Bourbon Country Shave Journal - Dave in KY

Appropriate thoughts Dave. Timing of this whole mess aside, it’s nothing to be taken lightly.

Wish we had more pantry and cabinet space to avoid outings a bit better, but we’re able to store enough food for about a week right now while keeping some fresh food items on the menu as long as possible.

Tuesday April 7, 2020
2020 Shave # 103 ( 519 Consecutive Shaves )
Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5
Blade: ASCO (1)
Brush: Sorrentino Orange Crush
Soap: CFG Ghost Town Barber
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
Aftershave 2: CFG Ghost Town Barber Splash
Fragrance: CFG Ghost Town Barber EdP

After posting my SOTD I went in to shave and decided since I didn't know how many shaves were on the blade I would change it to some I had gotten in to try from I believe it was @Maryland998 I tried the Shark in..............I forget but got a couple smooth shaves. I may have binned it or it's still in one of the razors. Today I grabbed the ASCO SS Orange pack made by Lord Co. They run $20 shipped for 200 blades. They are a smooth blade for me but not really the sharpest. I'll see how they do going forward in the 6s. Got a nice comfortable shave with no issues with them and the GTB trio of soap, splash and EdP. Have a great day Cadre !

I have a feeling there are going to be a few GTB shaves today and a few people commenting how they can't stand it. However, I can't get enough of this scent. I'm going to have to get the cologne to match it. Nice post Dave!

Thanks Pat and you hit the nail on the head. Just pay no mind to the naysayers if you like it as many do

Great G shave Dave! I’m torn about joining the GTB crowd or going for something I’ve not used for a spell.

Takes the pressure off savings but I'm a cautious guy and while losened, purse strings aren't opened fully
