    They're very well made, and they're also efficient. I don't know how his shipping times are now, but don't be in a hurry.

    I had some issues at one point like that too.
    I had to shaved every day so I only did one pass, with the grain, for a while. Till I got better at the chore, then every other day I did two, for a while and so on. Till I got up to 2 passes a day. I also found that using witch hazel before I go to bed helped. I shave in the morning.

    Thanks for the review, Bruce. I have one leather scented soap that I enjoy which led me to look at other leather scented soaps and aftershaves. I was looking at the Noble Otter and the Wholly Kaw.

    For injectors you can get these blades easily:

    Schick 'Chick':

    Personna:

    Schick Proline:

    The Proline blades do have an injector key, so you have to cross-load them into an empty magazine or load in the razor manually.

    There are TONS of vintage blades on the bay and floating around elsewhere. The three mentioned above are currently produced and easily found.

    For injector blades, check with @Linuxguile and his Andrew's Shave Shop first. He usually has Personna and Prolines on hand for great prices.

    Thank you, Jason!

    Update - she was discharged from the hospital. Tests confirm it was not a heart attack. They also thought it may have been ischemia, which involves plaque in the arteries, but this not confirmed. They are actually leaning toward some type of GI issue, which seems odd to me. Nevertheless, she is at their Boise home now and resting. Says her back is still in pretty good pain. They are currently planning to travel back to Alabama on Tuesday and she'll visit some doctors here at home.

    Thank you ALL for your prayers and well wishes. Means a lot. This is the best thread on any forum anywhere.

    Oh my....best wishes for you mother, Perry.

    Edit: just read your update. Sounds like the scare was downgraded, which is very good news indeed. Still...best wishes for her.

    My pleasure, Jim.
    I’ve said it before, but Flying Hide is the scent I hoped Chiseled Face Midnight Stag to be. Midnight Stag pretty much smells like straight-up gasoline. In a weird way, I kinda like it. My wife, however, does not. The Noble Otter gets the nod of approval, though. It’s mainly a manly leather scent.
    Noble Otter seems to be gaining traction, and I’ve read where some folks put the performance up there with Wholly Kaw. That I can’t confirm...no WK in the den - yet.

    So glad to it wasn't her heart Perry, but none the less I'm still praying she gets back to her self again.
