Great shave this morning. New antique scuttle arrived and I popped in a puck of Trumper's "Oxford Blue" mug soap. Very lightly scented but great lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 Manchurian badger brush for two passes with '61 Gillette Fatboy and I finished with Paul Sebastian after shave and cologne.
Hope you have a great day.

A very nice combination of soap, brush, and splash...great lather and wonderfully complementing scents!
This old hefty razor still provides an impeccably smooth, comfortable, and satisfying shave...
Great, albeit humble shave this morning. This was the shave I had planned for New Year's Day, but I stayed up too late the night before and slept in. Following the same belief that having hog jowl and black eye peas on New Year's Day will bring about good luck and prosperity in the coming year, a modest shave will bring about a year full of enjoyable, close and comfortable ones. I wont go so far as to say the Arko soap has a "great" scent, but I like it. The lather, however IS great. Two passes with Supply SE and I finished with Aqua Velva "Musk" aftershave cologne.
