Love the photo Gary. You are really embracing the outdoor photos.

 

thank you Clint.i am limited on the roof due to neighbors windows but have more plans in future..

 

Thank you, Jeff! The Omega Evo is a great brush. I need to work it into the rotation more often.

Wonderful snowy picture, Gary!

 

thank you Jim..

Salsa Bowl
Mike’s Natural Soaps – Wild Honeysuckle
Hero Safety Razor
Gem Stainless Steel Blade
Clubman Classic

Picked this Hero single edge razor up last month and finally decided to break it out this morning. It appears to be a rebranded Kampfe Star Cru-Steel razor.. It is a nice shaver and get the job done. No nicks or weepers this morning. The Mike’ Natural Soap is great stuff.

Y'all take care and have a great day.

 

Great shave and cool razor, Danny!

 

Thanks, Clint!

 

cool shave and pic Danny..

 

The Jeeves Tobacco Bay splash coupled with Stirling Gentlemen is an all-time favourite. I'll have to break that out for 'Favourites February'. Had to ditch the balm, but still have the soap. Hopefully, the splash is strong enough to cover the fantastic Gentleman scent from discerning nostrils...

 

Personally, I think every splash should be in a glass bottle!

 

maybe aqua velva and clubman come in plastic due to old age home restrictions..

 

Terry, I think @BaylorGator needs to create a new category in the Shavey Awards- 'Scariest looking shave with something that is actually intended to be shaved with'. I nominate you.

I really like the looks of those new Omega Evo synthetics. They appear to be a quality knot. I like the handles too, but I'd bash the knot out if I got it. I know it makes no sense, but it is kind of my thing to do... the only one I ever kept was the Simpson Chubby I used today.

I really like the look of that elongated Hive everytime you show it, Joseph. The splash sounds like a winner as well.

Reading between the lines, Clint, it appears you have a preference for the Enoch over the Hiram. I'll meet you in Sandpoint, Idaho for a tour of the facility.

Awesome pic, Perry. Love that early Schick, too.

I like that open scalloped plate on the Occam's as well, Jeff. I revisited the safety bar plate and got really good results from it, too. I'll spend a few more days with the middle plate next week, but as of right now, I think I prefer the other two a hair more.

A rushed shave with a Shavette? Only one small weeper? You, Joe, have arrived.

What a great photo, Gary. What makes your Thayers 'twisted'?

Congrats on the Hero, Danny. While I don't have many Gem/EverReady style razors, I think some of them are exceptionally cool looking and that one definitely is.

 

Wonderful shaves, Joe, Gary and Danny!

 

Thank you, Jason!

 

It's a little different than the E and higher lettered Schicks. I'm not sure I've got it dialed in as well the others, but a short focus could likely get me there.

 

Gary, Clubman comes in plastic for several key reasons:
1. It would double the price to be in glass
2. Plastic is actually listed in the scent description
3. It is less likely to break when wives throw it out the bathroom window
4. The main target clients are less likely to try mistake it for something else and drink it

 

thank you Jason.i add a little glycerin and menthol crystals to thayers original astringent..awesome stuff..i use this when i use colognes/edt instead of aftershaves.

 

Thank you, Gentlemen. Clint- No kidding this soap won't die. I think one more shave, but can't guarantee it...

 

.nailed it..
