    What is decadence? Can it be a prime rib dinner with the finest red wine money can buy? Sure. But it can also be a box of Kraft Macaroni & Cheese - the stuff with the fake cheese powder - while watching TV.

    It’s whatever brings you pleasure.

    Like the shave this morning…..

    Damaskeene
    CVS Carbon
    Williams
    VDH brush
    Clubman


    I love the sound of buttering toast in the bathroom! Despite its small size, the Dammy makes a big sound. Yessir….some slick Williams lather. Three passes with the Gem. A very healthy splash of Clubman. This is the kind of shave Fuzzy @wchnu lives for. I wonder if I’ll get hit on by a chunky redhead today?

    RazoRock XXX~~Stirling 24mm Finest~~1947 Gillette Super-Speed~~Perma-Sharp

    These Perma-Sharp blades, with the exception of the extreme glue-dot, are some of the best "modern"
    blades I have ever used. This one, on its 6th (?) shave is better than ever!
    I have to rank them
    better than Polsilver SI, Personna Med Prep and Feather.
    Only blades that are better, IMO, are the Personna 74, Gillette "Spoiler" and the Wilkinson Chromium (Light Brigade)
    Color me impressed.

    *** I will trade 100 Polsilvers for 100 Perma-Sharps ***
    Any takers?
    PM ME
    The Stirling 24mm Finest really delivered today. Such an amazing brush at an incredible price.

    Great picture, Joseph. I agree on the Perma Sharps, definitely a top tier blade in my opinion.

    Ladas (1)
    JR #160
    SC Love
    Alum, Thayers WH, USB, Floid Vigoroso & Aramis


    JR #160 whipped up a mountain of SC lather this cold morning, and two easy passes eliminated a day of growth: WTG and ATG. I finished with all the usual suspects, including Floid Vigoroso and Aramis. This is a nice scent pairing for a cold, overcast December day.

    Have a blessed day, my friends.
