Have a great day!

Lovely brush, Clint, especially, that handle! Is it new?  

Thank you Celestino. The handle is modern reproduction of a vintage handle. I got the brush from Heritage Collection Shaving. I had him but a 2 band finest SHD Fan in the handle. I think it turned out great.

Can I have your Oscar11 Aquamarine? You’ve got the entire collection Sir, you won’t miss it...
I admire those every time you post one!

Thank you. You could probably contact one of the current brush artisans to see if they can turn you a replica of my Oscar11 Aquamarine one if you really wanted one.

Great to hear, Clint and enjoy the brush.

It’s more humour and a compliment on those brilliant brushes! Truthfully, I couldn’t do a knockoff

Tuesday OCtober 1

First OC shave of the month.
Hitting leadoff, a 113 year old, 1906 Gillette single ring model 100.

Bowl/Scuttle - GP12
Soap - La Savonniere du Moulin (A+ in my book)
Brush - Rubberset 400-3
Blade - Feather HI SS (3)
Razor - 1906 Gillette model 100
Post Shave - OSMA Pierre alum, Stirling Ramblin' Man A/S Splash

Shave rating 5 of 5

What a nice shave this razor gave. No wonder these razors were popular. This soap might be my favorite soap as well. I know it's not MWF, I'll do that tomorrow on a "W" day. 2 pass shave with NO need for partial cleanup passes. 1st pass was WTG and DFS+ and I could have stopped there but I got greedy. Did the 2nd pass XTG on my face and ATG on my neck area. Greedy part came with the ATG on my neck area and I pressed a bit too hard to try to get everything in the 2nd pass and caused myself some irritation that I felt when applying the alum and A/S. Other than that misstep on my part, a GREAT shave from this old-timer.

Tomorrow, considering another old-timer, a 1918 Gillette Bulldog.

Happy OCtober and great shaves everyone.
