    Just had a great lunch with Jim @jluc . Swapped some stories and got to know each other and had some good food. I can't wait to give the Blackbird a shot and do some side by side comparisons with the Dart. Thanks Jim!

    Thanks Jason! We do get a fair amount of foot traffic in our neighborhood. We wont be taking the boys out door to door but my wifes office has some festivities for the kids and there are some community Trunk Or Treats that we are going to take Logan to as well.

    Wonderful photo and lineup. The razor and handle look great together.

    Thank you Andrew. The tips are splitting and getting soft. Given the loft in this brush, I don’t think it will open up much at all.

    Great SOTD photo Andrew. I’ve always been curious about the soap.

    Logan seems to really like his Halloween Costume. TGIF. Made my day.

    Thank you, Clint! I do like the scent and the soap base performs very well. At $25 a tub though it is a little more then I usually like to spend on a soap.

    Guess I'm in the same mindset. If I started with mild DE's I've migrated to aggressives. At one time I had the trio of Blue, Flare, and Red Tip. All the Flare Tips have been traded away. When my dad asked about trying a DE a week ago, I gathered up the two Krona he'd sent my way and a couple other milds I don't use, and tossed in the only Blue Tip I've ever found in the wild. Should he ask about something more aggressive I'll watch for a Red but I don't want to give mine up.

    In my neighborhood the lots are 50 feet wide. Dense enough to collect candy quicker than you'd burn off the calories. Haven't had any one walking, knocking on Halloween for years. Either the parents don't want to accompany their children, or don't trust the neighbors. It's all church Fall Festivals & Trunk or Treating.

    Well, as I've been talkinabout, my issue might have been the soap&A.S. duo of Tobacco&Leather. Jim,. I see you had lunch with Andrew..do you live in Colorado, too?

    I can't compare them directly right now because Jason @jtspartan has my Supply. I think the shaving angle is similar but the Injectomatic has more blade feel. Closer to the Supply on plate #3 than on the middle plate I usually use. The Supply seems directly modelled on the stainless steel PALs - the Adjustable and it's sleek stablemate.

    maybe ask Jason to do a comparison when he has both in his hands.
