Some great looking gear here guys! I am going to add a few to the list. 

First up is a kind of tribute to @9nien9 as he turned both the brush handle and razor handle. He also sent me the coffee cup. The Trumpets rose cream is awesome. 

Next is my Turkish Tuesday. The soap is The Shave Factory and the brush is a cheap boar. Both from Turkey. The Fuzzy Catcher was awesome as usual.

Vintage Wednesday
Pre: Shower, Cold water Face splash
Brush: Vintage Vulfix service #3 1950's
Soap: Williams Mug Shaving Soap
Razor: Valet VC1 Gold (1922-28)
Blade: Modified GEM Stainless PTFE (4)
Post shave: Cold water splash ,TC's Infused Witch Hazel
Balm: TC's White Musk & Vetiver Balm
Aftershave: Williams Aqua Velva #1

I was looking forward to using the VC1 today after Arthur @Electrif 's SOTD yesterday and it did not disappoint.
Got to admit the face lather with the WMSS was a bit thin on the first pass so i just reloaded the brush and all was well.
3 full passes for a BBS finish, i keep saying it - for its looks this razor is a surprisingly gentle shaver.
Stay safe and enjoy your day all.

Williams Wednesday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Williams Mug Soap
SlimGem Silvertip Badger
Stoll Jr. Lather Catcher
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB

The Williams Mug Soap lathered well with The SlimGem Silvertip Badger brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Stoll Jr. Lather Catcher with a Personna GEM SS PTFE blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Aqua Velva 5 in 1 ASB. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Love the soap bowl
Thank you Dave,
It's a vintage German Pewter pot pourri dish - I think, it works very well. Found it on the Bay looking for "lidded trinket" dishes.
