Very nice shots, Gentlemen




How is that EJ soap? (Lathering, protection and scent)




Very lovely blade and awesome shot
It looks more like something an executioner would use than a razor

Thank you Soren! The Ottoman Egyptian and Royal Windsor Razor is a mighty beast!

Friodur 8/8 | Shavemac | Bomb Custom | Thayers Rose | Bomb Custom ASB | Profumo.it Mecca Balsam​

All that I can say after today's shave is WOW! The new formulation Bomb exploded in my shave bowl. I was swimming in the best smelling suds you could imagine with citrus and vetiver and herbs filling the air. The Friodur, rescaled by Max, wiped away my 2+ days worth of growth as if there was nothing there to begin with. My face is smooth and soft.

I am truly ready for the day!

Excellent shots so far, gentlemen. Thank you for sharing!​
