    Great post, pic and shave Jeff! I like the newer handle much more than the original. Make it a great day!

    Thanks Jim! When I get them, it's always in the same area while doing a fool's pass. I would think my skin would be tougher at this point.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    I see one guy on the Bay trying to sell individual tucks. I'll have to do some checking with a couple of Russians I normally bought them from to see if they have finally emptied the warehouse over there. But, one benefit of the Cartel is the fact that the "inner circle" did indeed stock up once the quality of these blades was discovered. You are quite correct about that!

    There may be imposters and posers in other forums, but there's only one "us". Word.

    I agree, and thanks, Joe. The old handle could get slippery, the knurling and design provide a much more secure grip with the new one.

    Great Shake Sharp shave, Joe! I have a goatee, and have had it for so long I can’t remember when I last shaved my lip. Sorry about the weepers. It happens, even to the Sensei! Have a great day, my friend!

    Love that orange theme! Great shave, Jim! You can never beat a Vector shave, especially with a Feather Super loaded! Have a great day!

    IMG_4789.jpg 3rd day with the new V3. Very good results after 3 passes and I'm quite smooth. 'Tis a keeper for sure.
    The jury is still out on this brush. It either still needs some more breaking in on the boar parts, or the badger parts aren't soft enough to compensate. I've probably only got about 12-15 shaves on it, but I'd like to see it soften up.
    Went with this Maol splash for Blair's Fougere week. It is billed as a Fougere, but I wouldn't call it a classic Fougere by any means. Much more of a citrus vibe with the Grapefruit seed oil. A quality product, nonetheless.

    Have a great day all!

    If you find one, let me know. Tools are currently trumping technique. I should not disappoint with a MAYhem haircut, though. :)
    Thanks Clint! Likewise, I hope you and your family are staying safe.
    Awesome, my friend. Good to hear from you. I hope all is well and tacos are being served up routinely.
