Hello everyone! Hope you had a pleasant evening.

And the hits just keep on coming! Another phenomenal shave today. Birthday shave and I returned to Martin de Candre and their excellent "Original" shave soap. Wonderful scent with notes of lavender, mint and rosemary with super thick and slick lather built with the Paladin "Somerset" 2-Band Select Badger brush. Two passes (plus touch-up) with the '49 Gillette Milord and I finished with a splash of Quinn's Pink Grapefruit & Orange Rind witch hazel, followed by Pinaud "Clubman" aftershave lotion (decanted into an antique 19th century medicine bottle), talc and Dana "Canoe" EdC.

Hope you have a great day.

Happy Birthday, Mark !!!

Everything here was sampled to me but the bowl and the brush.

Oliworks M3teorite razor (mild) Dave in KY
Ethos Russian Tea soap and splash SinCityAg
Dorco Prime Blade MaineYooper

Captian’s Choice Obsidian Bowl
Allen Long 25mm Keyhive Brush

Just a great, mild but efficient shave. If you are looking for a step up from the Overlander or Bison style razors - here you have it while maintaining the easy shave characteristics you already love.

If you are worried about blades not coming out of Russia, try the Dorco Prime made in Vietnam. Smooth and Sharp, just great.

Have a good week everyone!
