Thanks, Danny.

 

A GEM Gbar makes for a wonderful shave. Fantastic!

Thanks, Jim.

 

Every time.

 

Thank you Clint! This brush is a monster but so fun to use!

 

Excellent shave, pic and of course, the gear, Bruce!

 

I am sure the difference in shaves will be negligible. Hope everything is settled with your dad, my friend.

 

Whoa, nice setup Bruce! And a CG razor? Livin large, my friend!

 

Awesome set up Bruce. Really like the design on that razor handle! And yes to the same on Jason's work for the 30DC LE v2 brush. It is very nice, comfortable and the SynBad knot is awesome as well. While not completely changing my mind on a synthetic knot, it is by far the best I've used.

Know those moments too well Danny. You are a great son to be doing everything you are doing!

 

Thanks Joe!

 

Robert, very nice shave. Glad to see you back on the "straight" and narrow.

 

Awesome shave Robert!

 

Thanks Danny! Unfortunately, it is out of necessity that I go full throttle.

 

Ok guys, now I am finally caught up! I just wanted to say that I usually don't buy a razor unless it is something that I want, shave ready and the price warrants it. As you know, I have a nice, diverse and modest collection of straights. There are only 3 razors that I want to add and today I bought one of the three. I bought a shave ready, 6/8 round point, full hollow Thiers-Issard Spartacus with black acrylic scales from Maggard razors for $99. I usually get my used or NOS razors on Ebay, but for some reason I was on Maggards just to browse. I was going back and forth on buying this razor for awhile. I said to myself,"If I bought this razor new it would be about 145 or more. Moreover, TI razors do not come shave ready so I would have to sharpen it. Therefore, purchasing it was a no brainer because you don't get a TI used or new that is shave ready and in excellent condition for $99. Hopefully, I will get it some time by the end of next week.

 

Congrats on the new razor, Joe!

Very neat setup Robert. Finishing a tub, awesome....time to go shopping!

Can't wait to see it Joe. A TI has been on my search list.....but between a No Buy July and not quite finding 'The One' yet....it may be awhile.

 

An Enders shave this morning, using a fairly mild setting. I prefer a more aggressive setting but no problems here.

Terrific picture, Bruce!

 

Thank you, Joe!

 

Thanks Jim! It should arrive by the end of next week. I will post a pic when I receive it.
