Shave of the Week Starting 2/9/2026

Razor..............................Pearl #63
Blade.............................Astra SP/Personna Gem PDG
Brush............................TRC Cashmere
Soap.............................TGS Shibusa 2
Post..............................Osage Rub/Witch Hazel w/aloe
A/S..............................TGS Shibusa 2

Started the shave with the Astra SP and nope, wasn't working so switched to the Personna. Much better and a nice shave was had. First time out with the Pearl, it's fine and, I think, quite attractive. So my face is content. Now go enjoy your day folks.

Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap
Jayaruh #224 Synthetic
Supply The Single Edge SE
Supply Black Label Blade
Cold Water Rinse
Humphrey's Witch Hazel
Aqua Velva Ice Blue

The Mitchell's Wool Fat Shave Soap face-lathered well with Jayaruh #224 Synthetic Brush. Two passes and touch ups with the Supply The Single Edge SE razor and the Supply Black Label Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Humphrey's Witch Hazel and Aqua Velva Ice Blue. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

SOTD - 2/12/2026

The Cajun Blade / Rick Widner - Wid’s Cherry Almond
Rockwell 6S (Red)
Opus Shaving Brushes “Opus Ivory” - (Craig Budgeon did an amazing job on this series)

Top: Black cherry, strawberry, banana
Heart: Cinnamon, orange blossom, jasmine, almond
Base: Vanilla, musk, sandalwood

The scent on this soap and aftershave is outrageously good! Cella can’t stand up to this. If you are a Cella fan like me, it was always disappointing that the Cella aftershave didn’t smell like the soap. It had a totally different scent. Not here… same banger scent for both the soap and the aftershave.

I just noticed that Wid’s Cherry Almond is no longer on the Cajun Blade Etsy site. Must have sold out, but hope it comes back. Stellar!!

It’s not the size that matters! You Yankees always want to have everything as big as possible I have noticed The only CVH that I don’t like is the MK24. Don’t buy it if you come across it! All others is a good deal.
