Have a great day all!

awesome shave and pic Jason..

Happy Friday all! Just a simply good shave on tap for today with the inclusion of Musgo Real Lavender SC, Dr Jon’s Flowers in the Dark and the iKon Standard (Tech).

Lovely two pass shave and smooth as can be. The iKon Standard or Tech really only has one purpose...to annihilate three or four days growth. It melts away stubble better than my Muhle R41 and that is saying a lot.

Happy Friday all!

You're right: you may get addicted...

Look at me and my window...

No shave today. Today is our 50th anniversary, or as I like to say half a century. I'm a lucky man.

Congratulations (and many more)

Karl.

This frameback hadn’t seen action in a long time. It needed a refresh and sat waiting for me. It was one of the ones I recently worked on and, like the Suzumasa, came up with an edge that felt great on the thumb - so I was looking forward to using it today. Success, a fabulous shave for sure.

Impressive Marine. Well done sir. You two choose wisely

Thank You!

Hope you feel better soon.

Sometimes I try to match my AS to my pain cream or pain patch. Salonpas has that strong menthol scent. I'm waiting for a company to come out with matching scents.

That would be great! I'm afraid I won't feel better until my next round of Euflexa (in a month), or when I get my knees replaced. I guess I could use Ben-Gay as an AS.

Thank you, Gary!

Thank you, Jeff!
