    Thank you Clint!!

    It’s the 3 band. 24mm knot. If I’m not mistaken, you have a 28mm 2 band, correct?

    All I know, the tips are incredibly soft. Their knots are VERY dense and the backbone is excellent. But, man are the tips soft! :)

    Me, mostly. Although Injectors, CJBs and GEMs have been getting in the way some of late.

    I know there are lots of DEs here usually, Chris. Was just poking fun a bit as many of us (I'm like you- mainly DE but mix in other types as well) who often use DEs happen to have pulled out GEMs or other SEs this week. I used a GEM for half of last month myself.
    I blame Fuzzy and his generous PIFs...

    I bought two boxes of SE blades, but I have yet to break out a GEM to try as of yet.

    You’re a positive influence to many people everyday! Your students, for starters.

    I forgot to mention in my shave post, although I couldn’t match your aftershave, I did try a new one. Well, new to me anyway. Old Spice. To my recollection, I’ve never tried it before. My wife walked by and mentioned that I smelled nice, and even came back for a second whiff. To quote Charlie Sheen - “WINNING!”. It doesn’t seem to have much staying power though.

    Does it perform as well as the soap?

    It has been a bit lonely DE-ing lately. I got you. Just playing along. But you're right, every time Fuzzy shows up the single edges come out in droves. It doesn't help that my new Schick E Injector gives quite a nice shave.

    Think I'm gonna bust out some Burma Shave soap tonight. What should I expect? Found it cheap cheap, along with a Burma Shave brush.

    Not quite as well, IMO. It doesn't lather quite as easily and I don't think it is quite as slick. It isn't bad. Just doesn't make the cut in a crowded den.
