November 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Excellent shaves, gents.

I'm not sure if i have the patience to wait for tomorrow to shave. I'll try to resist, but i'm not sure if i can.

 

You can flip in Boston for that category.(+ surrounding towns).

 

I'm glad I signed on with Sir Hare. They opened the same year as Stoylin, but the difference is Doc Ezlovan has more products out. I hope Sir Hare can soon pull a Doc Ezlovan.

 

Awesome shave, Terry!

 

Thanks, Daniel!

 

Very nice, Jim!

 

Thank you, Joe!

 

Actually, I need to correct that. It says they opened "about 3 years ago". thus they came after Stoylin.

MWF~~Rubberset~~Dovo 91~~Small Batch Shave Tonic
Missed yesterday's shave, so with a full 48hrs growth, I went forth with the Sunday Shaver by Dovo.
15 laps on the CrOx Linen, 40 laps on the SRP 3" Leather, followed by 10 laps on the 2" Savin.
From the sideburns straight down to the chin, stretching the skin, DFS.
That's the standard, from what I have read over the past 10 months since going over to the Dark Side.
This edge is so sharp, that a simple false "touching" of my cheek left a mark.
The regular players all performed well. No balkers, no hooky-players.
My solitary boar knot is about as soft and broken-in as one could hope for.
For the curious, there is an ever-widening ring at the bottom of the bowl.
It moves at a snail's pace. Meanwhile, my shave shelf is gathering dust and making
"goo-goo" eyes at me. "Oh, why hast thou abandoned us, Master Primo?"
I scoff and, with no sympathy, continue on my path to shave-enlightenment.​

 

That's a nice shave, pic and post, Joseph!

 

Great shave and beautiful razor, Joseph!

 

Great shave and photo Terry. Glad you found another blade that works for you.

Love the B&W photo Jim. I hope your thumb is improving.

Gorgeous Sunday shaver Joseph. As usual an excellent shave report.

I sent my wife and girls a link to the Small Batch Shave Tonic as a gift suggestion with the note that please don't buy shaving soaps.

 

Excellent shave with a Yaqi Grace Razor I received on a passaround on another board. Razor shave was smooth and moderately efficient. I have it for a few more days. I like the scalloped head and open comb. I’m going to skip a shave tomorrow and see what it’s like with a heavier growth of whiskers.

My thumb is improving quickly. What got a "wow" from the nurse at work when she first saw it doesn't look like much more than a scrape now.

 

Great looking shave, Jeff!

 

Excellent shave and photo and post, Joseph! You'll be back to all your brilliant software soon enough.
