Lazy day on this 8th day of Decadent December, led to a late morning shave, featuring one of my more efficient vintage razors, my Cooper Monobilt. Despite a late start, the razor delivered a dome and face BBS that has me continuing to feel that incredibly closely shaved dome. I feel smooth, clean and cool thanks to my Cryogen AS and M-Bomb additive to my shaving soap!

Sunday DECember 8

Another razor that doesn't get enough use is my Asylum XL. This is an excellent razor. Definitely a DECadent shave.

Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
Soap - Stirling Mountain Man
Brush - ThatDarnRob 26mm
Blade - Feather HI SS (1)
Razor - Asylum XL
Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Stirling Mountain Man A/S

Shave rating 5 of 5

I've got a lot of razors and some of my razors just don't get enough use - and my Asylum XL is one of those razors. It's really an excellent razor. Paired with a Feather blade, I received a smooth 2 pass (WTG, XTG) BBS shave with no blood letting or irritation. Typical Stirling lather, slick and a little on the wet side, provided excellent cushion for the shave. The ThatDarnRob brush has good backbone and soft tips. The alum was a little vocal on one side of my neck only. Finished up with the Mountain Man A/S.

Happy DECember and great shaves everyone.
