    • Brush: AP Shave Co. - 24mm Synbad Fan
    • Razor: Personna BBS-0
    • Blade: Bolzano Superinox (German) (6)
    • Lather: House of Mammoth - Tobacconist - Soap
    • Post Shave: Razorock - Puros - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: Nivea - Creme

    Shave #2 that I’ll post today. The Kryptonite shave from earlier was done last night for work reasons, but I counted it for today because of the Shave Against Suicide on reddit.

    Anyway, TUB KILL!

    I’ve been chipping away at this tub for 6 days in order to get it out of the way for incoming Oro Valley. This is the 20th tub of soap that I’ve managed to kill, granted a lot of them I got used, etc, but I’m quite proud. This brings my total tub count to 32, and tomorrow it’ll increase back to 33 when Oro Valley is delivered. I had over 50 at one point and made a goal to get down to 40, and then kept going.

    *disclaimer - my tub count only includes what I consider “real tubs”. Things like tubes of Proraso and Speik, my puck of Williams, and other novelty lather products aren’t counted for my own sanity.

        There’s no right way to approach it. Whatever works!

    I loaded heavy, and this was a nice shave with a good after-shave feel. My deception with AYLM is receding.

    Have a good night!
