    Awesome shot, Jim! You’re getting that Assassin dialed in already, of course.
    Yup, looks like the Proraso Red started by James is a thing today. I’ll break mine. out later

    Great shave with the Rex.
    I don't own one but it's all pressure and angle.
    Nice set up too.

    An excellent shave! Very informative on the Gibbs, Jeff. I’ve heard about what needs to be modified before, but your pic makes it very easy to understand.

    Good man! Just remember to keep that finger dry, Joe!

    Thanks, Jim! :happy088:

    I do like my Fatip Grande.:D

    Wonderful shave! Really cool looking razor!

    I half expected it, to be honest. Something about the oils that are added to these soaps really bugs my skin. Palmolive was the one for me, and now they don't sell it anymore! :angry032:

    Beautiful shave! Congratulations on not having driven your wife to murder... Yet. :happy102:

    Yeah. They're class acts! :happy088:

    Congratulations Gary to you and your wife!
    A perfect shave for the occasion.
    Sad to hear your plans were cancelled.
    Save your pennies, when things open back up, you'll need 'em!

    Sounds like the meatgrinder was easily tamed, Terry. My problem was that it was one of the first safety razors I owned. Found a nice cased one here in town at a junk store. Once my technique improved, it was tamed, but man I had a weeperfest the first few shaves with it. It taught me what 'no pressure' really means.

    According to this source, Bill, menthol crystals have a relatively long shelf life and should be stored at room temperature. From what I've read, menthol triggers certain "receptors" in the skin to create the cooling response.
