    Heavy handles with the Timeless got me bit more than one time. Lighter handles seemed to tame the razor down. I also found using a shorter handle around 85mm made the razor much more comfortable to use.

    I agree you Clint. I should add that I felt that the lighter handle made for a better shave for me, but I didn't take into consideration the shorter handle angle. Thanks.

    Awesome pic. Feels spring-timey, but I know better.

    Yeah. The only tobacco in Tabac is maybe an old butt that got lost in the bottom of Edna's purse, stuck to a nipped off piece of Tic Tac and some mothball.

    Don't get me wrong, Tabac is great.

    Irvadine thinks so too.

    I've always been interested in the scent of Ben Franklin. Is it really like "old man's pantaloons" or something better?!?

    I think the description is supposed to be a bit tongue in cheek. To my uneducated nose it smells a bit like root beer.

    Beautiful setup. The Supply SE looks good enough to tempt me into giving injectors another go.

    Day 2 with Simpson Tulip 3 Super.

    Joining the party today is a Vorpal straight razor and Tabac. The brush did it's magic tons of slick lather delivered generously from it's soft tips. The razor had a smooth and sharp edge. All is right in Friday morning here in the land of the morning calm and afternoon shit storm.
