    Wow. E Plate OC, you're the man. The Patina on the Karve is looking good.

    Glad to hear you made it smoothly, Charlie. Sounds like a fine travel set up as well.

    Wonderfully color coordinated shave, Jason!
    I don't think I've tried Merkur blades and it doesn't sound like I want to.
    Thank you, Patrick!

    Looking good Jim. The razor looks fantastic. How is the Mahogany?

    Great shave Jason! It's nice to see someone else use an off-season soap.

    Wonderful photo Jason. I tried the Merkur blades onetime and that was more than enough.

    A struggle? Only if you resist...
    I’ll leave this one alone. No sweating in Aisle 12, Paul!
    Love the patina on that Karve, Mark. Is the E plate OC a very aggressive feel?
    Just awesome, Joseph. Such an iconic splash- so many fans and dupes. I wonder why it was discontinued in the first place. Wasn’t it always popular?
    The brush looks great from the bottom as well, Jim! Superb browns in the pic.

    I like Mahogany a lot and will definitely consider a full sized purchase.

    Another gorgeous, hot and humid day here in the ATL. As the summer goes on it will only get hotter and more humid. An uneventful 3 pass BBS shave this morning. Everything worked well together. I hope everyone has a great Sunday.

    I think the ladies might have gotten me something from WSP for Father's Day. I saw a package come in and then it was gone. :)

    I would be using menthol soaps by now. Great shave Clint!

    Very nice, Clint. I know that Thater isn’t your favourite boar, but it certainly is a nice looking knot and handle.

    Check out the price of these, Clint. Also note the review results. I didn’t know Merkur had 59 shareholders in Canada...

    Looks like they still sell basically the same sampler I got 4 years ago. The Merkurs are almost half the price of the whole thing. Unbelievable.

    Awesome photo and report, Joseph! Sounds like the Platinums and the Fatip LSO worked phenomenally together. :D

    Super classy Sunday Sample shave, Jim! Stunning photo as always. Mahogany sounds like the perfect scent profile for a gentleman's den--stay classy, sir! :D
