 - Nice focal point, Chris. Like the gradual diffusion of the background.
@eezee - If you're going to have a lime shave this is the way to do it! Interesging brush handle.
@Bobcat - You made a great choice with that brush, Bob.
@Doug57 - Lovely b&w, Doug.
@alfredus - That brush! Interesting effects photo.
@Rusty Blade - Very nice closeup.
@mcdig - Beautiful brush handle. Really like this shot.
@shm - Another classic presentation, Søren!
@imcndn - Looks to be a satisfying shave.
@doc47 - Sleek-looking blade, arresting brush and excellent cream equated a note-worthy shave, I would think, Dan.
@blzrfn - The Eclipse is a very striking DE.
@blexa - I like the way you present your shave.
@lu20vt - Excellent photo, Luis.
@sarimento1 - Very classy! How do you like the Pils?
@azwetshaver - Mighty fresh looking shave, Gabe. That Ranger Tech is minty.
@ram57 - Anyone who finds that bottle will wish they could extract the real implements! Nicely done!
@Hanover - That's my kind of ad! Great!!
@Quink - Congrats on the mug. I only have one Old Spice myself. Nothing wrong with an inexpensive shave!

Looking forward to a Saturday at the SOTD that will at least equal the week's offering. Hope everyone has a grand weekend full of exceptional shaves.

Good evening, gents.

Thank Ron. To answer your question from last week (sorry I didn't see it), I rate Valobra triple milled soaps in the top 3 soaps I have tried. I can not distinguish any difference in performance between AOS tallow, Valobra brand, and C&S. The only difference is the scents.
 
today,

- Dr.Jon's Anne Bonny
- Wolf Whiskers/Shavemac D01 2Band
- The Claymore SE
- Feather Professional
- Dapper Dan Blue
