    I wish I had more time to read and pass out likes. Lots of good stuff to read and look at.

    Come on, man! You know it's ruthless in here.... :happy102:

    "President, Derby Fan Club" would have been my first choice for you, Robert. :)

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Now that's just cruel to call someone that. Oh wait, my wife loves those blades. Which is why they are always in my inventory. Of course I'd never sneak one into an aggressive razor and get a great shave out of it.....nobody has pictures of that......so nobody can prove it. :taunt002:

    Finished the way I started, on the Aust. Great month guys! Back tomorrow with the April thread and a wrap up right here on this thread. Today's shave was DFS+, I didn't really try chasing. Super productive day out here on the prairie. Other than that...all is quiet in Colorado.

    Have a great Thursday!

    It's gonna be interesting to use something else. I view straights as "normal" now. Spending April with safety razors should help clear up which method I'd rather use daily.

    Hmmm...in my short time here I've seen you immerse yourself with so many types - injectors, SEs, DEs and now Straights.
    :happy096:

    Something tells me I won't see you settling down with any one type Mr. Samurai! :kar:

    A very good shave this morning. Since my wife and daughters gave me the AOS Sandalwood cream, I need to make an effort to use it more often. I find the AOS cream to be on par with TOBS and I do like the AOS Sandalwood scent more than the TOBS Sandalwood. With a nice slick lather, the 2 pass shave was uneventful. After minor touch ups, I ended with a near BBS shave. Finished up the shave with a splash of CC Sandalwood with menthol added. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.

    Another successful 30 day focus in the books. My goal for the month were to concentrate on Wolfman OC razor during the week and other OC razors for the weekends. I find the Wolfman to be a very smooth and efficient razor. I enjoyed the drama free weekday shaves. It's safe to say that the Wolfman is my favorite DE razor. I did finish one more tub of soap this month as well and hope to further reduce the soap inventory next month. I have enjoyed following the daily posts of other participants in the 30 day thread. In particular I enjoy follow the progress of those learning to master the SR razors. See you guys next month.

    I over slept this morning, so I decided against using a straight this morning. I went with my birth year Tech and got a nice 2 pass DFS. I hope everyone has a great Thursday.
