    Thanks, Clint.
    I need to use the brush more to form a proper opinion. I only have a few shaves with it. I'm going to use it for the rest of the month, that should give me a good idea.

    Hi Pete. All the credit goes to @NCoxSTL. That's his razor, although others here have used them as well during MayHEM. As for me using one... :scared003: :scared007:

    I occasionally use and enjoy shavettes, but I think it would be tough to overcome the blade chatter with a bolt razor. I'm sure Neal will chime in soon to give his two cents, as I know he's used it successfully more than once.

    Thank you, Charlie! My hotel is right across the street from the conference, so I shouldn't have to fight traffic too much. The first few days I am there, I should have lots of free time, so I'll see about trying that place out. Thanks for the tip.

    Thank you Andrew & Clint!

    Pete, you mentioned giving the Weishi a trial with the idea of placing it in a Newbie Starter Set. Has your experience changed your mind? Considering an alternative? I figure Charlie's Aggression Progression might be a bit extreme for folks who haven't joined us here in The 30 DC.
    Mark it on your calendar - MAYhem 2019. The stainless nut & bolt with a Hi-Stainless Feather blade may look outrageous but it was one of the more conventional blade holders that made an appearance. I didn't try it, but from reports it did shave well.
