Tabac Tuesday's Shave


Cold Water Rinse
Tabac Shave Soap
Jayaruh #395
Unmentionable
Unmentionable Stainless
CWR
Tabac AS

The Tabac Shave Soap lathered well with the Jayaruh #395 Badger Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Unmentionable Razor with an Unmentionablet Stainless 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 a single edge that I honed myself and therefore unmentionable, Chistled Face soap and AS using the Atomic Rocket (brush of the twenty first century award) 

Happy Winter Soltice everyone. We made it. It's all down here from here. Long days coming. Get those Speedos ready.

Ever-Ready 1924 little lather catcher today with a 15th use Gem SS PTFE. The Colonel Conk lime was whipped up with the Zenith Boar with ease. Thayer aftershave balm and Lucky Tiger finished things off nicely. The 1924 Ever-Ready is a fantastic razor and this Gem blade is still going strong.

Tuesday DecemBOAR 21, 2021
Razor: New Adjustable Unmentionable
Blade: Unmentionable
Brush: Fluffy Industries 86/Maggards Premium Boar
Soap: Stirling Texas on Fire
AS 1: Humphrey's Alcoholado Maravilla 70
AS 2: Stirling Texas on Fire
Fragrance:
Consecutive Daily Shaves - # 1140

So we are using a new razor today as well as the inaugural shave with the Fluffy Industries 86 Handle with a Maggards 24mm Premium Boar Knot. Using a manly brush like this calls for a Manly Soap Scent and Texas on Fire was summoned for duty. What an amazing shave I had from the brush handle (A heavy Beast) to the 1st use (1 test lather) Boar Knot to the Unmentionable Adjustable. The scent was a bonus and will be enjoyed all day as I run the continuing chainsaw massacre on the hillside here.

The Brush: This handle is a heavy beast as I said but it feels great in the hand and looks amazing as well. I put a spit shine on mine and we'll see if I keep it shiny or let patina have it's way. Can't thank Ken enough for his generosity in sharing it and his creativity in his designs. The Knot had a single and short test lather after a hour soak in some water yesterday and lost 1 hair then. Today during the shave, clean up and towel strop it lost...............................again a SINGLE hair. That's amazing for a new boar knot. On top of that it feels soft already with zero pokey feeling and will only get better as it breaks in. This one is a keeper and I'm stoked I got the right knot set in this handle right from the get go.

The Razor: Unmentionable Review

Hope everyone has a Stupendous Day !!!

I had an entertaining thought that Fluffy had made weighted brushes as exercise equipment. Whipping lather and doing curls!
