November 2019 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Thanks, Perry! That new Cryogen AS was a gift from my son! What a wiseass, when he gave it to me, he said, “You’ll like it, Pop; make sure you use a healthy amount!”

 

Thanks, Clint! Almost didn’t recover from the AS though.

 

Outstanding Red Tip!

 

Jim:
In all my 72 years, I’ve never experienced such an incredible amount of menthol! It literally stunned me!

 

With the final week of November coming up, I would say you could ALMOST project No Theme as the survey winner, with a lead of 10 over No Repeat. but I'll wait a few days to see if there is ballot-stuffing happening for the latter. Stalker and Ice Cream are tied at 25, 17 back of No Theme.

 

I'm running out of adjectives Jim. Another incredible image today with the lens aspect and colors. Great setup....trying to resist the new B&M Fougères (cause it's on the Christmas list).

Nice RWB color scheme Mark! Cool setup.

 

Thank you, Joe!

Love it! Definitely on my shopping list for next Friday.

 

You are much too kind, Blair! Thank you!

 

NOvember

Eufros~~Simpson~~Cooper~~Polsilver
Last shave with the Cooper. It's on a BST thread.
I would respectfully ask to be released from the Cooper Society...or whatever the name is.
New soap, brush and post shave products today.
The Kasbah has a lovely, spicy scent, which opens up nicely when lathering.
Eufros soap gets a beautiful sheen and is quite slick.
Using a badger brush was a nice change as well. Even though the Rubberset knot has become quite soft,
nothing, but nothing approaches a quality badger knot, and this Simpson Super Badger
ranks as one of my nicest.
The Kasbah ASB even got the SSOA...new acronym (Son Seal of Approval) copyright pending.​

 

Great-looking razor, Clint! They say it was supposed to be a mild shaver, which is why I stayed away. Hmm worth thinking about!

 

Joe:
What was it about the razor that didn’t sit well for you? I’ve got one coming, and I’ve learned over the last few months to respect your views!

 

I was a bit taken aback not seeing the Fat in your photo. Going to take some getting used to.
Sorry the Monobilt didn't work out for you.

 

Thank you, Blair!

 

Thank you, Clint! It sure is!

 

Jim:
Always like your pictures! You could have had a career as a marketing photographer!

 

It's a little over 1 1/2 hrs., and the clove scent from the TSD Bay Rum Splash has finally worn off. It came on stronger than Stephan(from yesterday and Wednesday). However, with each one there is no argument with the fact that I get a SOFT FRESH sensation.

 

Terrific shave, Jeff! I saw a video rating mentholated soaps from mild to ultra cool and Cryogen soap was the strongest. The tester really was feeling it.

 

Not familiar with that particular razor, Mark! Head is clearly a Blackbird, but do it recognize the handle. When was it made?

 

Thank you so much, Jeff!

 

Glad to see you’re really enjoying that well-honed straight!
