    I have some Reserve soaps that are over two years old. I'll have to give them a go to see if the performance has dropped. I was thinking B&M as part of my March focus.

    You keep a drawer of so-so soaps? For some reason, I'm surprised by that, Keith. A great looking combo, regardless.
    Did you leave the spine on that one today, Terry?
    I've never smelled Aramis either, Jim. A great looking razor and brush for sure!
    That is just an awesome looking razor, Jeff. What great condition it is in, especially with the box and accessories. I'm jealous on that one!
    Very nice, Clint. In your opinion, are the loose Thater synth knots worth it?
    Sounds like a great start to the day, Perry. One pass with the Hawk? You, sir, have arrived.
    Just an all-around classy, sophisticated looking set up, Maestro.
    Great looking Senator, Gary! Love your OC collection, that's for sure.

    Hope everyone had a great weekend. I'm still catching up on Sunday's posts, but figured I'd post Monday's shave now:
    • Razor: Gillette Flare Tip
    • Brush: Kong
    • Soap: Soap Commander "Drive"
    • Menthol: Frost Drops (one drop to lather per pass)
    • AS: AV Blue Ice
    • Balm: Glacial Unscented

    A very nice 3 pass shave. BBS, but with slight irritation around the lower jaw and corners of the mouth. As Paul would say it: an "almost excellent" shave ;)

    In preparation for February's 30DC, I'm going to revert to the 2 1/10 pass shave (touch ups around corners of the mouth and lips only). I need an irritation-free blank slate to start with, and I need to practice settling with the results of the 2 1/10 pass shave after so many wonderful BBS shaves over the last couple weeks. I am simultaneously looking forward to and dreading the upcoming 30DC--it will be a time of great comfort and loss.

    Enjoy your Monday, folks! :)

    Thank you, Gentlemen. I think I'll give this soap another go later in the week.
