Delta Echo Feather AS-D2/Timeless Pineapple

St. James Perfumery London Collection aftershave (vintage)

The Declaration Washington is hitting it's stride. I had no problem whipping up enough Barbiere Sapone for three passes. There was plenty of face feel, not too soft and pillowy, maybe even a hit of scrub with zero scritch or scratch.  Felt great. Only downside to this shave was a nasty bite from the SE-2. I have no idea why. I changed blades mid shave but the new Pro wasn't any better. If it acts up again it may get kicked off the shelf by the trusty Cobra.  Have a great weekend, cheers.

Thanks very much for the kind words

Pretty wonderful mix for beard (Shake Sharp) and head shave (Hawk) . First outing with TOBS gets a thumbs up. Still rockin the bizarro double Personna 74 on the Shake Sharp cuz if it ain't broke..

Great photo Chris.

Razor: Gillette Goodwill 1930's Ball End Open Comb w/ Hempel Handle
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (6)
Brush: Simpsons CH1 Chubby Best Badger
Soap: Route 66 The Black Pearl
Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Capri

I have a few best badger brushes, however, this is the only one I really like. It whipped up a great lather for a 3 pass shave with a clean up around the chin. Route 66 The Black Pearl worked perfectly. The Folsom & Co. Capri is one of my favorite aftershaves. Hope everyone has a great weekend.
Snow storm blowing in from the West on Sunday. We are supposed to get 3 days of heavy snow. I guess I got my last round of golf in today.
