    November 23rd
    Razor: Blackland Vector
    Blade: Feather AC Super (6)
    Brush: PAA Switchback/TGN boar
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: Hendrix Classics & Co.
    Thayers Lavender witch hazel
    AS: Fine American Blend

    Good morning!

    Great shave on this Black Friday! Three pass BBS. The blade felt tuggy on pass three, time for a swap. I'll do the Schick next.
    I still haven't made up my mind what razor will be up for tomorrow. I was thinking the Dart to stay on focus with my month of Blackland and I need more practice with it, but I am curious about the Prolines in the Vector, which would still be on focus. Or I could go with the Supply razor and throw the focus out the window. Decisions, decisions.

    Have a great day![​IMG]

    Andrew @Linuxguile knew right away what I did. Shortly after ordering the Sabre I ordered blades from him.

    I would be very careful using metal polish. I am afraid you'll do damage to the finish.

    Just made a Stirling order that I am 100% blaming on the skillful enabling of this group. I wasn’t ware they did anything for Black Friday, let alone special scents. Ordered Black Pepper & Limes, and Bonaparte sets, along with some other stuff. While I consider thier free shipping with $75 order a plus, it’s probably not something I will mention to Mrs. Gultch as justification.

    I got Black Pepper Lime, Haverford, Stirling Green, Kaboom, and Ozark Mountain sets as well as a bar of mentholated pre-shave soap. I was over the $75 threshold. SWMBO rolled her eyes. :scared003:

    I am in slow motion mode this morning. The Semogue Mixed knot is one of my favorite brushes hitting well above its price point. The brush tons of backbone with relatively soft tips. Three passes left me just short of the baby which is more than good enough. A splash of Fine Lavender and I am ready for some more relaxation. I hope everyone has a great Friday.

    I made that mistake onetime and destroyed the finish on a near pristine razor.
