    Blindfolded left handed shavette would be shenanigans for sure, but it would also be showing off.

    But you never know...

    I will play Parkers too. I haven't used mine for a long time. I am already in for shavettes all month anyway.

    The Cobra Classic is up for the run to the Decadent December finish line. The MdC was easily whipped into a wonderful rich lather. Sticking with a 2 pass routine, XTG & ATG, followed by touch ups ended in a near BBS. This result is more than good enough for the dreary foggy start to the morning. I finished off the shave with a splash of Fine Lavender. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

    What a pleasant morning. Even your dreary looks peaceful.

    Yesterday I took HouseHold6 to the Lenox Warehouse Sale. It's about 15 mins. from stately RetLEO-07 Manor. While walking around I was looking for anything shave related. Saw this bowl. It has a 5in. mouth, so I bought it. Keeping with the Decadence theme I used it this morning to whip up my Trumper GFT lather. I also took the Canoe AS Santa brought me for its maiden voyage. The SA-109 was set on "7" and mowed down the two day growth on my mug. Then it was off to work. Have a great day boys and girls.

    Beautiful photo. It was this brush that inspired me to order my red translucent brush from Doug Korn.

    Razor: F2 Gillette FatBoy (3)
    Blade: Astra SP (2)
    Brush: Razorock Plissoft 22
    Soap: Mineral Fusion + Dove Hydrating Cream

    Second shave using the Plissoft. I started with a drier brush and added water as needed, resulting in a very satisfying lather. A nice, mild shave from the FatBoy/Astra for an overall DFS.
