Tabac Tuesday's Shave
[Image: zcws.jpg]

Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #423
AutoStrop A2
Personna GEM SS PTFE
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #423 Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the AutoStrop A2 Razor with a Personna GEM SS PTFE Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

I used to use Barbasol canned poo, and even the Colgate stuff, if you know how to shave it doesn't really matter what you use. Rock on bubba!
Boar brushes, brass razors, and hard pucks ARE traditional wet shaving. Everything else is modern day fluff for the girly men.

Razor: 1887 Star Lather Catcher
Blade: Gem SS (3)
Brush: Fluffy Industries Copper Edition
Soap: Vintage Williams
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: CHH Tobacco
Fragrance: Paco Rabanne 1,000,000
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1008

Beautiful shave today with the 1887 Star Lather Catcher find Jeff jmudrick gave me the tip on. Was unsure how well it would work with the Modern Gem blade but got a great close shave. Should only improve when I get some wedges honed up. 3 Fluffy Industries shave gear items used today and VERY appreciative of Ken's thoughtful gifts that are revealed in the video. Have a Stupid Fun Day folks !!

Had a late ‘40’s shave with an “unmentionable “ made in ‘47,
Barbasol, and Aqua Velva.

Used a different unmentionable and Barbasol. The razor blade holder and the shave cream are the same brand…..???
