Spyderco UF touch up
3" Tony Miller Artisan Strops Linen/Horsehide
6/8 TI Evide Sonnant
Thayers Rose Petal WH
Trumpers CSF
D.R. Harris Rose Bouquet EDT

Great Shave :cool:

The Rose EO soap is Very Nice :happy005 great lather and skincare.....I have gotten spoiled with
the FO rose soaps and only wish the EO scent was stronger....it would probably cost much
more though :o A Great soap nonetheless and I have a lot of rose EDT's to finish up with.

Many thanks JoAnna!! :D

DR Harris lavender shave soap
Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue aftershave lotion
Aqua Velva Ice balm

I make grandiose statements like, "I see no reason not to shave with the Merkur classic forever", and then I meet this red tip Gillette and fall in love. I’ve been using it non-stop for the last few weeks and have no thoughts of using any others. The added weight, larger diameter and manly knurling of the handle… nice! It’s supposed to be aggressive; I don’t feel it, I think it’s just right.

this Top Ten cream makes you want to take your time and shave slowly, because it lathers so well, it smells beautiful, and it has a lot of menthol in it. I think this shave took me 25 minutes, maybe even a little longer! ;) :D

It shaved like a dream! I gave it a few laps on the Swaty, 50 whacks on a .5 micron diamondpasted strop and 50 on the leather...

I think that the DR Harris lavender shave soap is boring; weak scent, no super charged menthol cooling effect, bland color, no pizzazz! However, there is no denying the quality of the shave I get when I use it. It is superb in all the important areas of shaving: lathers well, my razor glides and cuts with ease and my face feels great.
