The Double Edge Adventures of Somnos...

[NurseDave]

However, no shaves since Friday! Well we can’t be all buff all the time can we?!

Well, if you weren't so lackadaisical about it we could!

Last shave of September and back to a single edge. The plan for September was to highlight the SE and or Stirling and SV soaps...well there is too much other goodness in the den so that plan went out the window. The AS-D2 has been dominating my SOTD and though it is a fantastic thing of beauty the Supply SE with the two dot plate got called up today to close it out for the month.

Soap today a classic scent in CBL Club CBL! CBL makes great soaps with premium stuff in them. They have for me been slick and excellent performing lather bombs and they are all exceptional. However, this scent is just a classic, powdery barbershop and the complete match to Clubman.

A great three pass shave achieved with a DFS / BBS finish. Need to use this polished beauty more often. Slapped on some Clubman and AdiP Colonia Essenza to finish it all off.

Maybe you need an assitant to keep you occupied with all that free time!

Can't go wrong with Clubman, hermano!

I love Clubman Hermano...some do not but its so classic.

Happy Friday! Sun peaking out behind some cloudy skies but the weekend is quickly approaching so it’s all good. The mighty Merkur 45 has been calling to me from the shelf and today I showed it some love. Quite the little beast this one and a looker too. I have enjoyed my shaves with it and today it was loaded with a Personna Lab Blue.

Soap today Stirling Agar with the matching AS. It really is a sweet smelling Oud and I really like the warm scent. Great soap of course being Stirling.

Three wonderful passes and another DFS/BBS finish logged in the books. The 45 is quite a light razor but as long as you are careful and don’t apply too much pressure it is a joy to use. Happy Friday all! Stay safe and enjoy your shaves!
