    Nice shaves. Everyone that has a clog proof always gives it high marks.

    This is what a BBS shave looks like . The Arko still has that scent you all adore , the Rapira platinum blade should be part of a quarter panel of a car by now but its still shaving like a new blade . The razor is not fancy but more importantly effective. Topped it all off with some good ol Aqua velva musk.

    Doug, great report, pic, gear and shave. I still have a sample of Moon Soaps Havana that was piffed by @Primotenore - Joseph and I didn't have any trouble lathering and shaving with it.

    Thanks Danny. Mine came free with a blade order of mixed Russian steel. Best move I made was ripping the package open and giving it a try. Original plan was just hang it on wall in package for nostalgic reasons.

    6am shave, 10pm post. Nothing horrible, just one of those days. Everything worked as it should, which given the products today was a very good thing. 3 easy passes left me just short of completely smooth. I guess it is only 8 hrs ‘til I get to shave, and hopefully post, again.
    Have a great night, all!

    RyX DoH!

    That's the only way to defend yourself against the onslaught. I'm bleary eyed from a long day and the YouTubes were droning me to sleep. I know there's information content but it's have to wait until tomorrow. Or whenever I catch up.
    (Note to myself - go back to post #5201 / page 261 for unread content.)
    (Note to Charlie @wristwatchb - you aren't making this any easier...)
