Very nice tart woody scent. Such a pleasure to shave with. The 921-M felt a little rough today, I probably need to bin this blade.

On theme. I was going to use Wallflower soap as well, but decided to try Tonsorial Parlour tonight instead. Very nice, I love how balanced CB soaps tend to be.

My fourth shave with Moarteen went relatively well all things considered. No nicks, slices, or blood. Two passes then a finishing ATG pass with the Legacy to get as close a finish as I wanted. Slowly but surely the technique is coming along!

Great lather and excellent results. Whatever illness I caught over the weekend has moved into my nose/sinuses, so I can’t smell a damn thing. Very smooth shave though!

Excellent shave. I know I’m late to the party on this one, but LTV is yet another banger from Catie’s Bubbles. Just lovely.

I also was unaware! A couple times the font has had me second guessing whether that’s actually a “p” as well 😄

I think it’s just straight up grapefruit. Definitely from before my time, Jobooze gave me a bottle. Pretty sure phteven unloaded several on him that he had lying around.

YRP is a really nice scent, though I don’t think I can see myself reaching for it very often. Overall a great shave after a tiring day.

Haverford is one of those scents that somehow always seems to be better than you remember it. So warm and comforting, this was a great end to my day.
This shave brought to you by walden’s SDS – it really is a neat system once you get used to it. I’m especially keen on having my own queryable SOTD history. Neat stuff!

It really is. I’ll probably try to get one at some point, maybe if/when my 34c actually kicks the bucket.

lol, thanks. This one was hand crafted, bespoke even, but tonight the machines will print for me.

Very good. This razor performs excellently for me, and I really like Mike’s base. It’s a strong contender for my AA base this August.

First shave with the GOAT (on passaround) and I’m impressed. It’s slightly more efficient than the 34C, has a bit more heft to it, but has the same familiar geometry. I quickly got into autopilot with it and had an easy BBS.
Also my first time using walden’s SDS to format my post. It’s a neat tool! I especially like having this data hosted somewhere, making it easy to access on different devices. TBD whether this replaces my neovim plugin. :)

I still have no idea what I’m doing with this straight. Slightly sliced my cheek and nicked my chin a couple of times.
Pretty good results, though, and El Cantinero smells great.
