🚨🚨🚨 TUB KILL! 🚨🚨🚨
Same setup as yesterday (aside from the brush and aftershave), but a more comfortable shave.
Thrill of the kill!
Congrats on the kill! Especially since it’s a huge Stirling tub.
Thanks! By my math (thanks to using it during AA and weighing as I went), a tub of Stirling lasts me approx. 53 shaves.
Other people claim their 1oz samples last 30 shaves… That’s crazy!
53 is a very respectable number. I guess 30 from a sample puck could be very frugal loaders. Personally, I prefer heavy loading and if I recall correctly, you’re in the same boat… While frugal feats sound impressive, there’s no shame in loading like it’s going out of style. After all, if there’s one thing we all have enough of it is shaving soap.
I’m definitely in the same boat. I have no interest in thin lather.
Congrats on the kill!

- Post Shave: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
- Fragrance: Mäurer & Wirtz – Tabac Original
My new Böker 14er is waiting on the to-hone pile, but I still wanted some 14 goodness today, so I brought out the trusty Friodur, hands-down my favourite razor. The 14 form factor and it’s stainless? What’s not to love?
Unsurprisingly, I had a wonderful stankening with this tried and true hard and software.
