  5. Thanks Chris! I also have 64 traditional straight razor shaves to boot. So my total straight shaves are 114.
  6. Congrats on a cracking first run with the R41 on the bulldog handle, James! I also have an R41 head on a Weber bulldog handle, and I would agree that it's a great shaver. I'm also glad you like the Proraso balm...if it's anything like the quality of the shave cream, you have a winner there also.

  10. With how hectic life and work have been, plus problems with my phone I haven’t had many chances to post my last few shaves. 62E1B22C-4CAF-4B8A-B001-61CE7654D462.jpeg 65C0EAB0-ABEC-4DFA-BFD7-03C3006D3040.jpeg

  19. Joining the Arko fun today. I did not want my puck of Arko to feel like I was discriminating against it so I used a fancy M&F brush and my pimped out Ed Brice straight. I was going to use Guerlain Vetiver but it is a cold rainy day so I decided to go with Guerlain Derby to match the weather.

    Irritation A+ Closeness A Smoothness A+ Sharpness A+

    Razor: Ed Brice 7/8 half hollow
    Strop: Roo
    Brush: M&F Blonde Badger
    Pre: Nivea
    Soap: Arko
    AS: Vintage Derby AS, Speick ASB
    Scent: Guerlain Derby
