SOTD - June 28, 2010 through July 4, 2010

Happy fourth. Shave got cut short tonight when I found that my Friodurs edge off my Karasu didn't hold up for a fourth shave. Guess it's back to the drawing board to figure out the best way to use that stone.

But my one pass shave was...

20mm Bulb TGN Finest in intricately carved ivory/bone handle (First use...was expecting to do a pic, but the shave disappointed too much)
Olive Oil soap
Friodur No Stain 5/8" in Peacock Cell scales
No A/S (WTG only, crumbled edge on Friodur ~= 3k finish).

Sunday night shave:

Edwin Jagger 89L w/ Feather
Rooney 3/1 super
Cade soap
Aqua Velva Ice Blue

Just got done grilling and wanted a nice evening shave:
Rooney Behive Pure Badger
Wade and Butcher 6/8
Classic Shaving Bay Rum puck
C&E post-shave lotion

Sunday evening

Razor: Gillette superspeed '63
Blade: SuperMax superplatinum #1
Brush: Penworks finest 26 mm
Cream: Trumper Almond SS sample
Aftershaves: Vivanatura clay & natural oils mask; Hofigal trilavanda;
Cologne:C&S Neroli sample

Stick Valobra // Simpson Duke // Ever Ready 1924 // Thayers/mentol // Aqua Velva/mentol

That soap dish is pretty cool. Is it glass or plastic? Reminds me of some Depression glass that I've seen.

Perhaps one of the multitude of moderators or stewards or vasals or other esnes will remove the sticky from the thread?
