    • Brush: Elite Razor Honduran Rosewood Burl 24mm HMW Fan $WOODEN
    • Razor: Geneva Cutlery Co. 6/8" Hollow Ground Round Point
    • Lather: Captain’s Choice - Bay Rum - Soap
    • Post Shave: Captain’s Choice - Cat O’ Nine Tails - Aftershave
    • Post Shave: West Coast Shaving - Alum

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


    I purchased Captain’s Choice Bay Rum because I like Bay Rum and the owner (Scott) told me that it was his biggest seller. Of the few bay rum scents I have tried, this is still my favorite. The Cat O’ Nine Tails aftershave has a strong, dark bay rum scent. The alcohol content on full send. Love it!

    I purchased this alum when I decided to get into wet shaving. I thought I would need it, but other than a few first attempts, have found I never use it. I think that if you want an alum that you never use, but want to keep on a shelf somewhere, that alum should be Osma.
