Razor:Timeless Stainless Steel OC .95 gap w/Timeless Pineapple Handle
Blade: Gillette Silver Blue (4)
Brush: El Druida Red Heart Chakte Kok/African Blackwood 2 Band
Soap: Route 66 The Black Pearl
Aftershave: Folsom & Co. Shady Past
Excellent three pass shave with a bit of a clean up around my chin. The shave soap The Black Pearl is reminiscent of exotic spice cargos of yore this mysterious fragrance sets sail with fresh, herbal top notes over soft floras and a medley of spices. Accented with a smoky depth of vetiver, myrrh and wood grass. Excellent soap.

Tobacco Thursday
I got the usual excellent shave with WSP today. Optimal lather was easy to make, with my Bronze Shadow. I made two passes on my neck and three on my cheeks with my Futur set on six. This is the best pattern for me - the weight of the razor allows it to almost melt through my stubble effortlessly. I used B&M Reserve Spice and the WSP tobacco balm, though I had no irritation, I like the soft feeling those products leave.

This makes 19 shaves in with the vintage Personna 74.  I am still managing to get a decent shave but it is not nearly as close.  I know some manage 28-30 shaves so I will keep going.  Reef Point is a soap that does not get much attention but I find it to have top notch performance.  The soap is easy to whip into a rich slick lather.  I truly enjoy the scent of Dragon's Blood.  I finished off the shave with a splash of Fine Platinum.  I hope everyone has a great Thursday.
