You can't see the goods, but I wanted to post a pic of this killer WWII army issue kit I picked up. It cleaned up really nicely and is ready for vacation tomorrow.
Goods hiding inside:
Tech Travel Razor
Omega 11047
Feather Blades
Dickinson's witch hazel
Pinaud Lime Sec
Ogalalla Bay Rum and Sandalwood
444 balm
Godrej Lime
Vulfix Sandalwood
As you can see, I have a couple things missing from the kit. If anyone can provide some insight so I can replace them, I would sure appreciate it.
- O Melhor Pre-Shave Soap
- Proraso Crema Pre & Dopo Barba
- O Melhor Creme de Barbear
- Semogue 830 Cerda Pura
- Pils 101NE with SuperMax Super Stainless (5)
- O Melhor After Shave Bálsamo
Thursday shave took a little longer than usual, but that's because I had almost 3 days worth of growth. Nothing I couldn't work through, though!
Musgo Real Lime Glyce face soap
Proraso Pre/Post
Truefitt & Hill "Lavender" shave cream (GREAT performer, questionable lavender scent)
Crabtree & Evelyn Best Badger Brush
Merkur Progress set on 3
Feather Crow blade
alum
Osage Rub
Full four-pass shave with zero irritation and a single weeper where I had a small blemish. I'm still note sure about these carbon-steel Crow blades, but I'm on my third one and I think I'm getting the hang of them. Still not sure that they were worth the price I paid for a 10-pack. They were more expensive than my Feather Hi-Stainless blades when I bought them, but hear that the price may be changing.
Morris & Forndran 27mm
TOBS Shaving Shop cream
Feather SS with Crystal (IP)
Bourbon Parfums EdC as AS
Clinique Post-Shave Healer
Acqua di Parma Colonia
I took my Merkur Bakelite, Shave Secret, and some Shark blades down with me to Virginia Beach. You guys are making me envious with your equipment though. This is some beautiful wetshaving porn going on in this thread.
