    Beautiful picture, Clint! Do you notice a difference between the Genesis V1 and V2?

    Thank you!

    Jim I only have the V2 Genesis and it requires clipping Gem blades for them to be at their best.

    Mark has both and I'm not sure I've heard him say which he prefers.

    Back to Adjustable August with the SA109, but will come back to the Lux (and the Clix) again. Went with a 4th day for the Nacet as it still seems sharp and smooth. The Green has a bit less menthol than Palmolive and I've always found the performance fine. I got a nice lather and had a pleasant 3 pass shave. No touch up seemed necessary.
    Have a great day, all.

    Houston weather in the summer is always fun. My plane is over two and a half hours late at this point. At first we were waiting for the plane to arrive, now the pilots are still on a plane that is still on the ground in Dallas. Airports are fun.

    That just sucks. Once you are at the airport you're just stuck for the duration.
