    Aftershave: Fine American Blend.

    I'm very happy with this shave today. As a result of not shaving everyday this is my last OC October shave. Everything worked perfectly. It's great to use something that is older than I am and is in better shape than me. :happy102: I did take my some time to learn how to effectively use the Manchurian knot, now I find it to be a great performer. It was never the brush it was me.

    Thanks, Gary!

    I remembered you talking about that a while back. I think it was in reference to Proraso and how you didn't care to use it any longer due to the residue.
