Seaforth! Sea Ice Lime (Spearhead) aquatic citrus
Shave 3
It’s time to get some more cow fat in my diet. I’ve been using lean soaps for most of March, and my hide is starting to hurt. Beef tallow is the answer. Nothing cushions better than a layer of fat. I chose today's soap to accompany my reading of Two Years before the Mast (1840) by Richard Henry Dana. The book is about a voyage on a sailing vessel from Boston to California between 1834 and 1836. I figured I needed something a little salty to shave with. And even if I wasn't reading a sea story, I'd have still picked this soap since I like the look of the Spearhead labels. I realize they’re a complete rip-off of the old Seaforth style, but I like the vintage feel. It goes so well with my ancient Tech and Micromatic razors.
