SOTD April 2021

I have been hunting an Elite set for a long time. Do you have the head that came with it?

No, I got this Damaskeene in a lot. There were 2 Damaskeenes. One with the stock handle and one with this Elite handle. I liked the look and feel and kept it that way despite the mismatch.

Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #403 Synthetic
King Cobra
Feather Professional
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with Jayaruh #403 Synthetic brush. Two passes and touch ups with the King Cobra razor with a Feather Professional blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Tabac AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Razor: Blackland Vector
Blade: Schick Proline (1)
Brush: Techichi "The Hive"
Soap: T&S Sicily 1508.5
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: T&S Sicily
Fragrance: Avon Premiere Luxe Oud
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 902

Amazing shave with a fresh Proline in the Vector. Hit the Sicily 1508.5 again to have tomorrow free for Williams Wednesday. The Sicily is giving the broken pieces at times on the face when lathering but I just repressed it in the tub so we'll see if it continues again next shave. Just a few shaves left for it. The Avon juice is nice but doesn't seem to have duration but still a nice scent. Happy shaves and day Everyone !

I understand that. I would have too!

Great shave today with several of my favorites.  Cloud9 is my favorite HCC fragrance.  To me, it's like Green Irish Tweed, only way better.  Next is my 1912.  If I could only have three razors it would be one of them.  Same with the Simpson's Commodore.  It's an awesome brush. 

Great shave on a great spring day with a happy face!

Looks great on the Gem Junior Bar. That is actually the razor I originally made it for.

Beautiful razor. I did not know he made handles I guess.

I make a few here and there. That was one of the few I made for myself and was one of my absolute favorites. I gifted it to mayer57619 for being so generous in letting me borrow several razors for a test drive.
