    Ode To Haverford

    • Brush: Dogwood Handcrafts Papa Eld with Declaration Grooming B3 knot
    • Razor: Thiers Issard Le Dandy
    • Lather: Stirling Soap Co. — Haverford
    • Aftershave: Stirling Soap Co. — Haverford balm

    I had planned to use this soap in yesterday’s 10-1 landslide match, but hopped on u/Enndeegee’s Varen train. Haverford is one of the most comforting scents in my den, and even though I have the original Tom Ford Tobacco Vanille frag, I still prefer this dupe.

    The TI could use a refresher round on the finishing stone. I’ll have to get on that.

    • Preshave: Cold Water "* Brush: Yaqi 24mm Synthetic ““Panda”” "
    • Razor: King C. Gillette DE Razor
    • Blade: Astra Superior Platinum (15)
    • Lather: Haslinger Algae
    • Post Shave: Williams Aqua Velva

    I have no axe, and so, I shaved like the loser that I am with a DE. And I forgot to post yesterday’s shave, but it was the same as today’s.

    Have a good day!

        It’s true that it’s difficult under the nose, and using an axe with light pressure takes some practice.

          it’s difficult under the nose

          I’m not sure I’d come away from the shave with a nose left to shave under.

          takes some practice.

          …and an iron resolve.

    • Brush: AP Shave Co. - 24mm Synbad Fan

    • Post Shave: House of Mammoth - Mood Indigo - Balm
      (#MMarch24)

    This little sample is the only Cbubs soap that I own which is too bad. Figured I’d use it before the March Madness showdown. Nice floral scent, and a similar lather to CFG if you ask me. I like it!

      2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.

    Terrific shave. I am always impressed with SV. It feels like they are out there doing their own thing and just killing it with style and quality.
