Out-Cash OCtober

While my detractors may wish to claim that my Hardware Expansion Sponsors @jluc and @clint64 worked their magic for September, I proclaim Out-Cashing in OCtober totally justified on this razor.

Giving it a run with a Chick Blade proved to be sufficient to subplant the Schick I1 for the management position in the Max Headroom Injector department. I will have to see what the Supply (Personna?) blade is like in the I1 though.

Great shave with the 2019 meetup memorabilia.

As was pointed out by my Hardware Expansion Sponsors, the time to get in on the Steel products before the price increase is now.

Great stuff happening for the Supply People, Shark Tank, new lower cost razors, new blades, new injector mechanism, and who knows what else the future will bring. Nice stuff for good folks.



And no, I'm bailing out on my love for edge forward shaving devices, I got some help from another Hardware Expansion Sponsor for a piece from the other side of world in 'the Land of Sharp', to show up sometime in November. I won't say who, but Joseph knows who he is.

Out-Cash OCtober baby!

OCtober with the FAT

October 27

Razor -Fatip Piccolo
Blade - (1)
Soap - Stirling Sheep
Brush -Stirling Two Band Synthetic
Post - Alum

I skipped last night's shave due to just being tired. Yeah, even the Czar wears out. Yesterday was nothing but a cold rain and I worked nearly 10 hours in it so home was just a chance to crash and burn. So, after the sun came back out today and it warmed into the 70's I knew I'd feel up to catching up. Two days growth on the beard and a couple weeks on the head so time to deal with that too. I chose the Fatip Piccolo for this round with a fresh Sharp Star. Stirling Sheep for the lather made by the Stirling synthetic brush. Fantastic is the only word that comes to mind. That shave followed a pain stick head shave featuring the Kai Captain with the VDH Scented Luxury Soap and Boar Brush. No blood or any other problems with either shave and the day ended on nothing but positive! Great way to wind up a Sunday.

Up early for my monthly visit with the pain doc tomorrow, then a couple of meetings throughout the day and Monday will be in the books as well. Hope your week gets off to a fantastic start!!
