  1. Thanks, Charlie!
    I have resisted buying a Simpson brush for awhile. The Omega Evo synthetic piqued my curiosity about higher end synthetics.
  2. Agreed. It's very important to appropriately stimulate the soap puck with the brush.

  3. No I am good on shaving supplies. As you know, I did buy that Citizen dive watch.
  4. awesome..now we are a club..:)

  6. If anyone knows anything about boiling please answer this for me. I've been looking at razor emporium about boiling for cleaning. My question is, is it safe to boil a Gillette super speed without damaging the paint, or nickel finish. They recommend adding a little bit of baking soda. IMG_20200113_180326.jpg
  7. Excellent shave, post and pic, Clint! Looking forward to your continued shaves with the Rex Ambassador.
  8. Glad that you got hot water and that you're not in hot water with the IRS.
  9. i have never tried it.i would use some cation.at least suspend it in the water,not sitting in the bottom of the pot/pan..research thoroughly first.once they are cooked it's junk.

  15. Wait, you guys file taxes?!? Apparently you don’t get your tax advice from the same internet blogs that I do.
  16. @BaylorGator . Randy , could I please have my net back now that you're done with it?

    Again..congrats @jtspartan .
  17. Nice image and great looking brush Clint! Love the RA, mine is turning into a top favorite modern DE.

    Cool image of the gear Jim! PAA Gondolier and Stirling's Baker Street, haven't ever put those two side by side (have both currently), nor used either within a week of each other. They are definitely in the same house for fragrance. I get a bit more lime/lemon (a slight slight sour citrus) though out of my version of Baker Street, could be batch to batch differences. Gondolier to this nose has a more common daily cologne feel. Both are ones in rotation, and have great longevity.

    Love the Cooper and brush Jason. Neat perspective with the image too!
  18. Thanks Jim!
