    Good Tuesday morning to everyone!
    The morning shave was much like yesterday, only a different blade.
    Jeff @jgreenepa sugested a Schick blade, can't let that go by me. So kept all my goodies from the Monday shave and hunted out those blades.
    How was it, well pretty darn nice.
    I have to say theses blades have a resistance when going over the face. Nothing bad, but the first pass has a noticeable drag. While the Feathers glide over the face like you forgot to put a blade in the razor, these aren't quite there. The shave is just a bit off, most probably couldn't tell. Some spots that the feather smoothed out like a good coating of wax, these didn't quite get there.
    Don't get me wrong! This was a shave you would like to have on your wedding day, the feathers are just a hint smoother.
    If I had to rate them the feather pro as a 10, the schicks would come in at 9.8.
    2 passed and a cleanup and I'm feeling great, head and face!

    I know, I know... some are saying how do you tell that small of a difference???
    All I can say is your more than welcome to duke it out with my whiskers, any time. I've been fighting them for almost 40 years. ;)

    All
    Enjoy!

    Good morning, all! DSC_0828.JPG
    Another good shave, no problems at all.

    It's been snowing all night, @Douglas Carey, did you make it happen? :D

    Have a great day!

    Beautiful shaves Keith. I really like the unobtainable theme. The MKII Nassau is a very rare watch indeed. Congrats on getting one.

    Gorgeous picture Jim. The Envoy has some serious knurling on the handle.

    Great shave and report, Terry!
    Feather Professionals edge out the Schick Proline P30's in my book too.
    Lovely shot, Daniel! Enjoy the snow!

    Thank you, Clint!
    As far as knurling, the Ambassador and Envoy have no equal in my den.
