Day 18 with the Mongoose


Shower, Dove Soap, Neutrogena Face Wash
B-3 Mongoose with Triad Helix Hex TI
Feather ProGuard #2
Paladin PK-47 Butterscotch Marble Two Band 26X47mm
Stirling Soap Co. Margarita’s in the Arctic
Alum Block, Dickinson’s ++Menthol, Unrefined Shea Butter
Kramperts Frostbite Aftershave
Brooks Brothers 1818


Late shave Sunday night. This is the second shave with the Feather ProGuard (FPG) blade. Initially I thought the FPG was sharper than the Feather Professional (FP) blade. Perhaps not sharper but maybe more aggressive, or my blade memory is short. The true test will be the blade’s longevity. So far the FP went 9 shaves, the Kai Mild 7. The Paladin P-47 Butterscotch Marble Brush generated enough lather for 4 or 5 passes. This Paladin has the same two-band badger hair as the TSN LE Paladin, however it has a denser knot and a shorter Loft (47mm) giving it more backbone while maintaining substantial splay and a slight scritch. It holds lather very well and has excellent flow through. Stirling MITA’s first time out the gate, using a Modified Marco Lathering Method, generated a creamy slick lather that chilled my face with decent moisturizing. Mmmmmm, Finished with a healthy splash of Krampert’s Frostbite After Shave. I’m hooked, on good and COLD
scents!

Have a great week gentlemen!
