    Just beautiful, Clint. I didn't remember that you had two Supply razors until now. One V1 and one V2?
    There are lots of things that make a greatly scented shaving soap that I wouldn't want in a mixed drink...:)

    Nice combo, Blair. Proraso Green was my first menthol soap or cream as well. I found it to be a huge menthol hit at first, and then got more used to it. I'm not a huge menthol head, but do like it on occasion.

    Love the colours (and the gear!), Perry.
    I'm thinking of putting some additional weight in my Black Hawk handle...

    I do have a couple of blue brushes but it's been awhile since I've used the Taj. I don't want to neglect anything.

    Stirling Mentholated Pre-Shave Soap
    EDRIO#93 Schick Type D DE Prototype
    Sharp Star (5)
    WWB Jungle Ebonite (26mm SHD Bulb, Frigate Class)
    Stirling Iced Pineapple soap and AS
    Stirling EMP EdT

    Interesting shave this morning and one that challenges some DE design principles. This prototype razor is built on a Schick Type D handle and uses a full size DE blade. The blade sits completely flat in the head with no bend to it. The blade also only receives mild support from the top cap. Modern razor manufactures love to preach the benefits of blade support and edge reinforcement though tight tolerances, blade bend radius, and blade clamping. This razor features none of those things and still produced a great shave without any sort of "chatter". Of course the Iced Pineapple was delightful and the EMP EdT is really keeping the pineapple vibe going. Have a pineapply good day everyone!

    Thank you, Jason! I agree that the Hawk handle is pretty darn light.
