    Another smooth shave with the Tech. 3 easy passes and I’ll pretty smooth. First shave with the new brush as well. The knot is from an Omega 10083, which is the same as a 10049, just with a shiny handle. I did start the break in process before, but it does need several more shaves on it. This is my first beehive, and it is comfortable to use, although it is different that everything else I have. I look forward to getting it broken in.
    I have enjoyed Jeeves January. I used a Jeeves product (or two) every shave save one this month. I did, however, come to realize that the Cherry Blossom scent is a notch below the others for me. I will be Piffing the soap tub soon. As well, I cycled through some ‘oft-neglected’ razors- A few DEs, an Injector and a SE. All are keepers and will probably stay in the rotation.
    Have a great day all, and see you in Favourites February!

    Good Thursday morning to all!

    I received a Schick injector 37 pat Canadian in the mail yesterday.

    20190131_083903.jpg
    What a suprise, with the Schick B-20 blades it's a winner. One pass and clean, no scrapes, weepers or other issues, touch up not necessary.
    I figured out I can do a one pass and done, so that is my goal. No BBS, but a fine shave for the day of work and quick as ever.
    A one pass head shave and done! Not like a 3 pass but still smooth and clean. There was a small blemish or pimple that tried to get going on the left side of the old gord, it is no more!
    Tried to wait it out, it's very small, but took the styptic stick to it so I could get going.
    All the other software ran well and as expected!
    If I go to all the trouble to get a near BBS, it only lasts an hour or two. I figure its not worth the trouble till my shoulder gets better.
    Not sure what I did, but the sholder is bugging me again today. Looks like a trip to the doc is on the list for me.
    Oh well....

    Stay warm, the warmer weather IS on its way.
    Enjoy

    Terrific picture, Terry! You inspired my Favorites February. When EDSIO is done it's going to be bay rum for the rest of the month.
