Blair, that's a great setup and excellent shave!

 

My Bride and I rode Segways for the first time last week. They are the two-wheeled platforms that the Mall Cops ride while standing. Lean forward to accelerate, and lean backward or squat down to slow down. Move handle sideways to turn. They are a blast, and I was convinced we needed a couple of them until I discovered how much they cost. .

It's probably a good thing. I'd just join a Segway forum and get carried away. I'm like that.

 

Gary, very nice shave, setup and pic!

 

It's always the Washingtons that get us in the end ($$$$). I hope you two rode the Segway the RIGHT way(chuck yuk yuk). But it appears you did.

 

Can I have your autograph?

 

Hi all!
Trying to read posts while getting things done is a chore. Seen some great work here in the past few weeks, nice.
Still using my Monobit, going through my small cash of Kai blades with it. Got a nice shave using only one blade to do the whole job today. Having used the Kia's only 3 times, I'm starting to form an opinion of them.
First, my face tells me that the sharpness is a tad below a Feather. Not quite to pull and tug world, but not at feather level either.
Second, the blade seems to keep sharp just enough to avoid serious pulling. So far I get to the last part of the 2cd pass before I get the feeling of impending doom, especially on the chin area.
Third, using the same blade for a two pass head shave feels a lot like the Feathers I'm used to. So no problems there.

They are about 30% more expensive than a Feather, so if I have to use 2 Kai's, I'd go back to Feathers for cost savings.

But the jury's still out, and I have about 17 more Kai blades to run through.

Now if I could only train auto correct NOT to change Kai to Kia.



To all
Enjoy

Great shave, Terry! Stirling Bay Rum SS and AS are the bombs! Have a nice day, my friend!

 

thank you sir..have a great morning..

 

nice shave Terry..

 

Well, as expected, the Grandpa's Barbershop(Central Texas Soaps)is a bit on the warm side for this time of year, but at the same time I didn't feel as if I was lighting my face on fire. I love the soap, and look forward to one or two more purchases from them in the future-certainly that one in late August-September that I talked about in a previous post. The Clubman aftershave was.....well, just good ol'Clubman. Naturally, I used the Clubman shampoo in the shower and the styling gel just before the shave, but I'm getting pretty low on the shampoo. But anyway...with more cool-ish weather ahead, I think I'll stay with the same combination one, maybe two more times.

 

Nice effects Jim!

 

Thank you Gary.

 

Lovely photo amigo! Have a great Tuesday my friend.

 

Great looking photo and shave Blair.

 

Thank you Mark. Back at you. Love the little characters.

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Great looking shave Gary. Love the motorcycle.

 

I'm not sure how my back would handle it(especially the lower right side-lumbar-with that pinched nerve that is the main cause of my cold right foot). But it looks like a great exercise tool if done right.
