    Don't forget to stuff some part of Santa full of shaving soap to get the full Pickled effect.

    Thank you Dan! For whatever reason, that Super Speed is one of my favorite razors - even though it didn’t wanna play nice today! ;)
    We all have “off days”. Today was one of mine. Helps keep ya humble.

    Excellent photo & lineup Dan! Props to your bride again too! Gillette adjustables on 1 are very, very tame aren’t they?

    Nice write up! Agreed with the Astra SPs. I usually use them for a full week. I think they probably could go a little longer and still be effective. At $.09 though, I feel that they’ve earned their keep if they last a week. They are excellent blades.

    Have a fun time this evening at the Christmas dinner!
