    Jared, I misspoke. You'll always be the 30DC cute little shaver. Looks like you're using Williams in the photo. :happy097:

    Prep: Cold water and Stirling mentholated pre-shave soap
    Blade: Schick
    Razor: Schick G1 injector
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Lather: Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave
    WTG, touch up

    Fat Friday worked like a charm. Great shave with The Fat and the G1. Whipped up terrific lather with the Omega brush and finished with Fine American Blend. This is a great way to start Friday!

    Out of my routine a little bit today. The students have today off and teachers are in meetings all around the district. All the fine arts teachers are gathering to review new state standards. Might be a long day. :)

    But hey, it's Friday! :eatdrink047: Enjoy your day!

    Thank you, Clint! The razor has the 0.78 mm gap. Nice, efficient, and smooth.

    Been a busy week. Everyone is feeling better, but work has been nuts. Grabbed a humble Prewar Tech this week. Here are my last two shaves. Still trying to catch up on the thread.

    Day 6 with the Tech, 3rd with the Wizamet. Stirling is a fave soap for sure, and the Gin and Tonic gets neglected by me a bit this time of year. Great lather with a great scent this morning, and went with a traditional 3 pass shave without touchups. I’d call this a nice, smooth shave, finished off with Florida Water and a little bit of balm for my neck.
    Have a great day all!

    Not sure if this is a focus, but I'm on the same Wilkinson blade since February 1. Sort of blowing me away. It resides in my Blackbird and I've used it for 14 shaves so far.

    After a year of staring at an Arko stick, I finally shaved with it and reviewed it here. Other than that, I'm just waiting for @Linuxguile's little man to declare it officially Friday.
