  5. So I got this nice little green tee cup I started using for brush soaking and lathering. Seems to be pretty good, but it is a little bit shallow, so not the greatest for lathering but still works fine.
    Holds heat pretty well also! IMG_20200128_194055.jpg
  6. Another great shave, Joe! Glad that Parker is working out :)

  8. That's a beautiful photo and shave report, Blair. I was right in line with the scent description as well... then you said 'powdery.' You're right, it doesn't seem like it matches. Still, if Wifey and the fam approve, it's at least a partial win, no? ;)

  9. I had just bought a Timex weekender 40mm on sale last month and a Nato strap with a gift card I received for Christmas .
    Then I seen the Bulova ...I had to have it! 20200106_131555.jpg

  10. Great shaves, Tom! Permafrost and Polar Ice... dunno exactly what it is, but it sounds niiiiice! :D

  11. Really liking the looks of Courage and Respect. Leaning towards Respect at the moment simply because the citrus would round out what is otherwise a pretty woody/smokey rotation for me. Got quite a ways to go with Drive (which I would have no problem using daily), though. Great stuff, that SC :D

  12. The "Daaaaaddyyyyyyyy!" squeal is one of my favorite parts of the day.

  13. Awesome shave, photo, and razor, Jeff. Glad the birthday shave went so well, and that you son was able to score such a nice watch without us having to endure the loss of your good self ;)

  15. Thank you, Jeff! The Karve is a nice, smooth shaver. There are a lot worse razors a guy could have than this one.

  16. Good to know. I'll file that away in the surprisingly large 'just-how-many-versions-of-AV-Blue-are-there-anyhow' folder :rofl:

    All kidding aside, I'll probably give that one a whirl when next I go back to AV.

  17. You know, I just tried to log into Ebay for the first time in a long time and found out someone had hacked my account and taken it over. They didn't do anything, but it is a bit worrisome.

  19. Kicking off my 30 day "rule" tonight. This is a copy from 2 years ago. Everything will remain the same other that I will switch up aftershaves . Heres the setup. Wish me luck!
