  1. Great shave report, Neal! Lovely pic! RR razors are great, I own three (SS Lupo, and two hawks), but have heard little about the Wunderbar. I know they like to model and improve the designs of existing razors. Is the Wunderbar a new design or is it based on an existing one? Enjoy your shaves!
  2. Thank you, Joe!

  3. Thanks, Myles, but the cookie would have to be too big to accommodate all my candles! :D

  7. lol, that is easy, just take the 7 away and leave the other number. Or we could flip the 7 and put it behind the second number :)
  8. Happy birthday to Mrs. Jeff and happy early birthday to you! Wonderful shave. You certainly have a varied and deep razor collection.

  14. What a great shave report, Jim! I shaved with that razor for 50 yrs. I never achieved a BBS. I’ll have to try it with a Feather blade!

  15. Lovely shave, Perry! The Hawk is a great razor. I love Prolines. They’re my favorite AC blade.

  16. Great shave report, Jim! I guess the RR German 37 is the bargain basement version of the Wunderbar.

  17. Thank you, Jeff! The Hawk with a Proline is a wonderful combination, I agree!

  18. Sorry to hear about the rough shave, Clint! Sounds like one of my Rex shaves. The head on mine was apparently misaligned. Don’t know if I buy it, but it gets one more try on its return. If it sliced and dices me again, it’s gone!

    Gillette Red Tip w PermaSharp
    Saponificio Varesino Felce Aromatica

    February Favourites combo #2. My thoughts on the Felce are obviously well-documented. My favourite scent in a great base. Went with a fave TTO. Could easily rotate through a bunch of NEW OCs for faves, but do want some variety. Either this or the Brit ‘Crat Jr would qualify a a fave Gillette TTO. The brush is a fave for the handle mainly. Very comfortable, and I was always very happy with how it turned out. I also enjoy the flattop, probably more than others on here seem to.
    Had a 2 pass shave this morning, mainly as I didn’t feel like a 3rd. Under the weather. Shaved, set up some stuff for work and have gone back to bed. Was closer with 2 passes on the weekend with the MonoBilt than I am this morning, but the Cooper’s awesomeness is well-documented pour moi.
    Have a great day all.

  20. A lot of guys use dice! I never shave more than twice on any DE blade. I know if a blade is in a razor, it’s the second shave. I clean and dry every razor after use, so it’s an easy system to maintain.
