    Great photo Doug. How aggressive in the Timeless 0.95mm on the same scale? That will allow me to better compare.

    I hope you feel better soon and that respiratory infection doesn't hang on.

    In the meantime I was deeply moved to hear of your sad loss of your scrapbooking backgrounds . Would you like the 30DC Prayer Circle to pray for your spiritual comfort and support as you work your way through the grieving process , or do you think you can make it to Walmart on your own?

    Thanks John! I'm getting better each day, but it has been a slow process.

    If someone could send me $5, that would pay for a new booklet of scrap booking backgrounds and immediately resolve my grief. :happy102:

    Thanks very much Clint. The Timeless 0.95 mm is more aggressive by a small amount. The difference between L1 and L2 is substantial. If you like the Timeless 0.95, and I know you do, go with the L2. You won't be disappointed. IMO.

    Now the only question is whether or not I'm getting better with the razor or due to I'm on the 8th or 9th shave on the blade and it's getting smoother.:signs002:

    Maybe both. :happy097:

    Thank you, Clint. A couple of our travel mates in Israel got pretty sick on our trip. 15 hours on 3 different airplanes probably didn't help much, either. I'm thankful that I made it home before I felt any ill effects. Feeling pretty good today...if I can just get rid of the cough I'll be good.

    Pre-shave: hot shower & Nivea Men Sensitive Face Wash
    Cream: Barbasol Pacific Rush
    Razor: Magic by Master Barber
    Blade: Derby Professional (1)
    Post-shave: Thayer's Lavender WH, Nivea Men Sensitive PS Balm, Stetson Cooling Moisture AS

    Picked up the shavette again for today's shave. I loaded a fresh blade and went for the Barbasol Pacific Rush for my skin protection. I just took my time, concentrated on the angle and the direction I was going and ended up with a close, comfortable shave on the cheeks... not so close on the neck but after a clean-up I wasn't about to challenge the Wet-Shave fairies anymore than I had to.

    I trust everyone is having a great weekend so far.
