  1. Fine shave Clint. Sometimes it is best to let the baby stay asleep.

  6. Nice shave, pic and post, Maestro! I found the Polsilver blades pretty sharp and smooth when I used them in my Dovo shavette. Alas, different beard and skin types will react to the same blade differently.

  7. Thanks so much Perry!

    Enablititus Terrinitis vaccine? Nah....I'll be letting everyone cut in line in front of me for that one. :happy108:

    Thanks Joseph!

    Sincerely appreciate the kind words Jeff!

    Thank you so much Joe!

    :signs001: so much Danny!

    Thank you Gary!

    Thanks Terry! I'll settle for being Obi-Wan. Wifey has a crush on him and that kind of works to my advantage.

  8. Very nice shave Paul! Unbeknownst to you, it was a great reference to the Pony Express.

  10. Wonderful shave and a very structured post, Blair. I found it incredible that you had some trepidation with the razor because you use a straight razor!

  11. Thanks Joe. The slight trepidation was from a very different set down angle & pressure....from a very different grip angle. The Enoch is also a pretty hefty tool. Not to mention a spanking new SE P-30 sized blade.. Trepidation pretty well gone after the 2nd/3rd swipe.

  15. While I agree in principle, Joe, I do believe there are distinct differences between the 4 iterations.

  17. I figured I would post some picture before I wrap it up. Yes it arrived today. When I went to open up the big bottle that holds the bottle of aftershave and cologne, I just got hit was that classic shulton, there's just something about it when it lingers in your nose. the first picture on top that you see is a coupon that states that the expiration date goes back to 1971. both of these bottles are full and have not been used since the day they were filled. Personally I think this is the coolest vintage OS gift set made, it just looks very neat. I can only imagine what it was like to receive these as a Sailor,Soldier,Marine or Airman, in a care package during the Vietnam Conflict. It probably lit every guy's face up. anyway I'm sure my uncle will enjoy this. IMG_20201210_164037.jpg IMG_20201210_164154.jpg IMG_20201210_164441.jpg
  18. Wonderful shave Evan! After 2 shaves with the Christmas Eve soap and aftershave, I am hitting the Bay Rum on my next shave.
