    Local Razor

    • Brush: Dogclaration LG 2022 Mystery Brush (B16)
    • Razor: F. Rolli Rolli’s Hollow Ground 5/8" (carbon steel, barber’s notch)
    • Lather: Barrister and Mann – Leviathan
    • Aftershave: Barrister and Mann – Lavanille
    • Fragrance: Chatillon Lux – Gratiot League Square

    This little Rolli came up for auction on a local eBay competitor a while back. It was made right here in Lausanne so I couldn’t resist. I couldn’t find out anything about this razor maker, so it’s a bit of a mystery. I didn’t expect much, but it turned out to be a really nice little straight.

    It’s the first straight razor I have with a polished blade. Shiny!

    Saturday, May 4, 2024: Saturday Sheep


    Electric Sheep is such a happy soap – probably less because of the soap itself, but somehow, I associate it with good times.

    Have a good day!

    2 passes. Face lather. Excellent shave.


    I have this soap in the Kodiak base which has bear tallow in it. It’s a nice base, but I would like to learn how the animal the tallow comes from makes a difference.
