    I never used PSO to prepare my stubble because I get great shaves without it.

    Just to prove yet again that this thread is impervious to be hijacked. This post has neither Arko, nor and Adjustable. However, techniquely it is a band razor, so I could ADJUST the band........

    Mostly I just like this picture and had a wonderful shave this morning, I just had to share it with the family!
    (Warning long write up ahead)
    Today is rainy, blustery, and just an Eeyore kind of day .However, they didn't stop me from having a first class shave!!!

    Was looking at this razor all.week long, and after one last look, I just had to give her a try! Not the worst shave, but not the best shave either. It goes to show what is always soap here, technique trumps tools. DFS with the eversharp!
    Still LOVE the scuttle, and while I don't need to, I use it in every shave just because I can! It will be a keeper for sure!

    The brush, not so much. It's not a bad brush, but it's not a keeper either. I don't particularly get excited about it and while it performs just fine, I'm not going to keep it. I still prefer the boar knots that are stiff and have lots of back bone.

    Since the soap is a custom deal, can't say much here except a review is coming. I can say this, I wish I had known about the orange blossom cologne before. I will be keeping this one and using it judicially.
    Enjoy your day and shave on!

    More nicks with today's shave, but the fact that using my glasses has been a huge help(it's nice to SEE the fruits of my labor), almost cancels out the nicks-annoying as they are. About to turn 62, I'd better use the specs from here on out.

    One thing I always think about with these old tractors is how they kept a family feed.
