    Very nice setup Tom!!
    Gary, you're pics lately are blowing me away. Incredible!!

    Nice to see the Williams getting some love Joseph. I have some vintage and find it to be a great soap. Nothing fancy but very effective.

    Probably the bad blade, however I've had "no weeper" shaves with the same type(Gillette Sensor Deuce Pivot +). They always happen around the same place though, so there MIGHT be a technique issue.

    Gyms opened back up today. Crazy to think how out of shape you can be without working out in a month. D61E1705-C464-4D83-BC7A-A65779F0D07A.jpeg

    Thank you, Patrick!
    I did get the email. As of now I'm saying that I'll get in on the pre-order. What I'm really up in the air about is which one. Kinda leaning towards the Gen 2 SB.
    What are your thoughts?

    I received it! It was one of the first modern artisan designs. How will it compare to current offerings? Blackland builds great razors, but he said he’s maintaining the original specs! I may order, but probably won’t. I already have so many excellent shavers! I’ll probably wait for the Wolfman!

    Just be careful, Myles! Not everyone’s convinced that it’s the right time to open things up!

    Razor: Gillette Old Type
    Blade: Feather Hi Stainless (2)
    Brush: Simpson X3 Best Badger
    PS: Proraso Red
    SS: MWF
    AS: Old Spice

    Normally I would use a Fatboy on Friday but I got a plating session in and plated my first old type. Not the first OT I have plated, but the first for my collection. With Mayhem just around the corner my chances to use new razors will be limited.

    I worked the feather just a little too hard and gave myself some irritation on my cheeks. Probably should stay away from using a feather in a razor I am not familiar with.
