Beautiful gear! Though the Paladin looks more like a Falstaff than a Chief

Full head and beard shave with the Fatip-Yaqi. Just marvelous. I actually used a Rockwell handle and not the one pictured, but the threads on the Yaqi are a bit funky and I couldn't manage to get the Rockwell back on properly for the photo. Permasharp blade. Italian Barber now has the DOC on sale with Razorock branding.

So I'm entering my second week of using the Semogue 1305 only. Am I missing my badgers?. I'm not, honestly.

I really disliked the scent of Reserve Classic when I first got it. It used to remind me of retired (grumpy) old men. It has grown on me to the point that now I love it. I suppose that's my nose reminding me that I will be a grumpy old man one day and I will complain about 'kids these days', millennials (or whatever they will be called), internet (while using it) etc.

Another great brush, with moderate backbone and extremely soft tips.

My wife was wondering why I was drinking an ale at 9am, but it was a citrus leftover from last night that seemed to fit at the time.

Somebody needs to tell this guy how to resize photos
