Thanks, Andrew! The Palmolive was an unexpected surprise! I'll be using it in the morning. Sent from my SM-T800 using Tapatalk

Arko Adjustable April April 16 Razor - 1962 (H1) Gillette Slim (9) Blade - (3) Soap - Arko Brush - The Canuck Post - Alum Third day with the Slim and Ladas and the Canuck was called in to load massive amounts of Arko. If I had a way of storing it I wouldn't have to lather for a week, at least. Two passes, touch ups, near-BBS, I'm a happy and tired camper. On the STL BBQ front - I have found what appears to be a hidden gem hiding in a strip mall in Overland (I know, reference means nothing but think small run down area and a strip mall.....hence the "hidden gem"). It's called Ms. Piggie's and I've seen the ribs and smelled the restaurant, the food, and myself after standing in said restaurant waiting on said food to deliver. Seriously, it's like I died and went to BBQ heaven. I plan to give it a try this weekend. It's probably not a place we'd want to have a sit down dinner in for the meet up - but it might be a place to cater from. No, I haven't given up on Hendricks.......but we may need a Friday night diversion. Come to think of it, a sit down in a backwater BBQ joint might just be the thing! Have a fantastic Wednesday!
April Adjustable on a Tabac Tuesday Tabac Original SS SP→2 VS Black badger Ming Shi 2000s on MAX Fresh GSB blade Pinaud Special Reserve Misplaced my cheaters so I'm typing with fuzzy vision. Skipped the bowl to face lather because I like the texture of this knot. Tabac went on thick and pasty but with water added to the knot everything evened out. Fresh blade behaved well so that by third pass I could tell there wasn't much stubble left. Gave a cursory lower neck and edge of jaw clean up hearing no noise from the blade. A splash of juice had the barest sting. Good Shaves Y'all!
Robert, as you may well know, I am a staunch supporter of Dovo razors. My Dovo shavette, the Best and the Special have always given me great shaves. My Dovo shavette was my gateway to traditional straights. This company has many different razors to fit any man's budget and fancy. I will never badmouth this company.
