Very good!
Oh man, those both sound fantastic!

Great shave, this blade works very well in this razor for me.
I would also have a hard time with months of only rose.
I actually haven’t met a rose scent I’d be willing to use exclusively until it was gone. Have you?
Oh yeah, I hadn’t noticed

I stropped this razor before my shave for the first time since it was honed (25 linen, 50 leather). Surprisingly, I got worse results after three passes than yesterday. I think my lather may have been worse today, and my technique felt a little all over the place.
Steady works nicely with Noble Man, which is a dupe of Creed's Mill�sime Imp�rial. It's a nice woody, fruity combo that's perfect for a sunny Saturday.
Have a good one!

13th shave without stropping this razor after it was honed. I can tell that the efficiency is dropping off a bit, but it's still cutting well enough. Not sure if I want to continue pushing the edge or give it a good strop before the next go round.
Lonestar and Leather is a lovely combination. I should pick up the Lonestar frag at some point…
Have a great Friday y'all!
The fall weather has been beautiful here, but I’m not at all prepared for the time change in November.

Fantastic shave. I just love the scent of Autumn Ash.
I'm still not convinced that the slant makes much of a difference in shave quality. It sure looks cool though.

$discord A quick cleanup this evening since I have to be out the door early to take two of our cats to dental appointments. Excellent lather and some great scents to wind down with at the end of my day.

October 15th, 2025: BVWSC - CGC Susurro
We’re using Susurro for this month’s BVWSC! I got this as my LG prize this year, and am very happy with it.
The performance of the Darkwing base is great, and I love the scent – a dupe of Maison Margiela Replica Whispers In The Library.
It’s light and woody, with a hint of sweetness. Apparently the original is supposed to evoke the cozy atmosphere of an old library. I’m not sure if I get “old library,” but I really enjoy the scent. Perfect for this time of year.
Well, I’m happy to mail you another smush if you’d like. Just let me know.
Oh, that’s not a good sign. I sent them on September 28!

Super close shave, no irritation.
Have a great day y'all!
