    Great shave, Evan! The Rex Ambassador is one of the finest razors!

    Here's hoping the pinky heals quickly Joe! Nice combination for a Favorites Friday shave.

    James, excellent shave-! Proraso is a tried and true product that has never disappointed me.

    Thank Jim! And no, I actually had a shave least night with my Rex Ambassador and Arko. It was pretty darn good.

    I tried the Proraso white bowl back when I first started out - I didn't get the best out of it. Trying a cream today certainly did not disappoint!

    That's too bad about the reaction to those soaps, Joseph! I don't believe it is the sodiam and potassium hydroxides that is causing your reaction because these are common ingredients in most soaps. Check your soaps that you haven't had a problem and if the hydroxides are present, then you know they are not the culprits. Thus, I would say it is the slippery elm bark extract is the villain.

    Dan, that's a good shave! I own the 6C and the Model T. Although you feel the blade, the razor's geometry makes it difficult to cut yourself. I can't speak for the RA but every owner seems to do well once it is dialed in. I am sure you will get there.

    Thanks James! It's a bad one and it looked like I needed stitches, but I am still here because I didn't bleed out. I will just keep the doubled up bandaids on it and hope for the best.
