Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Very cold this morning. Current temp is 12° F with a wind chill of -1° (very rare here). Not much snow yesterday but a lot of sleet and ice. Working remotely today. Great shave to start the day. Returned to Mitchell's Wool Fat shave soap. Lightly scented and excellent post shave face feel. Excellent lather built with the Simpson "Chubby" 2 Manchurian badger brush. Two passes with the RazoRock Mamba 70 and I finished with Aqua Velva "Musk" after shave & cologne.
Hope you have a great day.

A terrific creamy & slick lather from this soap..smells wonderful with the matching splash!
An excellent razor to remove my 3 days of growth. The edge was buttery smooth and crisply keen...very enjoyable!

Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.
Very cold again this morning. Current temp is 8° F. Working remotely again today. Great shave to start the day, though. Returned to the vintage Yardley shave soap. Great lather built with the Zenith B28 boar brush for two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Aristocrat and I finished with vintage English Leather "Timberline" after shave splash & Dana "Canoe" EdC.
Hope you have a great day.
