Tonight’s shave was nice.
The soap has quickly become a favorite. The scent is for me at least top notch.
The performance of the soap is very good as well.
This razor is wearing my first attempt at making scales. They are black oak I salvaged from a drain pipe we cleared out at work.I knew soon as my chain saw cut into the wood. The smell and color of the chips. Waterlogged and covered in mud. A hidden gem. I just put some linseed oil on them.

Robeson New Science Concave
AP Shave Cashmere
WCS Soloist
Figaro AS

I like this razor way better than the Old Science Concave versions.
Here comes Monday.

Good job on the scales!

Awesome job on the scales Ken! And I agree 100% that the scent of The Soloist is top notch and is a quality performer! Great post!

Nice scales Ken

They turned out ok. Need a bit of work. Waiting to hear from some of the other guys. To let me know if something is off center

Have you tried the Totally New Concave razor? I hear it's even better. Those scales look terrific to me.

Haven’t seen one (Totaly New Concave) in good shape for a decent price. Got a Keen Kutter Royal coming by Wednesday. Looking forward to getting that in shape.

Love the Vintage look and great stuff!

Tonight's shave was a very good one. Revisited the hones again as yesterdays shave was good. But coming off the fresh Shogun Edge TM on the Gong razor. The New Science Concave begged me for the same treatment. The New York Steel of the Robeson responds well. Result smooth, sharp irritation free shave.
The Sudsey Soapery product always delivers. Applied by the Cashmere brush. Mimicking a Mimicking a million soft eyelash hairs plucked from baby unicorns.
Completed with the Myrsol's Agua Balsamica rosemary, lavender and thyme scented solution. Life is good.
@Patelliott Your package will be at the post office tomorrow. Going to watch a few videos now. And see how all you other guys made out today.
Take it easy.

Awesome looks like a great shave all around!

Rosemary, Lavender and Thyme sounds like a great scent combo. I’m going to have to get some of that next time I order some aftershave.

 

[Patelliott]

Nice post Ken and sounds good!

It’s a lightly scented AS. Short longevity. But nice.

 

[MilkCrate]

That Myrsol Agua Balsamica sounds good.

 

[Maryland998]

I got samples a long time ago. Not sure where though. Dang memory.

 

[Graybeard57]

That's some creamy looking lather.

Sudsy Soapery is very good stuff imho
