    The Satinedge has been giving nice shaves for a while now. Edge was put on by Brad Maggard. Hopefully, I don't totally muck it up come honing time.

    Have a handful of uses now with the silk bliss knot. I really like it so far.

    It nice here in St. Joe today. Breeze was blowing across the bluff overlooking Lake Michigan, and the farmers market was busy. Sold out of sour dough loaves.

    Lather and shave went well, although Im only doing 1 pass with the straight since I'm shaving every day. Delicious Shire never gets old.

    Another lovely stroll through the Shire today. I suspect this soap will be my first tub kill, sometime after AA ends. This is the first wet shaving item I ever won, getting lucky through one of the charity raffles. It made me love House of Mammoth forever. Cheers to an awesome company, making awesome products, and doing awesome charity work.

    Decided to do an against the grain pass on the neck today. Went pretty well. It's funny I start shaving the side that requires my left hand, and I'll look down and realize the razor has wandered to my right hand at some point.

    Had another good one pass shave. Feel like my stropping must have gone well as my shave was extra smooth today. I usually do 30 strokes linen side and 60 on the leather side. I do 30 strokes again on the linen side after I'm all done.

    Anybody keep an extra linen strop around for stopping paste? Never tried it, but curious...

    I gave myself a super tiny weeper on my bottom lip today. Misjudged the ol' landing. Maybe I shouldn't be shaving my lips?

    Another great shave today. No complaints. The Dubl Duck is still shaving wonderfully. I think I'm finally getting closer to grabbing the correct amount of soap for a single pass. I'm usually making lather for a bakers dozen worth of shaves at a time for some reason. How will I ever get through all this soap now?

    The austerity continues...

    Super happy with this brush. Love the pure bliss knot and the handle is one I have always been after. I had never set a knot before this one. It was easy enough and came out just fine. Had to add some pressure so the glue end of the knot would squeeze in and seat properly. But it feels just right on the face. So nice.

    Another evening shave. It's nice when the house is quiet and I don't get kicked out with a face full of lather at any point during my shave. Me time.

    Flipped my shave schedule today as I'm headed back to work after some time off. I shaved late enough last night that I went right in for a single AGT pass. Face is feeling super smooth. I did give myself a light whack on the chin, but I should survive.

    I have moved to 2 toots of the EDP as the nose blindness begins and because I just need more Shire in my life.

    Now that's what I call Austerity Vol. 13

    Have a bit of irritation going under the right side of my mustache. That area on both sides gives me some crap sometimes if I'm sloppy. I think shaving every day makes it even more touchy since that's not usually my thing. I shaved around that area, sort of in a goatee type pattern. Looks silly, but I'd rather let the area heal up a bit.

    I'm halfway there, and my first attempt ever at honing my razor approaches this weekend. I am planning to do some reading today on the subject. Hopefully, it goes alright.

    I have been using Stirling the fresher shampoo and conditioner bars all this August, and they really go nicely with the Shires summery tobacco vibe. They also make my hair feel fantastic. I think I'm going to roll with the Stirling bars going forward. There are plenty of flavors to choose from. I also like the no plastic waste packaging.

    Late night shave after a weekend of camping. I was certain I had a roll of electrical tape around to use to hone the razor tonight, but I looked everywhere and couldn't find one, and it was too late to go to the store. If this fails me for honemeisterschaft, I accept. I am still going to pick up a roll of tape tomorrow morning and hone my razor after work either way because im excited about it.

    OK, I got my shave in and picked up some super 88 3m electrical tape for honing tonight. I have my stones packed up and in the truck as well. Headed to work shortly.

    I am pretty excited about the touch-up on my edge going so well. I just ordered a fire hose strop and a shapton bevel setting stone. Looking at lots of other stuff already too. Down the slippery slope I go!

    Shave went OK this morning. 1 pass atg. Had some reddness in the neck area that was gone by the time I got to work. I am really interested in investigating my razors edge with the loupe that is waiting for me at home. I also couldn't help myself and picked up "the celebrated" scotch dalmore blue hone as well as a Belgian la Lorraine from Griffith Shaving Goods. I'm really excited to check these out, too. Just getting stoned over here.
