    Believe it or not, I'm becoming eager and anxious to try shaving with that "kitchen knife". But I'd probably do damage, as I had difficulty with angling.

    Thanks, Jim! I had some issues with the editing program, but i guess the end result was good enough.

    Thank you, Perry! They will pack the razors and such, but no soaps, creams, or AS.

    Great report Joe.
    I like the assault on the vintage AS. It is there to be used, not viewed :)

    Randy, Indiannapolis is a nice city and the Civic Center always has suggestions for the visitor to see or do. Hopefully, you can enjoy it, if you have some downtime.

    AAAAAAAAAnd on this first day of the month, it is too early to project a survey winner, but Whatever I Choose is in front by 20% over Mighty Fat and No Fat. We'll see how this progresses.

    Good OCtober Tuesday morning everyone!
    Put away the SE's and got out an open comb double edge razor this morning.
    My Pearl TTO OC with Feather blades. Being it's Tuesday I loaded my Enrico brush with Tobac and got to work. 2 passes with the feathers, I have a clean smooth shave that's hard to beat. Yes, I used 2 feather blades, one for each pass of the mug. Then used those two blades to clean the hat rack. The brush gave me a nice helping of rich wonderful lather that made a great start for my day.

    I'm clean, smooth and ready for the day.
    Oh, by the way, this razor does not lean toward the kinder, gentler type. It can be a little harsh if not controlled properly. The handle is heavier than most, paired with a Feather blade, it can be a real brush hog.
    All
    Enjoy

    Oct 1st

    Proraso PS Red
    Proraso Single Line SC - Wood & Spice
    J3Customs 8/8 Kamisori
    Semogue OC Boar
    AoS Olibanum Pepper ASB

    2.5 DFS+ Absolutely love this Kamisori. Very smooth efficient shaver, hefty, easy to control. Such a hunk of steel, you can feel the heat this blade holds from each hot water rinse as you swipe. Proraso PS and SL SC a first rate combination whipped up by the Semogue OC Boar. No shenanigans to report. Followed up with the Art of Shaving's new Olibanum & Pepper ASB.

    Hope everyone has a Terrific Tuesday!

    Very nice shave, Jimbo.
    Wow. That picture is "magazine-worthy".
    Thanks, Perry. It should be a fatastic (sic) month.
