    Late checking in today...looks like a Shavette Fu special to catch up:

    Looks like you're having a good run with that Rocnel, Jim. Congrats!
    Another great matching colour photo, Jim. I matched the brass on my Injector to the brass on the brush today. A poor man's jluc again. Did you notice?:happy097::eatdrink047:
    Awesome combo, Perry. Hope you didn't have too long a day at school.
    When you say 2.5 passes, Joe, what constitutes the 3rd .5 pass for you?
    Hump Day! Awesome that they play well together, Andrew.
    I used to see a lot of Valets in Antique stores. Never pulled the trigger on one.
    Carpet blade? Yup, MAYhem for sure...

    Thank you Joe.

    Will do.

    El Druida brushes are Spanish as well. Not sure if Romera or Druida are in Barcelona, I can check. I thought the local pharmacies might have some Spanish and Portuguese shave sticks or creams.

    Thank you Joseph. My wife and I love Barcelona. Since we didn't really have a chance to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary last month, I am really looking to spending a long weekend with her in the city.

    My 1/2 pass constitutes shaving just the jawline and neck ATG. My cheeks are BBS after 2 passes so I don't need a 3rd cheek pass. Originally, I would say 2 passes and touchups. Now, I replace touchups with the 1/2 pass that I just described. Hope that clarifies my posts.

    @jtspartan Jason, I asked Maya's opinion on the Cubebe and Sicilia. She said the Sicilia had a "soapy scent" where the Cubebe had a "cologne scent" . Of the 2, she preferred the Cubebe. Now what that means to a 20 year old young lady, I really have no idea but I thought I would pass it along. I will get SWMBO opinion later. She is having a rough day and I am trying to stay away.

    Awesome!

    Floid hails from Barcelona, too. I have no idea whether you can visit.

    Elsewhere in Spain, Puente Nuevo in Ronda is on my list.

    jluc smelling pretty

    Thank you, Jason!

    I did notice the matching and I felt the soap and aftershave labels tied in nicely as well.

    Oh on mine too along with several of the Pueblos Blancos. We have some friends that are from Spain, Pete and Cindy. We would like to go with them when they visit.

    "Made in USA" on the package means that they're made by Personna too. They've been the last man standing of US blade manufacturers for a while.

    Thanks! I probably can’t go wrong. What is the tin like on the Cubebe-Flimsy like Felce, or sturdy like Colonia?
    Smart move on the SWMBO space btw...you are the voice of experience.

    Oh god the tin on Cubebe makes the Felce tin seem to be built like a bank vault. It is really really flimsy nothing like Colonia. The tin is a bit larger though.
