Hi Scotto,
Just a modest thimble to adorn the shave shed's humble furnishings..(The largest I could find! Love that stuff)

By the way, that's the new Ed. Jagger for Crabtree and Evelyn Super Badger after the ol' 4-pass. Enjoying it immensely. Have to admit, I am getting impatient waiting for my Savile Row Silvertip.

Boy did I get a great shave today! First time using the D R Harris shaving soap and it was wonderful. It rivaled any of my creams with the quantity and richness of lather. I dialed open my Progress a little more than usual and had at it. My Savile Row 231 did a marvelous job of whipping up more than enough lather for 4 passes and another half pass around the chin and jawline.

The Savile Row 231 after 4 1/2 passes. Still full of lather, could have made another pass!

DE, what did you think of the Harris Milk?

DE, what did you think of the Harris Milk?

Austin, it was very nice. I tend to prefer more of a sealer/toner ASB vs one that provides more moisturizing characteristics. My favorite balms would probably be the Milk, C&E, Skin Food, and Feather. I'll be trying out my new Body Shop ASB tomorrow, and based on the clerk's assessment, will be light as well. As winter approaches, I'm curious if I'll find the ones that provide a little more moisturizing to my liking such as my T&H and L'Occitane.
