January 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Wow. I just got a little sick reading that. So much for lunch.

 

SOTD January 24, 2020

Prep: Cold water and PAA Cube pre-shave soap
Blade: Feather
Razor: Gillette Fatboy
Brush: Omega 10049
Soap: Mitchell's Wool Fat
Post: Witch hazel, Fine American Blend aftershave

Fat Friday! Fresh Feather blade loaded into the Fatboy on 9. SMOOTH!! Terrific shave all around. Love The Fat's lather and it's always nice to finish with American Blend. Easy and comfortable all around.

Enjoy your day!

 

Apologize for the big multi-quote....still busy this week. Great shaves and posts!

 

I have a few ideas, but haven't committed to any yet.

A) Use The Fat on MWF for Fat February. I also have some MWF bath soap.
B) Pick one soap and use it exclusively for the month., except for Fridays.
C) Use two soaps throughout the month, except for Fridays.

I want to finish off some tubs this year and need to make some choices to facilitate that goal. Therefore I lean towards choices B and C to try and target some candidates. I'll always have The Fat.

 

Love the B&W photo Perry. I hope your week has been going well.

Thank you Perry.

 

Awesome Bay Rum shave, Terry! That 1909 is sweet, and I really like the looks of that brush as well. Great way to end the work week

 

That is a nice shave, Clint!

Fantastic shave, and post, Maestro! I agree that an open blade shave is all get out!

 

Nice shave, pic and post, Jim!

 

Fantastic shave, photos, and report, Jeff! I'm incredibly happy to hear you're up and about, and that the new razor is living up to its reputation. Looks like the makings of a fantastic Friday

 

Thanks Jim!

 

Wonderful shave and oh the colors, the pretty colors! Have a great day, Jim!

 

Awesome shave, Blair!

 

Thank you Joe.

 

Thanks Jeff. We're having so much fun that I'm concerned about the legality of it all. A different set of friends arrived yesterday. Shrimp is on the agenda for today, tomorrow, the next day.... My sister may even come down for a visit early next month. It's a blessing to have a place big enough for family and friends to join us.

I hope you are doing well, my friend!

 

Thank you for the kind words, Gentlemen!

 

I have given it some thought, Jim. I usually do a 'Favourites February' and this year I think I'm going to pick 6 favourite software combos with 6 fave razors (I shave 6 days a week) and use them once a week for the month. I was even thinking of trying to do six different brands of soap, as to not just rotate through SV or something similar, for example.

 

Fabulous Fat Friday shave, Perry!

 

Thank you, Clint. This week has gone by pretty quickly. Lots of things to do and I've been busy, but it's a good busy. More work now and less stress later.
