SOTD - February 15, 2010 through February 21, 2010

Tremendous international shaves today, already!

Rocket / Crystal / Old Plisson / Ralph's Safari SS / old Old Spice[/CENTER]

OK, I'm now officially on the vintage Old Spice bandwagon. It's great! And all those buried memories of my childhood now 'splode. Old Spice was the de rigeur Christmas gift (from me) to Dad, Uncles, older brothers... for years. By the time I started shaving OS was the LAST thing I'd want to use.

But now... I'm home.

hahahhahaha

All you old guys were right about this all along. Who'd a thunk it?

Flare-tip Rocket / Iridium Super (day 2) / Semogue 1305 / Tabac SS / Thayer's / Aqua Velva Ice Blue AS / Nivea ASB / Tabac AS for cologne

Excellent "Tabac-alicious" shave today. The Semogue brush still needs some breaking in, but it gets better and better. It's still not up to the level of the Omega 30005 brush I have, but its getting there.

This is the second shave with the iridium blade and I think I can sya that these may well the best blade I've used in a while. Feathers are a bit too much for me, but these Iridiumd I can handle and they are super smooth.
