    Masterful shave, Joe, as usual! You have been an incredible teacher, coach, mentor, and cheerleader to the Jedi's-in-training this month.

    I extend my prayers for health and safety, for both you and your fellow New Yorkers.

    Thank you, Jim. All is going well here. My motivation for shaving just isn't there lately. Working from home, I roll out of bed, get the coffee make going and start working. I don't shower until sometime in the afternoon, and shaving late in the day doesn't fit my routine. I only shave the days I get out bed and shower first thing in the morning.

    How's the refinery getting along up there? This lack of fuel consumption is getting to be rough. I also saw you were feeling a bit under the weather. Everything OK?

    Nice summary, Gary. Your vintage gear is flat out cool, and you're my go to guy if I have a question.

    May all your 'stangs be fast and flamed. ;)

    Thanks Gary. I'll work off some other stuff first and then look into picking up the Cologne or EdT. I appreciate it.

    Blade Trial - Shave #1
    Blade - Rapira Platinum Lux
    Razor - Fatip Grande
    Brush - Yaqi Tuxedo
    Soap - TOBS Peppermint
    Post - Proraso Green Balm

    First blade up was the Rapira Platinum Lux. I went for a new approach today (and I won't be using it again) - WTG and XTG both ways. This left me needing more than a little cleanup and basically a 4th pass. This resulted in more irritation than usual and dozens of tiny weepers on my neck and jawline. These weepers were history after a shower and the balm. I didn't feel any problems with the blade during the shave - it was sharp and smooth. The post shave feel is also fantastic!

    I'll give this blade a 7.5/10 for sharpness and comfort.

    I will revisit blades that score more than 6/10 in my tests. Next blade up is the Gillette 7 o'clock Super Platinum (Blacks).

    They are getting better, that's a fact. It's all about "brush control" for me.
