Light rain and mild here this morning, 38ºF/3ºC. High near 50ºF/10ºC this afternoon with a stiff breeze, 25-30 mph with gusts to 45 mph. Maybe a lil' snow tonight...if we're lucky. A very nice shave this morning. The Packwood is a pleasure to use, partially because it's so old but also it's a nice smooth blade, plus it's a bit longer than most razors, so that's a lil' bit of it too. The Mitchell's was aces, as ever, and the new/old Culmak seems like it'll make for a real workhorse of a brush - just what I was hoping to see.

...and after many attempts... and as you will notice by the look on his face...
The third member of our animal pack would not pose with shaving gear...
so... As soon as I put up the gear shown above he jumped up on the shave den counter.
So I present, for your viewing pleasure
"Ruger the Pistol" our chocolate seal point Siamese... He has earned that name... The little $&@@

SOTD, Saturday afternoon, November 22nd, 2014

Shave after afternoon gym + Glycerin soap face lather and rinse
Razorock Fine American Blend shave soap
Restored Rubberset M200 brush with badger knot
Hart Steel 6/8" straight razor in 2 passes
Cool washcloth rinse
Fine aftershave splash

First shave with the new (sale-priced) Hart, what a great razor!
And also first shave with Razorock Fine AB shave soap, courtesy of Pat.
This RR soap is OK, but not the scent nor performance of it's others, IMO.
Mr. Fine's barbershoppy aftershave is really nice, as usual.
