    Thank you, Charlie. It seems that we are both on the upswing. But we still have a little way to go to get back to normal

    Thanks, Andrew. No question about TFS designs... and this label is actually better than others they have. Mastro Miche looks like Bill Nye got personal care advise from the scientist on Back to the Future. And, what's with the rainbow? Looks like something from My Little Pony.

    Friday Shave:

    A new citizen arrived in the den, a Riga Razor 7/8. This is a big heavy razor but is 1/2 or 3/4 hollow. Also new is The Vergulde Hand soap. The soap is a good perforrmer with a nice scent. I like there is a lot of room left in the container not just filled to the top, it will be perfect for travel. The is razor is very very sharp yet smooth. After the first pass I had a feeling this is going to be an epic shave. Four passes and a very smooth face, alum test.... Yes and epic shave.

    Irritation A+ Closeness A+ Smoothness A+ Sharpness A++

    Razor: Riga Razor 7/8
    Strop: Dry Gulch black latigo
    Brush: Simpson Tulip 2
    Pre: Nivea
    Soap: The Vergulde Hand
    AS: Guerlain Derby, Speick ASB
    Scent: Dior Cuir Cannage

    I'm going to give up on trying to catch up at this point. Hope everyone is well. It's been crazy busy on my end. Here are three of my last four shaves. The forth was in a hotel room in DC with a disposable.

    I also picked up a new pen case for the razors that don't fit into my other one. I was loading a pocket knife into it when my 30DC LE Mayhem razor bit me. Small cut, but funny considering that it didn't hurt me while shaving.

    I’ve been crazy busy, but enjoying some shaves without thinking about or reviewing new soaps. Pulled out a Treet blade from a sampler pack and was surprised to find I like it a lot. Sharp and smooth with good results.
