    Just awesome, Jim. Congrats on the new razor! I might like Midnight Stag as I rock Aramis quite a bit and like the strong leathery scent. I can't get my eye off your shave bowl, though. Super cool. If you encounter storage problems, please send it to my den for off-site storage.

    You'll have to pass the Kathy test for that Midnight Stag. Although I suppose if she liked Aramis, perhaps she'll go for MS. I think I'll buy that one again(Stag), but it would have to be in the late fall or winter. You know me-the TSD Yippy Dippy Weather Freak.

    Joe, what do you do when you have too many great razors? The General and the Vector just deliver the best shaves of my life with those Feather Super blades. AC razors just rock! I do like my DEs, but these razors are in a class by themself. One step away from blade forward shaving, although I couldn’t imagine a closer shave!

    IMG_4756.jpg Pulled out my last remaining adjustable as a nod to the April focus. Truth be told, I've tried to sell this razor a few times, but am thinking I'll probably end up keeping it. Had a same year short handled version as well, but gave it to a buddy along with a brush for his 50th last year. They are birth year shavers for the both of us.
    Whipped up an exceptional lather. Love everything about this soap, and @MrEE 's handle provided the artistic flair. 3 passes later and I'm close to being smooth. Not perfect on my neck, but not too far off. Smelled fantastic for the daily commute from the bathroom to the upstairs office...
    Have a great day all.

    Thanks, Clint! I’m in a bit of a quandary! These two razors with the Feather Super blades provided the closest shave of my life. They may have spoiled things for me. Other razors now seem a pale shadow compared.

    Wells Fargo has dropped the ball. My wife’s IT company (She’s CEO) has 40 employees. Wells claims they can’t help! That’s the bank with her credit line!!! She’s losing out because of the crooked sales scheme Wells engaged in. Time to change banks!

    My problem now, Tim, is whether I should dump all my other razors, or just be content with subpar shaves with them! Yeesh!

    Great Fatboy shave, Joe. Is that the razor with the problematic door, or am I confusing you with someone else? Not unusual for those of us residing in codgerland. Nothing like a BBS!
