SOTD 6-12 December 2020

Everytime I see a Blackbird, it makes me wish I enjoyed blade feel more than I do. One of those razors I drool over but can't bring myself to buy.

Barrister and Mann | Soft Heart Series | Brew Ha-Ha
Ever-Ready 100T | Elite Razor Manchurian
The New Improved Schick Injector Razor | Personna 74

Brew Ha-Ha is a soothing gourmand.  This is perfect for nighttime shaving.  It reminds me of coffee prepared with Kahlúa and kirschwasser. Yum!

S.O.T.N. Saddleday, Dissemble 12th

(say it fast enough, it sounds okay)

prep - shower with Caprina Fresh Goat’s Milk & Shea Butter bar soap
razor - British Gillette Flare-Tip Rocket
blade - Astra SP (5)
brush - Fendrihan Classic Pure Grey Badger
soap - Williams Mug
post - warm water rinse, DSA “Pure & Natural” alum, cold water rinse
aftershave - Mennen Skin Bracer
music - CBC - Randy Bachman's Vinyl Tap

I always forget that the Flare-Tip Rocket gives a much nicer shave than the Black-Handled Super-Speed, which sorta' resembles it. The BHSS is too harsh at times.
Williams Mug - nothing wrong with it that more of it won't fix. It's at the alphabetical end of my soap rotation, so tomorrow I'm back to Fendrihan's Aloe Water cream.
Yet another gore-free BBS.

Czech & Speake No. 88~~Simpson Rover~~Feather AC~~YSL Kouros

I would like to dedicate this shave to John churchilllafemme whose excellent "Fragrance Terms" thread should not be missed.
In that thread, I learned that two Nag Champa scents are my Czech & Speake No. 88 and theYSL Kouros.
They paired very well together.
Have a great day!

Thank you, I appreciate the nod very much.

If you haven’t tried the Ti version, you might like to do so - while I find it as efficient as any Blackbird in SS or brass, the Ti BB feels rather more delicate on my skin. Who knows, it might work for you this time...
