    Awesome Gary.

    Thank you. I love your fork design . I am banned from using any more utensils for shaving in our house after last years butter knife incident.

    I think you are Keith.

    Another great pic Jim.

    Terrific picture, Jim! So the scent is recommended?

    I am honestly not sure if I want you to say yes or no.

    I like it and I'm happy with the purchase. I was wondering if it would be too similar to Cavendish but that's not the case at all.

    Beautiful shave today, what the maca root cream lacks in slickness it makes up with its excellent protection, this stuff lathers fantastically and its amazing how little of it you use.

    Ive definitely become a huge fan of the extra slickness most soaps provide, but creams will always be in my rotation for sure.

    Blade: Wilkinson sword (12)
    Brush: Wilkinson sword classic shave premium edition

    Back to the real world this morning. Using the Thäter brush face lathering makes any shave feel luxurious. The soft tips just give a gentle massage while lathering. Three passes and touch ups ended in a near perfect shave. A splash of Myrsol Limon and I am off to fight the morning commute. Now that school is out I hope traffic improves for the next several weeks. I hope everyone has a great Tuesday.

    Haven't shaved since 5/23. A good 1/4" of growth. It's been 2018 since I was this long between mowings. Wow...a little tuggy, but easily a CCS+ for most areas on the first pass. I usually run a palm over the shaven area between passes, to find spots needing more attention. Second pass was for good measure, and force of habit. DFS+ achieved, even on the hardest area for me....lower right neck.

    Wholly Kaw performance was great, nice, slick and creamy lather whipped up with the Drake. This 2 Band Badger holds oodles of lather, and I love to paint it on. The Feather DX and Pro Guard swiped it away, flipping sides, changing hands and angles with a mind of its own....muscle memory kicking in with strong coffee and Kenny Loggins music on the side. Good to be back from a long work weekend.

    Lots of catching up for me here....hadn't had a chance to read since Saturday night. Fun reading and great images always.

    Hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

    Jour numero deux of L'Agadir Homme was good. This time, je spread the gel across my hands and then across my face and neck as I would with shampoo over mon cheveux. Le rasage turned out tres bon.

    Nice shave Clint. I love the greens in the picture. It just all comes together. That Tatara is giving the Karve a run for the most photogenic razor!

    Thank you Danny. I agree both the Tatara and Karve are easy to photograph. I think the finishes on both look good in a variety of lighting and settings.
