    Thank you, Perry! I am tempted to pick up some more Green as a back up.

    I wake up stressed about work entirely too often. Good luck getting the situation sorted out. At least you were able to start the day with a good shave.

    Wonderful shave and photo Jim. Your photos are making the Vector very tempting.

    I am working in my office today, so I was able to sleep a little later. Three passes and touch ups ended in a BBS shave. I keep reopening the one nick/weeper from the other day. Another Epic shave spoiled. A splash of Fine Santal and I am ready for what I hope is a productive day. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

    A beautiful brush Jason! I cant wait to see what other creations you come up with. Awesome handle shape too!;)
    Excellent shave Neal! I'll be attempting to apply the mantra of TTT to the Ikon Tech next shave.
    Beautiful brush, Gary!
    Excellent shot Jim! Have a safe trip! I need to get my X3 out for a shave or two!
    Fantastic photo, Perry! I like the containers you use for your samples!
    I hope things settle down at work, Randy. A good shave is a great way to put things into perspective to start the day!
    Beautiful photo, Jim! I'm trying to resist the AC rabbit hole!
    Excellent shot, Clint! The OREN is such an industrial looking razor, very cool!

    Screwtape A Shaving Butterfly

    Tuesday morning November 13

    Dad's Canadian Gillette pre-War triangle-slot fathandled Tech / Rapira Swedish Supersteel (5 or 6)
    APShaveCo U-Brush with 24mm Flat Top knot
    Valobra Unscented tallow soap
    Alum and Thayers Witch Hazel Rose Petal

    Following on from yesterday's shave with TSD Sensitive soap, I used another unscented product today - the Valobra hard tallow puck. Loading was easy, face lathering was quick, and the performance was good. The pre-War Tech is a mild but very efficient razor, putting me back to BBS in two passes. I went with just witch hazel for the finish, although in a lightly scented version.

    Overall a good shave to start the day.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Well if you don't have oompa loompas then I can stop eating so much ice cream. I've been hoping to win the golden ticket for the visit to see if I'm worthy to fly out the top of your factory in a flying elevator after being told I'm the new owner. I'm a bit let down knowing you're mortal! :ashamed001:

    Thank you Andrew. Industrial is much kinder than the way I would describe it. The OREN is a ugly cross breeding of the OneBlade and Cobra. So ugly neither parent will claim it. ;)
