    Great shave report, Paul! Is there a Superlative Most Excellent on your scale?

    A band from my home town (city). I first heard Elephant Stone on FIFA. Then found their eponymous album and loved it. I also really like the work that John Squire did with The Seahorses.

    Great shave! I don't use my Tech much at all!

    Great shave! 28 shaves out of a blade?! :happy096:
    Cool shave, Angelo!

    Even though iKon Tech heads are available for $35 at the moment?

    Lovely R41 shave, Maestro! That is one good-looking scuttle.

    I find them very smooth in the Rex and not overly sharp. These are one of the only blades that give me a close and comfortable shave in this Razor. However, I find them kind of mediocre in the Rockwell 6S, so I guess it's a YMMV thing. I'm just glad I kept them around!

    Sorry about the shave, Terry. There are some razors that do belong in the trash. On the bright side if your SWMBO complains you’ll have an excuse to break out the big guns! How about a Gem Jr?

    I've just seen on YouTube that Mark of 'Friendship Shaving' is at home suffering from Coronavirus. I hope he pulls through!

    I’ll be real interested in what you think of the Voskhods when they arrive. They’re my goto for the Rex.

    You and me both! Sorry to hear about this, James. He’s in the endangered demographic like me. He seems like a warm, gentle soul. I hope he gets through it as well.

    Sorry to hear the shave didn’t go as planned. It’s easier for us retired codgers who have nothing but the shave to focus on.

    He certainly does appear a warm, gentle, mild-mannered gentleman.

    Tell me about it...just ordered the Stainless Steel Hawk V3 from IB. I saw they now have an OC version and that was that.
    At least I can justify supporting a small business :angelic007:.

    Did you buy? ;)
    I'm so tempted, but I want to really nail down the R41 first. I am going to swap the Fatip for the R41 for the blade trial and go from there. Then I'll grab the iKon Tech... See how I go!
