    I enjoyed your entertaining report, as usual. Lovely pic! I’ve started using Feather Supers in my AC SE razors, and find them awesome shavers. I have three AC razors, and have used the Supers in two with great results. I used to think Schick Prolines were great compared to garden variety Feather AC blades. No more! I plan on trying a Super in my RR Hawk in the near future.

    Great shave Jason! Keep your great razors unless you want a high end one. In that scenario, you have my permission to sell off a few to subsidize that new upgrade.

    Wells Fargo had a good rep, but alas, their shady practices has bitten them where the sun doesn't shine.

    Gary, I thought I’d never be able to experience the close shaves all the straight blade forward shavers on the forum do because of my Parkinson’s. I think I’ve found the solution. The last four AC shaves have been just as close as the Barber shaves I’ve had locally pre-Covid19. Do you have any SE razors, or any interest in trying them?

    Love the B&W photo Jason. Evans handle looks fantastic with the Fan knot.

    Thanks Jeff! It's my Slim Adjustable that I purchased from Razor Emporium a year and a half ago.

    It’s just unfair that they’re screwing their small business customers.

    The rules for the PPA kept changing all through Friday and over the weekend. I am not sure the rules are final yet. Honestly the whole thing is one big mess.

    Ah, I guess I confused your adjustables. Thanks for the clarification.

    Stunning pic, Jim. Always love the look and functionality of that bowl. That handle is pretty interesting. At first glance, I wonder if some of the best balance point grips might be right where it narrows.
    The Midnight Stag sounds like something that would be polarizing for sure. Glad you like it.

    Very nice, Clint. If you ever get in a 'ranking' mood, I'd like to hear your preferences between your high end Synths- Simpson (both) , Shavemac, Thayers and Evo as I think you may be the only one on here who as all 5.

    Very nice shave, Joe! Stirling's Bay Rum is one of my favorite scents.

    I’m a bit biased, but we have a relatively substantial payroll to manage, and six to eight weeks of no income doesn’t help! Banks will only lend to existing customers, which puts many Wells small business customers in the toilet!!

    Terrific shave and report, Jeff! I forget how sleek the Vector is until someone posts comparison pics.
    Thanks, Charlie! I appreciate the offer and I'll keep you in mind.
