    There are a few on Ebay, but I find them over-priced.

    September 15 SOTD:

    Razor: Schick Type C3
    Blade: Chick
    Brush: PAA Atomic Rocket
    Lather: PdP
    Aftershave: Ogallala Bay Rum with Lime and Peppercorns
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Unscented PSB

    It was a great shave with the C3 this morning, as I actually find the angle a bit more intuitive with these Repeaters than the Injector types. This soap is really a great performer and was a pleasure this morning. A little Bay Rum with Lime and Peppercorns finished up this great shave. I hope everyone has a great Saturday!

    Screwtape A Shaving Butterfly

    Saturday morning September 15 - SE and samples September Saturday

    Supply Co V.2 Single Edge injector on plate #2 / Personna (? )
    Simpsons CH2 Chubby Synthetic brush
    Hendrix Classics Barbershop soap sample
    Alum and Lucky Tiger and styptic pencil

    I am certainly getting my money's worth out of this free sample @Pete123 sent me --at least half a dozen shaves and no end in sight.

    Did a one and done shave today. Unfortunately I nicked myself below my Adam's apple. Naturally I did what any experienced wetshaver does in these circumstances : I shrieked aloud "Oh woe is me! Blood!" in my best Shakespearean tragic style, added a terrified scream for effect, then gracefully fainted dead away in the bathroom, in the process nearly crushing a cat who had come to see what the fuss was about... When I regained consciousness, I examined the gory sight and determined that I had probably nicked a pimple. Before calling an ambulance to go to the ER, I tried applying a styptic pencil, and that stopped the trickle.

    A healthy splash of Lucky Tiger helped me to recover from the appalling experience...

    Hope you are all on track to have a good weekend!

    DVH is thirsty and in my opinion needs at least a minute blooming.

    Shave at the lake today. Keeping the focus going with the I1 and the Stirling balm. Good products both.
    Rick asked for a pic of the RV bathroom in jest (I think) awhile ago. Here you go @RyX. It isn’t very nice weather today, I think we’re going to a local hot spring for some r and r.
    Have a great weekend, all!

    Excellent 2 passes with a clean up. The Hendrix Classic Barbershop is performing very well. I'm a big fan of American Blend.

    Nice shave, Jason! Enjoy the hot springs. The weather here in Central Alabama makes me want to visit the ice bath instead!
