SOTD 25 June-1 July 2017

Freddy, you are the 2nd person in the last week who's reminded me about Soap Commander Love.  Maybe I should heed the suggestions?  Now, the really big trick would be to find my tub of SC Love!  

Been there, done that, and most definitely own the T-shirt.

I know this SOTD looks suspiciously familiar(like yesterday's?), but I did change blades and went with a Feather.  This shave will be hard to beat.  No burn, bumps, or other irritation while still being one of my closest shaves to date!  At risk of becoming predictable, you may see this same set-up in the very near future.

Bespoke was the first artisan soap acquired along this wet shaving odyssey - and consider it a classic . . . their razor would have also been nice as was available then, just too green to plunge - maybe on the voyage through the next life

LASSC BBS-1
Feather Platinum
Barrister Reserve Classic
Paladin Chief in Lemon Drop

Very nice, including the setting and mood

* Maggard 24mm Synthetic
* '63 Gillette Slim
* Gillette Platinum
* Barrister's Reserve Cool

Not surprising to anyone, I think, but it was hot as balls today. I wish I had some Arctique or Adagio or anything else mentholated from B&M. However, the Reserve Cool was a welcomed relief from the heat of the day.

Edit: Also, my wife suggested using the artwork in the shot. I think it's a nice addition.

Lovely background, indeed.
