    Nice fat Friday shave Evan! 7 hour meetings never fun, no matter most any subject.

    Nice looking razor Perry! Sounds like today will be busy, but fun!

    Oh, man....can’t unsee that.

    That is very nice Clint. The brush and the packaging. I love artisans, and sellers in general, who put thought (or at least some) effort into package/shipping presentation. Doesn't have to be overkill.

    Good Saturday morning everyone!
    Hope your day and weekend turns out great!
    Got out my PAA Starling SE razor that uses a GEM blade, I modified for my style of shaving. I added epoxy and rounded off the cap so to ride the cap without the flat cap sticking to the skin.
    Some WoolFat, an Omega badger brush, a new Personna GEM blade and a selection of liquids and creams.

    2 passes head and face with some touch up, no issues. A good razor, not a brush hog, but still a contender for a top spot in my den. Now to clean then disassemble it so it can dry properly.
    I find razors made of aluminum almost require this, for thread longevity. I do this to all my razors that come apart anyway.

    Next month, it will be 2 years wet shaving, seems a lot longer than that.
    Started TSD around that June, that's when things really started to work for me.
    Reading the things you guys post is a great help.
    I was using Merkur 23c with Shark blades. I thought that was a monster razor, then, little did I know. My Parker 99 got me going in the right direction. Now I'm as shave crazy as most here, relishing the rabbit hole, every time I go to buy somthing now.
    So, thanks everyone!
