    Nice shave Jeff! I just hate it when the back of the head gets cut up. Last night I head shaved with the ShakeSharp using one blade and it was 3 passes for BBS shave. Have an awesome day!

    Excellent shave lineup, Jeff!
    I've been following along watching the Torqued by Tom threads (along with all of his other creations). I wish some of the razor companies had a bit of @twhite Tom's talent, ingenuity and creativity.

    Pleased with my shave this morning. I had the same "equipment" as yesterday. The usual one pass(for using canned foam). Well-done along the cheeks. I knocked off the area I missed yesterday(right jawline, just at the bottom of the sideburn section). No cuts or Knicks, thus Porcupine Alley was a success. Same with Cactus Nation down below(neck). The Osage Rub provided for a nice finish. I got to thinking though, during the shave, that I wish I could get a "foam-like" lather going as I use shave soaps. I'm not able to swirl the brush faster than those individuals I've seen in videos...I'm sure that is a reason. Just the right amount of water usage is another. I hereby proclaim this problem to be a "Mid-month Focus". But the Gillette Foamy/Osage combo did me just fine today: Top Of The World Excellent.

    Thank you Andrew....as I say, it helped energize me to focus better on soap shaves, but I think the Foamy Menthol is a fine match for Osage (course I'll use Osage with other foams and soaps too).

    Actually that was a nice song. Sometimes I think those PW ladies are better at discovering than Chris Columbus when he "did America".

    Beautiful brush, Pierpaolo. Does not look like a three-band.
