Another ABC shave and today is brought to you by the letter F! And F is for Foxville. Foxville is an autumn type scent that is made by Oz Shaving Company. Oz Shaving Co. is an artisan that I believe is a bit underrated. They have a nice line of soaps that are scented beautifully. They have a line of brushes that are out of this world. If you haven't guessed yet, the products from this soap maker are inspired by the Oz book series by L. Frank Baum. You know...the Wonderful Wizard of Oz? Dorothy? Toto? The Tin Man? Yeah...but the inspiration lends to the whole series, and if you didn't know...there are something like 14 books in the series. Okay...enough of that. Had a great shave today even if I didn't show it in the video.

The ABC Shaves continue, but I was hard pressed to figure out my "G" shave. I had ordered some blades for my GEM, but alas, Amazons Shipments are moving slower that usual. But I did fins my tub of Cold River Soap Works GLIDE rendition of the soap. This scent is a very aquatic smelling soap that just smells fresh! I did some mammoth painting ( @Blade-meister would be proud of me) as well, as I want to smell like the soap, but overpowering. More on that in a bit. Finished up my shaves with some healthy glugs of Barbasol Pacific Rush! So in other words...yeah...I feel great!

Chad there is another soap by CFG called Ghost Town Barber. Smells incredible. I imagine it is what gentlemen like Walker Texas Ranger, Sam Elliott, The Duke, Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds smell like. You should give it a try 😜

Ah I thought you were one of the few that didn't like it. If you get anymore are you going to get it in the new soap base?
