Th Ultimate Desert Island Thread

[Tarak83]

There’s so many of these “if you could only have one” or “desert island” threads....what if we put them into one. The ultimate desert island thread.
So if you were stranded on and island and could have only one, what would be your:

Bathsoap or Wash product: tie between Stirling Barbershop and Duke Cannon Productivity

[Wgg2017]

Razor: titanium Timeless .68 scalloped
Blade: Feather
Brush: Muhle Silvertip Fiber Synthetic
Soap: MdC Agrumes

Alcohol: Lagavulin 16

 

[T.Orso]

I’ll make do with just the Lagavulin 16.

 

[rbscebu]

Desert island, no fresh water, I wouldn't shave. I have yet to find a saltwater shaving soap.

 

[JCarr]

Razor: As of right now...Timeless SS .68 w/scalloped head & base
Blade: Personna Israeli Reds
Brush: Barrister and Mann Tuxedo synthetic
Cream/Soap: The Goodfellas' Smile Abysso

Bathsoap or Wash product: Zingari Man The Mariner soap

Cigar or Pipe Tobacco: None - what can I swap for this category? Nevermind...I added aftershave.

Alcohol: Jack Daniels

Coffee: Whole bean Turkish - I'll plug the grinder in somewhere

Whichever razor has a satellite telephone built into it. And Arko

 

[Tallships]

Water Pre-shave
Weber PH w Classic handle, razor
Astra SP blade
Arko stick, shaved and bowl pressed

[BigJ]

YIKES!! Only one option for each category.

Cream/Soap: Haslinger’s schafmilch (tallow)
Splash: Speick

Bathsoap or Wash product: CeraVe

[SharpieB]

I’ll make do with just the Lagavulin 16.

This or maybe a few skids of higher end Laphroig (need to stay hydrated after all) and a few crates of Montecristo or Upmann #2’s and I am good.

I would be going full on Grizzly Adams, so no need for shaving stuff.

 

[SharpieB]

Desert island, no fresh water, I wouldn't shave. I have yet to find a saltwater shaving soap.

Come on, you just need to cobble together a still out of coconuts and palm leaves and distill your own Fresh water.

Didn’t you ever watch Gilligan’s Island?!?!

 

[enrywivanh]

I’d grow a beard
Dalmore 18 year old
A Wilson
I haven’t smoked for 12 years, but I’d take some baccy, rizlas, and a lighter just in case … .

 

[BudgetShaverGuy]

A dirty blonde with a tan. If she doesn’t like my scruff she can find some clamshells and improvise.

 

[iShave415]

Merkur 34C
Proraso white
GSB for blades
real coconut from trees to use as an aftershave.

 

[Batmanacci]

Wolfman WR2 1.15
I Coloniali Mango Soap
Black Eagle HT1 25mm
PAA Star Jelly

 

[Trollky]

This is a tough one but here goes...

Razor: Muhle R41 Rosegold
Blade: ASCO Orange
Brush: omega 10048
Cream/Soap: Proraso Green

Bathsoap or Wash product: TOBS Sandalwood

Cigar or Pipe Tobacco: I no longer smoke.

Alcohol: Beavertown - Neck Oil

Coffee: any will do.

There’s so many of these “if you could only have one” or “desert island” threads....what if we put them into one.

Not a great idea @Tarak83, as my "Desert Island" razor would differ significantly from my "One razor for everyday use".

That said, everything else would stay the same, so here it goes... kind of:

Brush: Omega 10048 boar (aka "Proraso Pro")
Soap: Saponificio Varesino Opuntia
Aftershave: Saponificio Varesino Opuntia
Moisturizer: Nivea for Men Protect & Care cream in a glass jar

For daily use, I'd go with Hawk v3-SB SE razor and Feather Professional AC blades.

On a desert island, I'd wanna have one of those custom made straights in 9/8 size, mirror polished and 1/4 hollow. Brian Brown and Koraat comes to mind.

For a truly Desert Island shave set-up

Razor : RazoRock OC 84
Brush : RazoRock Beehive/ No brush
Blade : 7 O'clock Black
Soap/ Cream : Tabac / Clubman Pinaud Shaving cream tub
Aftershave : Nivea Sensitive Aftershave Balm

 

[BobbyB]

It would be my current daily arrangement.
Razor: WCS 84S
Brush: Gray Dog
Cream: Proraso Green

Booze: Jägermeister

 

[santamariasteve]

Any adjustable razor

All the other stuff I could probably improvise and get along relatively well. Remember, I would have a lotta time on my hands with not much else to do.

 

[sarimento1]

just about any good soap would work for me.
But, a large supply of Myrsol will be essential!!
