Alfredo aaha.  Great sauce.  But we (Tim and I ) still don't know how you like your steak cooked. That's important info.

Medium to Medium Rare

Dead Man Walking as I Ordered from Stirling the razor from the pass around some time ago. Standard head with Dallas Handle and Chocolate Colored Leather Case

I thought the Standard handle looked to be the best balanced. Will await your report.

Nice score on the razor.

Sunday March 7, 2021
Razor: Gillette Aristocrat #22
Blade: Wizamet (1)
Brush: Knothead Brushworks "The Kentuckian"
Soap: Hub City Red Cabin in the Woods
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Nivea 2 into 1 Splash
Fragrance: Scuderia Ferrari Black

Another Hub City shave this time with the Red Cabin in the Woods. Great scent and here's how it's described on the site:

"This scent is a nod to my wife's favorite men's fragrance, Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille. The scent opens up with tobacco flower, nutmeg, and anise. Ginger, clove, and vanilla make up the heart. And this all rests on benzoin, tonka, and musk. Hopefully this scent will evoke great memories for you as well!"

Amazing lather that is Creamy and dense which again can really take some water to get it thinner. "The Kentuckian" by Tim Knothead had no trouble whipping it up in style. Just a joy and feels amazing. 1st run with the Aristocrat and it is deceptively efficient. Feels like a narrow sweet spot but is VERY comfortable. I like the weight compared to the Fatboy and it just feels more solidly built to me. Maybe it's the less moving parts in it in comparison. Feeling good and ready for coffee and services this morning on zoom. Take care everyone !

Great write up Dave. Sweet looking kit too - especially that clean and shiny looking Aristocrat.   

Enjoy!

Amen, isn't that aristocrat a beaut? When he posted it in the acquisition thread I swore it looked unused (or barely used).

Great catch Dave and great shave! I'm feeling the need to try Hub City soapwork now. Darn you enablers. Lol.

FWIW mrdoug, I’ve seen nothing but love for Hub City, including from me.  I’d say “Go for it”.

I thought the Standard handle looked to be the best balanced.  Will await your report.

Thanks Mike, The Handle is the Dallas. The Standard (Aggressive) is the Head I chose versus the other option of the Hyper Aggressive (HA) Both are Bears if I remember correctly from the pass around.......

Nice score on the razor.

Thanks Tim
