  1. Very nice blues, Jim. I know Clint speaks very highly of Zenith boars. Do they rate highly for you as well?

  3. Thank you Joseph! Since we are only recycling electrons, I see no need not to be punctilious.
    Good news! Less is more when your total technique has achieved an acceptable standard with fewer passes.
  4. This Splash is on its way to me as well! Glad to hear you loved it.

  7. Fabulous photo. The razor looks gorgeous. I hope you’re able to figure out a blade that’ll work.

  8. Thank you Clint! It was an enjoyable experience.
    Humm. You think she thinks that. Maybe she's letting you think she thinks you think she thinks that. Now that you have become aware that she might be letting you think she thinks... wait. Let me start over. :shocked029:

  13. Thank you, Jason.
    I have limited experience with the Zenith. I don't have many uses with it. I will say the one I have is a better looking knot than my Omegas. It does feel closer to being broken in than new Omegas also. I wonder if Zenith has a different process preparing the bristles witch may account for the uniform color and softer tips?

    July 11 SOTD:

    Razor: Rocnel Adjustable
    Blade: Rapira PL
    Brush: PAA Starcraft
    Lather: PAA First Due
    Aftershave: PAA First Due

    This is likely my last shave with a decent razor a for a while. It was nice and smooth and featured my first use of this soap/AS. The scent is lovely with some nice apricot, rose and a hint of smoke to balance it out. Very nicely done. Two passes and DFS.

    My family and I are waiting at the airport for a trip to Scotland and London. It definitely takes a lot lo get to get through security with this crew, but we are through and hoping for a smooth flight to Manchester. Then we catch a train to Edinburgh. It is going to be Planes, Trains, and Automobiles for us today.

    Here is a picture of my whole crew minus me at the gate.

    I hope everyone has a great day.
