    Well gotta work today but don't have to be there till round 9, don't have to deliver anyone, anywhere. That means I have time for straights and slants Saturday.
    Took my time on the mug with the Focus shavette with a Silver Blue and got a good 2 pass shave, but for the chin. Got the chin area better, but still scattered. Had to do a clean up pass with the PAA Alpha Ecliptic Slant with a Feather blade. But the open blade passes were much better than last time, much better.
    The head shave, 2 pass with the slant went great.
    No blood, scraprs, burns or any other nasties, to my surprise.

    Enjoy

    Good morning!

    Terrific shave to start the day! Three passes for near BBS. The Vector is a joy to use. Leviathan was today's choice. Recent mention around the Den was the inspiration. As said, this is a polarizing scent. I know my first sniff off the tub had me wondering what the heck I was smelling but by the third or fourth sniff I was hooked.

    Have a great weekend! [​IMG]

    The strength of the Stoylin Frost Drops this morning gave my shave the equivalent of using a Stoylin Glacial combination(w/o the Frost Drops, but who needs em with Glacials?).

    Up and moving this morning. I managed to find La Toja in a local grocery store yesterday. Given my lack of patience, the new shave stick was on deck for this morning. I really like the mineral soapy scent. The performance was better than I had hoped. ATG followed XTG and minimal touch ups ended in a solid DFS shave. I hope everyone has a great Saturday.
