Soap Shannon's Soap Pineapple Banana 1st Use
Brush Yaqi 26mm Lucky Dice Tuxedo
Razor RazoRock GC.84-P
Blade Shark Platinum 1st
Post & Aftershaves Ice Water + Stirling Witchhazel MitA + Hyaluronic + Aqua Velva Musk
Wow...the soap scent is really sweet pineapple & banana & at a good strength too! The lather was rich, creamy, and slick...very good for the price.
The razor paired with this blade was very smooth, comfortable and hardly felt the edge. 3passes for a mostly bbs finish but suffered an unexpected weeper...you'll never be too careful when there's a shark around! It was an enjoyable session nonetheless.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a wonderful weekend.
In a not-so-great mood this morning. Didn't sleep well at all last night. Back and hip were giving me no end of reasons to wake up. Had a great shave but needing extra coffee to get things rolling today. Luckily I have the proper cup..
Despite the rocky start (and sleep-deprived bloodshot eyes), I had a great shave this morning. It helped that I minimized the chances of things going wrong. Went with WSP's "Mahogany". Great scent and I always get a great lather from their soaps. Stirling's "Li'l Brudder 22mm synth is the little brush that could! Can't believe that I got three passes worth of lather out of this little guy. Think I've found my travel brush when me and the missus vacate in October. Finished with some Stetson aftershave splash mixed with ETHOS "Clean" Skin Food splash and a spray of Stetson EdC.
Hope you have a great day.

Shave of the Week Starting 12 July 2021
Rotbart #15 razor
Silver Star blade
FS/WD boar brush
Seaforth! Spiced SS
Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
Seaforth! Spiced A/S
Mighty fine shave to start the week with. Love the Seaforth! shave soaps, they just work marvelously for me and smell oh so nice. The FS/WD boar brush is a good one. Very soft from the get go jus gets a little tangled now and then. But, all in all, a great start to the week. My face is very happy. Now go enjoy your day folks.

I'm a bit jelous of your NO. 8 Special, because:
1. It's in better condition than mine.
2. Mine is yet to be honed.
NICE!
