    No problem, Rick. There are very few of us that can maintain such a commitment. :rofl:

    OCtober 13th
    Razor: OneBlade Core
    Blade: Feather FHS (1)
    Brush: Heritage C-MON
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: B&M Beaudelaire
    PAA Galactic witch hazel
    PAA unscented Star Jelly
    AS: B&M Beaudelaire

    Good morning!

    The OneBlade arrived yesterday afternoon and decided to take it on its maiden voyage this morning. I loaded the blade, snapped into place but not held in place. I've seen reviews stating that the blade doesn't lock into place but that didn't stop me from removing the blade and trying it again. Yeah, the blade literally rattles around when installed.

    Loaded the C-MON with the beautifully scented Beaudelaire, 15 seconds this morning and still more than enough lather.

    First couple WTG strokes on my neck did nothing. Light touch not working. Applied a bit of pressure, not much, to get the razor cutting. Did my usual three passes for near BBS, faint tickle from the alum. No complaints with the results. Wonderful!

    I'll continue with the OneBlade for a couple more shaves. They say two to three shaves per blade, I'll go for three.

    Have a great Sunday!

    Good Sunday morning all.
    Using this Stirling for the last time, not a fan of it, so it goes to the lend it out pile.
    Got out my little travle razor today, did a great job, new Feather blade, but....
    When I awoke, I noticed the heater was running and the dehumidifier was not.
    Warning 1
    Looking at my outside ther-mo-meter it was 30 deg f outside, coolest morning yet.
    Warning 2
    While shaving it seemed the lather was drying a bit, maybe.
    Warning 3
    I'm just shaving along, carefree and happy when the razor kinda sticks, some.
    4 th and final Warning.
    At the last little bit of the first pass my razor skips and scrapes me neck, soap dried out.
    No blood, but a stern reminder that in the dry winter, you need to keep the suds wetter, dummy. You'd think by now I'd know that.
    Well.....

    The rest of the job went fine, 2 passes head n mug, clean, smooth and ready for the day. Kept the lather somewhat wetter, yea, well....
    All
    Enjoy
