    Thanks Gary. The wife really likes the scent so it was a great selection. It was the first time using the Malbolge scented products as well as the Green Ray. I only used my Ascension razor a handful of times because I was very busy when I got it. It was like using all new products this shave and extra fun.

    February Favorites

    February 1

    Soap - Mitchell's Wool Fat
    Brush - I*V 10 The Moreau [​IMG]
    Post - Alum

    Alrighty then. 21 page start to February so far, eh? Not bad, not bad. Still waiting on the moderators to close down January to get a final tally. Suffice it to say we blew the record away again. Now it's February and time for some favorites! I decided to start with a nice setups of favorites for me and go "Fatty Fat February" to start. Got my Fatboy out, and my MWF out for starters. There's the "fat and fatty". Grabbed the hybrid boar/badger brush to make sure the Fat performed its absolute best, which it did. Used a fresh Sharp Star in the Fatboy and went after it. Three extremely smooth and effective passes to BBS with that great slick and cushy Mitchell's lather. The hybrid brush is such a great knot. You definitely feel the boar scritch right alongside the badger luxury feel. Great knot. Get you one! Hope your February started well for you. I'll catch up on some reading now! Have a great Super Bowl Sunday!!

    Many of you are aware they are living a rare event: today's date is a palindrome!
    I am sure this will make your day much better as it is a conversation piece too: we are a minority and songs will be written about this!
    So thrilled!

    And I proudly announce you the god forgotten place I'm living in is, from yesterday, official supplier of humidity to Pantanal!
    It is a satisfaction...

    Looking out of the window, this morning I thought it rained: wrong!

    But it seemed so, so I pleased myself with clothy fragrances.
    This shaving machine is fantastic and, in two passes, i am smooth as a mirror and smell like a textiles store!

    What more can I decently want?
