    Well today's shave was a bit less than satisfactory. No major issues, just not the excellent results I'd expect. The new brush is hard to put down so that part of the shave is good as gold. The Leviathon, although not my best soap, was certainly more than adequate to get the job done. What confused me is the razor. I purchased this custom made razor and had to do some work on it to get it sharp. It took some time, but this weekend I took out the hones and went through every one of my straights to make sure they were all tree topping hairs like a boss. This one required the stones, but ultimately mowed down hairs with the best of them, so I know it's plenty sharp. It just gives a rough shave, and doesn't give BBS results at all. Never has. I'm a bit confounded. I'm sharpening it and finishing it exactly the same as all my other razors, every one of which shaves without a hitch. I don't get it.

    Great post and photo as well. I will occasionally bowl lather. When I do, I paint on the lather from the bowl. Much like I would paint from a can.

    I'll give you a hint, Joseph....I'll probably get my Stoylin 2019 Tony Award Champion first, before the Gift Certificate choice, since Doc Ezlovan says the certifs never expire.
