BRUSH: Whipped Dog Silvertip

$2-12-15.jpg

The bowl was a gift from my wife from a thrift store after I dropped a bowl I was using previously. Nothing fancy, but it works just fine. Maggard's London Barbershop has a really nice scent (my wife said it made her all 'hot and bothered'). After a comment like that I need to order LOTS of that stuff! :001_rolle

I've spent the last few weeks using the Slim to test different blades (all 3 Rapira's, 3 different 7 O'clocks) after mostly using Astra SP's. The reason is that I've found that I almost always nick myself with the Astras. The Slim itself is not one of my favorite razors, but it gave me a consistent "test bed". After several different blades I'm convinced that I've done nothing but confuse myself. Guess I need more testing...:001_huh:
