SOS: January 2020

Good looking shave.

 

Thank you Doug!

 

Thanks Douglas.. It was verrry nice indeed. It has set me up very well for the rest of the day. I always think a good shave in the morning is a good foundation for what is to follow!

 

Thanks, Marine!

 

Thanks, Tim. If you take your time, you can find a new one or even "like-new" one for a deeply discounted price. In the world of SS razors, the AS-D2 is not only one of the best, but one of the most affordable.

Excellent shave today. Very close and comfortable. The WSP tobacco scent is darker than the US, so I'll keep looking for a good pairing in my den.
