    Thank you, Jason! Barbon is a pretty nice cream that can be had for relatively cheap on the bay, so I am sure I will get some more at some point. I won't mind finishing up another product from my drawer.

    Thank you, Clint! I would say we should start a support group, but I think we would all end up buying more shaving things!

    Yeah, NB'18 is all very well, but when it's over, thanks to the enablers in the 30DC, I already have a want list of three splashes, at least eight soaps and creams and two rather expensive razors...

    Thanks, Clint. Yes, I have to admit the enablers here were right that the Soap Destroyer is a very nice brush. Whether I actually needed it is another issue entirely of course...

    Watch forums are worse than shave forums. All the questions of which watch to buy between two choices have the same answer. "Buy them Both"

    Finally, a small ring of death appeared in the Stirling puck. Using this frequently has changed my mind about the soap and now I am impressed. The Koraat had great ede and delivered a very nice shave.

    Strop: Harold Russian leather
    Brush: Semogue boar

    Keith, the Koraat is a beautiful razor. I just love the look of the translucent red scales.

    Good evening gentlemen! I hope everyone had a good day.

    Menthol Monday. Very nice two pass shave with touch up on my chin. DFS.

    First use of my SOC mixed brush. Stiff little son of a gun. I like it.

    Have a great night! [​IMG]
