Sunday, March 09, 2025
- Brush: Omega - 10048 boar
- Razor: Gillette - Old Type
- Blade: Personna - Lab Blue (3)
- Lather: Stirling - Deep Blue Sea
- Post Shave: Stirling - Deep Blue Sea Aftershave splash (+ menthol)
- Fragrance: Chiseled Face - Summer Storm EdP
Another vote for Stirling. Deep Blue Sea is a great scent to start a sunny morning, and the Omega brush always whips up an excellent lather with this base.

Sun 09 Mar 2025: Day 5 of March Madness
- Brush: Chisel and Hound – Flame On with v26 Fanchurian
- Razor: C. V. Heljestrand MK Nº 31 (square point, full hollow, 5/8", carbon steel)
- Lather: Summer Break Soaps – Valedictorian
- Post Shave: Macduffs Soap Company – Trail Tobacco
- Fragrance: House of Mammoth – Shire 2
I'm throwing my support behind Summer Break Soaps today. Valedictorian and Teacher's Pet are among my favourite scents in wetshaving, the base is super easy to work with, and Rocket is an active member of this community.
Lovely shave with an outdoorsy tobacco theme. I smell ready for adventure.
Wish you all a great Sunday!

- Lather: Talent Soap Factory - Trash Panda
Day 5 of the TSF domination era of March Madness. In round 4 TSF had the #1 spot unlawfully STOLEN from us by Meanie Mammoth, but they can't stop us. They'll try, oh they'll try to stop us but they can't. Like a 4chan raid of Area 51 there's too many people that want TSF to win, and they CANT STOP US ALL!!!! MudAccording was RIGHT! The so called "Mammoth mafia" has ties to organized crime, and once TSF wins we're gonna come after every last one of them. Hear us Meanie Mammoths, we're gonna come! #TOOBIGTORIG

- Brush: Unbranded Marble w/ Maggard G5
- Razor: Chiseled Face Legacy Ti

Are you going to keep both Legacies, or do you prefer one over the other?
-
Today was my first use with the Ti. I'll keep both of them for now. They shaved very similarly. Aesthetically, the Ti is way better looking.

- Brush: Brad Sears Arley 26mm Super Badger
- Razor: Puma 89 11/16 Full Hollow
- Lather: Chicago Grooming - AG 1889 - Soap
- Aftershave: Chicago Grooming - AG 1889 - Aftershave
- Fragrance: Guerlain - Jicky - Eau de Toilette

2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.
Wonderful Sunday shave this morning. 1889 has the perfect scent to usher in a great early spring day here in Maryland. The Escher edge on this razor continues to perform well, but it represents my first use of the stone. I'm sure that stone has more to give.
