Since B&B and been off and on for the last couple of days, I completely missed the theme this week. Here is what I used this morning. You can bet that I will be Italian tomorrow!:biggrin1:

Simpson PJ2 Super
Tabac Shave Soap
Gillette New / Derby
L'Oreal Aftershave Balm
 
In Memory of Mark (aka, Blugill)
I miss you my friend (Texas Style)


A late post (B&B was down)

Pre-Shave: Hot shower
Brush (Rudy Vey): 26mm w/ TGN Silvertip (Grade A) Badger
Razor: 11/16" J.R. Torrey, Full Hollow Ground, Spike Point
Strop: 45/60 laps (Neil Miller linen / SRD Premium IV leather)
Überlather: Acca Kappa "1869" Shave creme + Acca Kappa "1869" Shave Soap + Glycerin
Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose Petal, no alcohol)
Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer
After Shave Splash: Floïd Italian Amber AS
Cologne: Acca Kappa "Muschio Bianco" EdC
Results: I couldn't sleep much last night. I wish I had a GEM or other SE to properly dedicate this shave to Mark. But knowing how much he liked American steel, I took out this Torrey in his honor. This razor already holds a special place in my collection. After refreshing her edge on the Asagi w/Nagura progression, she gave me the kind of shave Mark would have been proud

. Let's just call it BBS and as smooth as a catfish's belly (sorry Mark, but without the smell

). I will miss your "colorful" and descriptive posts my friend.

Can an Admin please delete two of my above posts (For some reason a triple post is not what I intended and I can't seem to be able to delete it myself)

Thanks
