@Smooth Steve - Quite a cool wild blue shave, Steve.

@Smooth Steve - That's my kind of picture, Steve. Color me envious!

Thanks Ron. Trying to stick with a vintage look! Using the birth year razor and enjoying.

A mix of "retro" and "Modern" today...

• Merkur Futur w/ Gillette 7 O'clock Yellow blade
• Razorock Plissoft "Monster" brush
• Soap Commander "Endurance" shave soap
• Vintage Shulton Old Spice aftershave splash in Vintage Shulton "Lighthouse" decanter
• Soap Commander "Endurance" aftershave balm

I'll bring out the Gillette Red Tip in a day or two to retro it up a little more!

 

[ronweston]

Ron, yes it does lather easily. I'd say as easily as La Toja or Proraso creams.

Thanks.

 

[ronweston]

Thanks, Ron! How do like the WD HM knot?

I like the Whipped Dog knot a lot, Chris. It bloomed quite nicely and has a fine spring to it with just the right amount of backbone for me. It's pretty soft to the face, lathers like crazy and performs flawlessly. I love using it.

What a stupendous bevy of photos and posts for Wednesday, gentlemen. Excellent!

Sorry but no comments tonight. Too much work on my research/editing project today and a three hour evening jaunt to various pharmacies without getting what I was looking for!

Hope tomorrow will be better. Be seeing you.

Mickey Lee Soapworks 'Grand Havana' / TSW Synth 28mm / Gillette NEW 1934 / Gillette Silver vint. blade (6) / Pinaud 'Virgin Island Bay Rum'
https://flic.kr/p/TY6P4w
Cognac and cigars are a nice way to start the day - from the 'Grand Havana ' soap that is. Lovely creamy lather with great post shave feel.

The vintage Gillette Silver blade in the battered NEW performed well for a BBS finish in three passes. Splash and burn from the VI Bay Rum and let the circus begin..

Have a great day and enjoy your shaves gentlemen ​
