June 2020 30 Day Rule/Focus Pix & Discussion

Fantastic shave and report, Paul. Sorry to hear about the cut, but if you're going to get one, a small one is the way to go

 

Thanks, Tim! The Auto Strops are the embodiment of incremental improvement. The final model, the VC4, will easily stand against any modern artisan offering. Chel has been around about a year or so. I bought it probably 8 months ago and never used it! Great stuff, but very different from traditional menthol.

 

A very enjoyable hour getting to put faces with the names/avatars.

 

It’s easy, you can do everything on your phone! I send you a link and all you do is select it. Good morning!

 

Great shave and photography! I’ve never been a ‘slant’ guy! Glad it worked so well for you! Enjoy your day!

 

Nice shave, Joe. I have a sample of the MLS Reunion A/S and it smells great.

 

Thank you Tim. As you might guess, a "small cut" is smaller than your run-of-the-mill "weeper on steroids".

 

Thanks, Jim! I’ll stack it up against any of my modern artisan razors!

 

Beautiful photo and a fantastic report on your first Alpha Outlaw shave, Jim! The knurling really jumps out at you--it's like looking at thousands of miniature Mayan temples all lined up in a row. It sounds like it's going to be another fantastic shaver

 

Great photography, as usual, Jim! Are you one of the ones who took @Vlasta up on his initial offer? Sounds like a good razor!

 

Beautiful line up today, Mark! That brush/razor combo is awesome, and TDH is the perfect follow up for an Orange Chill shave and splash

 

Sounds like a great shave despite the nick!

 

Great shave report, Jeff! The AutoStrops are really great razors IMO. I'm glad you're enjoying the shaves you get from them. I may have to break out the Chel soon to give it another try.

 

Great shave, Chris! I enjoyed witnessing it last night! You certainly know your way around Open edge shaving!

Nice shave, Jim. And the razor looks outstanding.

 

We’re singing from the same hymnal, Andrew! I’d stack my VC4 up against any modern artisan shaver, and I have a few!

 

Fine looking shave, Mark. The Orange chill is one of my favorite soaps. I may need to add the a/s to the collection.

 

Gorgeous photo, but that razor knocks me out! You have a wonderful collection, Gary!
