    Sounds like a nice shave...hadn't tried the Boss Bottled. Hm....

    Very cool Joseph! Nice image and setup.

    Purdy! Great shave Jim! That's a very neat color combo on the Karve. New Evo Omega, nice! (yeah....been looking).

    Incredibly great shave on this 22nd day of Decadent December. Up early to prepare for the arrival of our Christmas/New Year’s guests. The MMOC really plowed through the whiskers on my favorite MWF lather. I would shave every day with this soap, but still need to work through my other soaps none of which in my estimation can hold a candle to the Fat, and that includes the two pucks of that fancy French MDC stuff the bride bought me for Christmas. In any case, beautiful, smoooth BBS of both noggin and face. I feel clean and refreshed!

    RAZOR: Gem Micromatic OC
    BLADE: Pella SS PTFE
    PREP: Cold water rinse of face and dome followed by PAA’s Charcoal-Menthol Cube Preshave Soap
    BRUSH: Viking Silvertip Badger
    SOAP: Mitchell’s Wool Fat
    POSTSHAVE: Cold water wash with brush squeezings followed by Thayers Lavender WH and finished with PAA’s Unscented Cooling Mysterium Serum

    Thanks, Gary!
    Thank you, Blair!
    I have never been big on synthetic brushes in the past but have really come to appreciate them over the last few months. I actually think of them as equals in my brush rotation. The Evo feels much more like a badger than any of my other synthetics. I'm very pleased with the purchase.

    Marvelous shave and great stuff, Jeff! Thanks, I just remembered that I have to shave my head. I have let it gone longer than I usually do. I am almost tempted to use my shavette, but I will use my Model T.

    Yup, a fourth pass just for the sheer pleasure of it. I added an XTG in the opposite direction that I'm sure didn't remove a single whisker but I enjoyed it.

    I have to say that my synthetic brushes are easier to use then my other brushes. If I am short for time, then I prefer to use them because they whip up lather very easily.

    The Rockwell Model T initially had some early development glitches around delivery timing and quality, but lately all I’ve read are glowing reviews! Enjoy your head shave! I get to stay home from church today and wrap presents and prepare for our guests! I wish you a very happy holiday season!
