    DECember Focusing on a Rule

    SOTD 12052018.gif Same gear, different day. Minor variations; Swapped in a different ferrule & knot, Dropped down from 9 to 7 on the Adjustable. Still not getting the rich thick lather I'd prefer. The obvious answer is load more product and don't worry about leftovers. Serviceable lather none the less with the scent coming out more than when I pulled it from the cabinet several days ago. Lowered the aggression on the #195 for the first time in more than a year. Took my time with correct angle, less pressure, no clean up on WTG & XTG passes. I know where I'd like to over shave - lower neck & right under my jaw line. I'll pay more attention tomorrow! Aftershave either didn't burn as much or I'm getting used to it. No reason to drop back to every other day.
    Good Shaves Y'all!

    You're a funny guy, Rick.

    I'm halfway through my razors. When I'm finished I'm going to do a 30 day focus with one of my new razors while continuing my alphabetical march through my soaps.

    It's more than I would spend too, Gary. It just caught my eye because it was in such nice condition.

    DECember focus in lather. Used the Williams this morning. MUCH improved this time. @RyX I do go antuqueing and have as of yet had the opportunity to run into any vintage Williams. I think there is a cartel conspiracy in the works to snatch up the razors that are on my list, and to that end all the vintage Williams and Colgate soaps, you gotta keep your eye out for the Cartel, never know when it will strike!
