Early morning shave, late afternoon post. Pulled out the oft-neglected Kami-style Shavette (from @Keithmax) for the first day of May. Love the simple Lime scent of this soap (also from @Keithmax). Did 2 passes, but wanted a little touch up and pulled out the ball-end Tech for a little jawline work. One minor nick on the chin, but it stopped easily enough. All is good.
Have a great evening, all!

 

You wrote about it recently in passing as a frustration. For me, the solution was really paying attention to growth pattern, and not "leaning in" toward the mirror. Focus on those, along with angle discipline and great stretches. You'll get it!

 

Ahhh, ok. Things have been pretty good there. Thanks for the advice.

 

Did you know that this thread is really just a secret Dark Side recruiting outpost? (;

 

It doesn't get much better than a NEW LC in my humble opinion, Jim. Your MonoBilt is one of the few (the only?) OC in my den that can compete.

 

Nice shot, Clint. Hope the client meeting went well.

 

I remember that razor from last year, Patrick. I also remember that you weren't allowed to access the cutlery drawer any more after that...

 

Many have tried, few have succeeded. Much like a Bryan Adams fan club.

 

Great photo and shave Jason.

Great photo, Joseph. I enjoy my long handled brushes as well.

 

Thank you Jason. The meeting did go very well.

I still say we get to keep Shania. Fair trade for Bieber.

 

No Blade Holder! On May 1! I'm worried to see where you are going to go from there, Jim. Awesome photo, while you still have a jugular...

 

Jason, great shave, report and picture. I have got to get my Kamisori style shavette out this week. I just need a little more courage. I have shaved with it one time with the cheap blades that came with it but I ordered some Feather Pros for it. We will see how it goes.

 

Welcome back, Adam! You've been missed. MAYhem wouldn't be the same without your stunts, that's for sure.

 

Awesome turning, Danny! You're already coming up with some really original, practical stuff.

 

Thanks Jason...it turned out better than expected and I love seeing old razors coming back into use. Take care!

 

Awesome photos, Andrew. Declan is growing well. Do you find the J shaves similarly to the I with the same head? Do handle lengths make a difference?

 

nice shave sir..

 

I'll be thinking of your daughter, and hope she gets the resolutions she is looking for soon, Brian.
