    Very nice shave, Terry. Your Red Tip loaded with a Feather blade is a solid gold combination! I have tried to perfect my two-pass shave over the past few years. I can drop back to a one-passer with no problems on days when I'm in a hurry or when I'm happy with a nice, clean shave.

    Please continue. :)

    We haven't been looking lately, just working on getting ours ready to go. They're taking pictures on Thursday afternoon so I'm taking tomorrow off to finish up the umpteen little odds and ends that need to be done. We probably won't look until we get back from Spring Break.

    Thanks, Charlie! It's certainly exciting. Some houses in our area are selling in as little as a week, but others take a lot longer. Ours will hopefully go quickly and we'll be free to make an offer on one that we like.

    Up and moving a little slower than I wanted this morning. However, the commute was easier and I have had a very productive morning. Everything worked well together for the morning shave. The Soapy Science is getting toward the end. I can see the bottom of the container through the soap so it won't be long. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday

    Razor: General SE (Str8on2)
    Blade: Feather Professional (2)
    Brush: Los Tres Amigos Dos Simpson Chubby 2 Synthetic LE Jade
    Soap: Cold River Soap Company Jeff's Soap
    A/S: Floid After Shave
    Bowl: Boise Mudworks Pottery Olive
    Another great shave with this equipment. I thought this handle would be a little on the slippery side, but it wasn't. The one thing I noticed was how well the blade fit the top cap. It fits much better than most of my other SE's.

    Thank you. I started on the soap when it first came out last year. I guess 15-20 shaves left.

    Wonderful photo Amigo. The General is really a great razor. I wish they would start selling the razor again.

    @jluc and @wristwatchb I thought I would play along today as well. Wearing my Hemel Arrowhead and Barbour Beaufort jacket into the office today. The watch can be casual or dressy depending on the band and the Barbour jacket always seems to work.

    Good thing I took up shaving before watches.


    Now I just don't have the time.

    :happy102:

    Sorry, couldn't help it.

    Great info, thanks Charlie!

    Eufros Tobacco~~Morris & Forndran~~dubl duck

    Up and at 'em at 4:49am....yawn.
    Chose a variation on the Tabac Tuesday...Tobacco Tuesday.
    Tobacco of choice: Eufros. Yummy scrumptious.
    Superb soap base and the scent is
    exquisite.
    The M&F Blonde Badgers have achieved a quasi unicorn status.
    All this Sabini this and Sabini that.
    I have it on VERY good authority, that Lee Sabini has never tied a knot in his life.

    He had a couple of women do that job for him. So, whenever I see a BST ad stating:
    100% Lee Sabini...I just chuckle. Don't fall for it friends.

    Look, they're great knots, mos def, but let's keep it real.
    The prices these days on Ebay for decent DD razors is through the roof!
    Got this one for a decent price, though.
    Nice shaver and it lived up to the hype today, but still left me with a small reminder,
    that I am not completely adept at wielding this or any straight, for that matter.
    Am I allowed to say that I got this "stropping thing" down :signs002:
    Well, I just said it.
    :happy093::happy093::happy093::happy093::happy093::happy093:
    Smeared the Eufros post-shave balm on for a delicious finish.
