Thanks Joe!

 

Excellent shave Jason. Even better retort to the young whimper snapper’s comment.

 

Nice shave Paul.

The General, but It's not available ... or not at a fair price!!!

I Sir am too weak to ever commit to a No Buy . I have wasted more money on carts in my past and now I have no qualms about buying what I can afford to make me happy when shaving. I used to curse those disposable razors and cartridges but never saw the light until 3 years ago.

 

Perfect

 

Thanks.....Great review.

 

Seems you and @Dave in KY have a penchant for large quantities of the Brut . I applaud that gesture of helping a brother out.

 

Thank you, Danny! The Simpson is a welcomed addition.

Thank you, Jeff! You do the same.

 

Thanks Danny.

 

I'm behind as usual trying to keep up with the crowd. Searching for oversize Brut bottles can be time consuming .
Excellent shave reports gents !!

 

I hope you have good luck finding the Brut bottle.

 

That's a fair question, Andrew. I'm running a clean NB. By the rules, plain and simple. I share the same appreciation for rules as Deputy Barney Fife. If you know anything about how smoothly the Mayberry Jail operates, that should provide some indication of how my NB will work. Click on the link in my signature, and it will take you to the agreement I have with @jtspartan. Yep, I like to keep the agreement front and center. Cards remain on the table at all times in my hillbilly NB world.



As for those two other sod busters, whom I won't name because I try to stay above the fray...it's already starting to get ugly. There's been talk of Mulligans. I have no idea who the Mulligans are. I'm guessing it's a family of attorneys they have retained for NB contract renegotiations.

 

my name ain't Mulligan

 

Thank you Joe.....worked out real well. Back with same tomorrow and Wednesday(different brushes each day).

 

Tomorrow's plan....same as today, but for:

Brush-Stoylin 26mm "Pro-Handle".

 

Anyone ever noticed the same thing that I've seen in my experiences ? The people that talk real big usually end up falling short

 

Actually I picked it up at a flea mall a while back and figured some one on the crew would want it. I wished I lived closer to the border so I could throw it your way.

 

January 18th

Razor: 1906 Gillette Single Ring
Blade: Voskhod (2)
Brush: Rubberset 400
SS & AS: Stirling Executive Man

Had a wonderful noon shave today. The original Gillettes a very efficient. I'm sure glad I went gentle. Ended up with a great DFS 2 pass shave. I'm trying to finish off this tub of executive man. I have already purchased a refill puck but I want to clean the jar of all the old soap.




I was out in the shop at 7 AM making handles this morning. Looks like an insert will make about 10 handles before it needs replacing. I actually had the machine stale the insert was so dull. Thankfully the spindle feedback just stopped the machine, so the only down time was changing the insert.

Total machine time is about 20 min, but the video is at 4x. Trust me this makes it much more entertaining. The mister and vacuum are held in place with a twist tie and duct tape.

Sorry for the chatter in the video. Those lathe inserts are $3.75 each so I'm pushing them as far as I can.
