Bourbon Country Shave Journal - Dave in KY

I'm trying to figure out how to use that luddite-built can opener. Seems good for cleaning our ear hair though.

I'll pick up a better one from the mainland and bring it on Sunday. Make a list of our needs there.

#1. Boat with sail + oars.

That is all.

Ready to quit huh? Good, this supporting people with crazy ideas is killing me.

Outstanding! Luxury shave to start the day!

Sounds like a lovely shave. I think I might do the same when I get home.

I see Fluffy is filling in for me in my absence. Keep spreading the word on hydration, @Maryland998!

Yep! SV 70th is definitely up to bat today! Great shave Dave!

Great shave and video Dave! I'm pretty stoked about that brush too. I have been debating getting a luxury brush soon or not. Then the announcement last night and seeing your brush in your video pushed me to put my name on the list.

Razor: Rockwell 6s Plate 5
Blade: Wizamet (6)
Brush: @CBLSoap.com Synthetic
Soap: Vintage Williams
Aftershave 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla
Aftershave 2: Skin Bracer
Talc: Williams
Fragrance: CK ONE

I'm back to the Island Sam !!!!!

Well I'm having trouble deciding to load from the mug which clinks TOO MUCH against the mug which is vintage and I don't want to damage it. Took too long to get one. The other option has been the tiny plastic tub which is hard to get a good load and may damage brushes ( I should stick with synthetics) Next Island visit I may try using the puck as a stick and see how that goes. GREAT shave and feeling good. Have a GREAT Sunday Cadre !!

That is a wonderful comic pic, Dave!

I gave up my Williams mugs years ago, as they were too "clinky" as well. My shaving stuff all has to be usable without waking up my wife.

Awesome shave today Dave! Luxury one day and Vintage the next! What won't you do!

 

[Dave in KY]

Thanks everyone.

On another note my reaction score has finally surpassed my post count. What I say REALLY does matter

Yea...the clinking is heck of annoying for mug soaps! Even when I use a relatively low profile ramekin, it still happened sometimes. You could lather with the puck in your hand!

I can't not have 1 of them for display at least. Wife sleeping is important though, this I KNOW !!!

Yep, I'm a "Wild Man" stuck with vintage every other day

I keep stacking mug soaps into the Fine Accoutrements soap bowl I got. A lot less clinky than other mugs I have tried.
