Friday, 5.20.11

Aura Glow .. To pave a smooth path to the hereafter
Trumper's Shave Cream .. Rose
New Forest 2211 Finest Silvertip
Hebsacker 44 Round Point
Neil Miller strop .. 70 linen/80 Bridle Leather
Witch Hazel
Pinaud's Lilac Vegetal AS

The lilacs are almost finished, perhaps signaling the coming "End of the World," which Edgar Cayce, a devout proponent of the metaphysical, would most certainly have taken heart in...
I want to put my best foot forward for the afterlife, and not be denied at the gates, so a good shave today was a necessity. The Hebsacker was chosen, because it's used so little, and I want to promote an image of absolute fairness in all my dealings...

You want the afterlife to smell like the Veg? What if Saint Peter hasn't been chosen? You want him to judge you while you smell like cat pee?
 
Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush: 23mm Shavemac Silvertip Badger
razor: 13/16" Takagi Riki "Coral", 3/4 Hollow, Spike Point
Strop: 40/50 laps (Neil Miller linen / SRD Premium IV leather)
Überlather: Martin de Candre Shave Soap
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Blue AS
Cologne: Acca Kappa "Blue Lavender" EdC
Results: I opted for the Coral this AM, even though I was still good from yesterday's ultra close shave. The MdC is always a delight to use. And the AK Blue Lavender...well, this scent is slowly growing on me, and wife likes it a lot. Fabulously BBS and smooth

6/8 Ern Ator // Speick // Simpson AS3 // Alt-Innsbruck

Finished cleaning up the Ern last night and wow! It took an amazing edge. I dare-say it outshaved all my solingen blades I've ever used (Puma's and DD included). I've shaved with probably a half dozen Ern's and this is by far their top of the line. I'm still in awe at what an amazing razor this is :thumbup1:
 
Really excellent razor Robert. Great pic. :thumbup:

Thank you Kevin :001_smile. She's one smooooooth shaver :thumbup1:

Bill,
Nice way to get ready for the afterlife buddy :thumbup:. If Edgar, Harold Camping and their likes are right, 98% of us will go straight to the "other" place :lol:. If it's going to happen, then one might as well go with style :thumbup1:. Well done.
 
Nice SOTDs, gentlemen!

Thank you Matthew :001_smile

Superb photo, Robert:thumbup1: Did you have a good time in Vegas?

Thanks David :001_smile...We had a blast :thumbup1:. Lots of food and some hiking and we loved out hotel. Of course, meeting up with Max was one of the highlights. Watched him work on one of his customs, gave him 3 of my blades for rescale :tongue_sm, and of course, today I found out that my custom is ready to be shipped :biggrin1:. Life can't get any better :thumbup:
