    As usual a first class lineup.

    Wonderful lineup Jared. I hope you are not traveling as much during the holidays.

    Great observations on the Toggle. I have enjoyed following along.

    Congrats on snagging a Toggle.

    The Delta Echo Fatboy is a stunner.

    Once again Monday arrived way too soon so its up and off to work today. The Shavemac lathered the CO Bigelow with ease. Three passes and touch ups along my jawline and neck ended just short of a BBS. A splash of Floid Blue and I am ready for the day. I hope everyone has a great Monday.

    My apologies for missing yesterday. I did indeed shave with my Blackbird and a fresh Astra. The Astra works very well in the BB. Another fantastic shave. I am so digging this razor.

    Today, I broke out the Red Dot Fatboy. I cranked it up to 9, dropped in a very sharp Kai, and commenced to load the JR 223 on top of a well bloomed tub of Vanilla Sandalwood (super yummy). 3 passes. Cold water rinse. (2) splashes of VanSand AS. Face balm.

    Great start to the day. Have a good one, men.

    Thank you, Jim. I really like it. It adds a base note to the lime, and seems to hold up a bit longer. I don’t know if we will see another run of it or not. I will miss it when it is gone.

    Wow....serious burn effect with the CF Ghost Town Barber. But once it all settles down-verrrrrry excellent :). I don't think I've ever seen soap lather up so quickly. First use, and it already looks like it's "been around".
