March 05, 2024 – Mammoth MMarch24 Tuesday

  • Brush: Chisel & Hound Pueblo Opaque handle w/ 26mm v20 Fanchurian Badger knot
  • Razor: EldrormR Industries MM24
  • Blade: Personna PTFE Stainless Steel GEM (4)
  • Preshave: Stirling Soap Co. – Unscented
  • Lather: House of Mammoth - Rumble (3)
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger - After Shave and Face Tonic
  • Post Shave: Zingari Man – Unscented AS Balm (172)
  • Tags: #MMarch24

Precision Load; Face Lather; WTG/ATG/Cleanup Passes; DFS Result; 3rd Consecutive / 277th Overall SOTD Post

The cover of my tub of Rumble came loose during ship out and the soap is significantly drier than all of my other Tusk soaps. My Tusk lather-building technique didn't cut it and I once again over-hydrated. The lather was still slick and protective but not of the quality I normally get from Tusk soaps.

The blade's performance dropped off significantly today. Considering I dropped the blade yesterday, having the blade prematurely fail is not a shock. I still want to attempt 31 shaves on a GEM, so I'll restart the 31-shave pursuit tomorrow and extend my personal MMarch24 into April. Happy shaving and have a wonderful day.
