    I just put regular blades in it.
    I have no issues of blades not fitting.

    When I first received my Rex I did a 30 day focus with it. A favorite in the rotation.
    Wonderful shave, Terry!
    I have never found the need to modify any of the blades I've used in my Monobilt.

    The shave yesterday was good enough that I should have skipped a day. A new Streamline in the mailbox yesterday dictated otherwise. Nice 2 pass shave. The only unfortunate thing was that I was just getting to the autopilot with the ClogPruf again where muscle memory was really dialed in for good shaves. Also it ruined my 30 days of the same gear. Oh well.

    Prep: Cold water and PAA Cube pre-shave soap
    Blade: Gillette Spoiler
    Razor: Gillette Fatboy
    Brush: Omega 10049 boar
    Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave

    Effortless Fat Friday shave. Easy lather, smooth reduction from the Fatboy on 9, and a classic finish with American Blend. These shaves are always terrific.

    Busy and long day ahead. We're doing the school musical - The Addams Family - three times today. We'll perform this morning and early afternoon for different school ages and then open to the public tonight at 7:00. Then two shows tomorrow at 2:00 and 7:00 and it'll be over. Conducting a live musical with so many different elements is very challenging.

    Enjoy your day!

    I could try something along those lines, but I’m always drawn to use different razors every day. I’ll get there eventually.

    When I first joined the 30DC I was pretty good about rules and focuses. My morning shaves are the better for it. Now I'm much like you. I enjoy the variety. I like sticking with a razor for three shaves. No Repeat November has been fun so far but I'll be happy to return to my usual routine.

    Brush: Heritage C-MON
    Pre-shave: Stirling Mentholated
    Soap: B&M Reserve Fern

    Wonderful shave to start the day! Birth year and quarter Flare Tip along with the terrific scent and performance of the Reserve Fern provided three passes for near BBS and silent alum.

    jtspartan appropriately stimulated, via Netflix

    Looked it up- Tom Ford’s Gray Vetiver. I think that is what Fine’s Fresh Vetiver is based on as well, iinm.
