    Missed my shave yesterday as I was called in unexpectedly to work. So, today I tested my theory
    that a straight razor does a better job when there is more hair to "grab".
    Bombed Williams delivered with the M&F Victorian was luscious and creamy.
    The freshly-honed Boker was noticeably sharper than the last time.
    The WTG pass seemed to leave my skin smoother than usual.
    The XTG pass cleaned up the chin and cheeks.
    The ATG pass worked well on the neck. I didn't have time for the ATG on the cheeks and
    I could immediately notice that the result was not BBS.
    Alum-silent.
    Thayer's-painless.
    Aqua Velva-nice.
    AV is under-appreciated juice. Not fancy enough, I imagine.
    Not for this shaver.     ​

    This is generous bunch. Clint @clint64 sent me a nice box with a lot of goodies. Y'all have seen some of it and I'll bring a few razors out next month that he sent me as well. I have a few items I want to send out but I have not had time. I am thankful for the generosity of this group but also thankful for the friendship, fun and information that is shared.
