    Thank you! Jason does beautiful work. So far I haven’t injured myself with this blade (fingers crossed)

    It looks like almost everyone (else) has one of these cool wooden shaving bowls.

    That's a good way to budget what we have....different shave every day.

    I'm in the same boat. I was born and raised in Kentucky. I see a redneck every time I look in the mirror. :p

    Have a great day, Perry!

    Razor: Schick G8 Injector
    Blade: Chick
    Brush: 30DC LE/Pure Badger
    Cream: KMF fragrance-free
    Post: Alum, Listerine, WH

    I think that my focus, at least for the first part of the month, will be the 30DC brush with the Pure Badger knot I put in it. I'm definitely doing better with it, but still haven't dialed it in yet.

    Today's razor is the Eversharp Schick G8. Not a lot to say here as it basically hoovered up two days growth like it was nothing. No issues except a small slip near my Adam's Apple.

    And with that, we are off to another month of fun...

    Great photo Jason. I like the soap a week deal since it allows me to get everything dialed in but adds variety as well.

    Great focus. The 30DC LE brush has one of the most ergonomic handles I have ever used.

    Once again, missing sections on my right cheek. And this was with Stirling Barbershop! Shouldn't have been the case. Maybe since I'm a southpaw it follows that I let up some on the right. I dunno, just fishing for excuses.

    It is a great brush. I'm just not sure that I made the best knot choice. Although, I think some of it may just be that I'm more used to Boar and Synthetic brushes.

    +1, it is my most ergonomic handle.

    I second that. It’s a wonderful handle.

    Beautiful photo, Clint. I love seeing that red brush and bowl combo!
    Great photo Jim, I love my X3 also and dont use it nearly as much as I should. Too many razors, not enough time. FWP
    Another excellent photo, Charlie!
    Nice setup Perry, I have blades in various stages of use in all of my injectors. Use em till they start to go bad.
    Fantastic shot, Brian!
    Nice photo Jason! Perhaps a heaver load on the soap would be in order? Maybe even venturing into "super goop" territory ?:D

    Thank you Andrew. It hard not to use this brush with the Rossa soap since they match so well.
