    Thank you, Obi-Wan....:yoda
    Thanks, James. I only have one "Reserve base" B&M, Lavender. Honestly, the glissant base is better.

    Ah, the scent doesn't last for more than a couple of minutes. My favorite Thayers is Lavender.
    I always follow up with a moisturizer. My job usually has me outdoors in all weather conditions. I'm hoping that I am slowing down the aging process a little.

    If I remember correctly the Reserve base was formulated to lather in hard water. The Glissant base is top tier in my opinion.

    Thanks, Jim! :)
    Appreciate the kind words, Clint :)
    I'm afraid it's looking that way. Out of curiosity, do you find that you get desensitized to it after a while, and keep needing to up the cool after a while? I'm hoping that's not the case. I can see myself pawning the silverware just to find my next menthol fix; I don't like that image. For now though, everything's good--I can quit any time ;)

    Nope. Catching up not nearly as important as supporting your better half. Again, prayers for you all.

    Never shaved yet today .....cause I was doing this engine/ body swap. Cutting yourself shaving hurts . Cutting yourself doing mechanic work is just all part of it .

    Tuesday Shave: I decided to touch up my Snail Forge razor on a Shapton Glass 16k, it did not need a touch up I was just curious how it would take to the stone which is my go to finisher. The edge was very sharp and very smooth, it looks like a good match. I could not capture the Wootz steel pattern in the picture so I changed it to black and white.

    Happy the warm lather worked for you.

    Doing that in the cold does not look like fun.

    Very nice setup Keith!

    Was a case of ot had to be done and it was sort of mild while the sun was out. I'm used to working outside anyway.
    I either deal with it or turn in my Canadian man-card Clint. Shes up and running again ready for next storm.
