Today's scary soap is MWF! While there are a lot of admirers of da Fat, there are just as many detractors and people who detest this soap. This is what is on the brush after face lathering for the first pass. Next up is Wilkinson Blue Bowl and Modern Williams.

Wonderful photos, gentlemen! Enjoy your day!

RazoRock-tober (7 Oct)
Pre: Village Barber oil
Soap: RazoRock XXX
Brush: Rubberset-400 replica with 24mm silvertip
Razor: Gillette Super-Adjustable (Black Beauty)
Blade: NOS Personna74 (4)
Post: Thayer's witch hazel, followed by RazoRock XXX


P74 blade is still going strong. It's acting like a brand new blade still. RR-XXX smells just like AdP to me, but I think the AdP is slightly better. Both are amazing.

Wow, Celestino! That is one of the best SOTD's off all time! Amazing snapshot!

 

[robk]

SCARY
ENOUGH FOR YOU???


No, no, no. I didn't not use this set up.

I will be using this one later today.

Newly arrived this morning Le Père Lucien Vetiver & Bourbon ... Gillette New SC head & ball-end handle from a Tech ... Simpsons M6 manchurian ... Fine Clean Vetiver. The straights, sadly, did not quite survive a flood. They were all inherited via my wife's family.
