World Snowman Day
Rooney Polo 2 Ivory Finest (28/60)
Crabtree & Evelyn Almond Oil shaving cream (vintage)
Carbon Mokume-gane Brass/R2 Copper
Wilkinson London Bridge (8)
RazoRock R-160 Sweet Almond aftershave balm
I love almond. When I was a kid, my sisters and I were allowed to choose our own dinner dessert on our birthday, and for a few years I chose the delicious almond cake from a local Swedish buffet restaurant. These great almond software shaving products always remind me of that, especially the balm.
And the Carbon razor head seems to get even more beautiful with time.

Soap Yaqi Hypnotic Blue
Brush Yaqi 26mm Rainbow Synthetic
Razor Karve Brass SB-F
Blade SuperMax Super Stainless 1st
Aftershaves Stirling Witchhazel Wintergreen + Yaqi Hypnotic Blue Splash
The soap is good. The scent is nice, the lather is creamy and slick enough.
Excellent shave with the razor paired with this blade. 3passes for a bbs finish.
Matching aftershave was great.

Not my idea, credit Josh aka Subie Shaves, Winning Razor head on a working Stahly handle. Awkward of course but it does completely solve the weird suction issue with the head and delivers great results (Kai blade). Handle is in great condition and has enough juice to complete my usual multidirectional pass on my head. Will try this again with MDC as the little holes in the baseplate do clog with the oil/TJ cream I'm using lately.

I should add that the Stahly threading changed at some point and not all handles will fit the Winning Razor head.I have a few, they are pretty easy to find.

Good morning Cadre! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Fantastic shave this morning. Went with Fine's "L'Orange Noir" in the old triple milled puck. Lovely Terre d'Hermes scent and the lather quality was superb! Finished with the matching splash and a spray of TdH. Wonderful!
Hope you have a great day.
