Friday SOTD
Frankly I have been looking forward to this Shave today and I want to be Frank about it . When I use Frank's ( @Dragonsbeard ) Ethos "Success" I know that I am in for one of my best Shaves of the week 🥰. I have a small sample that @Dave in KY so kindly sent me and as you can see the empty container in the picture 😕 . I have enjoyed every last scoop of it 😁.
So since I am being Frank I just had to use my vintage Gillette FrankenPop with a fresh Med Prep blade and a vintage Gillette D-3 Fatboy
Backyard Maple synthetic 26mm
The silver spoon and the CC loading/lather bowl.
