February 2021 30 Day Rule/30 Day Focus Pic and Discussion Thread- All are Welcome

Thanks, Bill!

Thank you, Patrick!
I grill through the winter myself but it's been cold enough the propane won't flash off to gas very efficiently, I just end up with a low weak flame.

Thanks, Clint!

Good resolve on the Fatip and glad you got the heater fixed in the truck. Plowing without a heater has to be miserable.

 

Great first shave with the Blackbird, Dave! My first DE when I started traditional wetshaving was a Blackbird OC whitch takes it up a notch from the safety bar version. Man I made a mess of myself. Weepers, nicks, razorburn, the newbie trifecta. My wife looked at me like I was nuts. I think I was still bleeding when I got on Amazon and ordered an EJDE89 and a styptic pencil.

Awesome shave and picture. Clint let me borrow his brass bird for a while. I really enjoyed the efficient shaves but for some reason the razor just did not "speak" to me. They are beautiful and solid made razors. Stay warm.

 

Positive comment from SWMBO......way to go Clint! Awesome shave and picture. Stay warm and take care.

 

Thanks Clint. I think the new cell phone I got back in September made a big difference. Hope y'all are warm up over there today.

 

Thanks Dave. I don't know what you make washing windows in 20 degree weather but it ain't enough. Take care.

 

Very nice, Jason. When you get a chance, I would love to see a picture of the Cooper w/blade, fully closed from the side. Full frontal, cap at top, etc.
Thanks.

 

Marvelous Monobilt shave Jason.

 

Beautiful knot, Pierpaolo.

 

Beautiful Timeless shave Pierpaolo!

 

Very nice shave Dave! I like the design of the razor because it has clean lines. Have a great day!

 

Veddy nice Clint. Enjoy your day!

 

Very nice shave Danny! You guys have had an unusually cold winter. Stay warm and safe!

 

February Focus

Mike's Vetiver~~Simpson CH3~~Dovo x2~~Cremo Leather and Oud
Good morning TSD and greetings from 10˚ (F) Midwest.
Yesterday, 8" of snow to move with plenty o' drifting to make it more interesting.
Today...just cold.
I shaved with two Dovo razors today, just because.
I haven't reached for the Mike's Vetiver in a while and that was evident by the puck spinning whilst loading.

Not to be defeated, I maintained my composure and filled the Best Badger knot with what can only be called:
OUTSTANDING LATHER.

Look at this goo. Go ahead, I'll wait.

Shaved the left side of my face with the 6/8 and the right with the 5/8 (I think it's a 5/8)
This razor has been on loan to me from our friend Bill a.k.a. @Edison Carter
He has really found his niche and it's such a joy to watch his videos.
Congratulations, Bill.
Both razors sported very keen edges and had no issues wiping away the 24 hour stubble.
Both sides of my face feel almost exactly the same.
I did get two weepers on the left side of my neck (6/8), however, I am going to
chalk them up to user error, as I was "experimenting" with a different grip.
Otherwise, great shave with the typical, Primo results:
BBS/DFS+++
Thank you Bill, for allowing me to use this very nice razor.
FOTD© is the future son-in-law reject, Cremo Leather and Oud.

Reviewers call this juice: The Poor Man's Tom Ford Tuscan Leather.
IMO, it performs well above its price point.​

 

Great shave Jason! I still haven't used my new Fine Platinum SS and AS because the scent is hardly there. I have had the same problem with their Italian Citrus. It is a shame because the Italian Citrus produces a nice slick lather.

 

As dedicated no-buyers, @jluc, @b1hart, and I don't run into these kinds of problems. We're too busy shoveling snow anyway.

 

Thanks Joe. The weather has been unusually cold and I'm ready for it to be over. Take care.

 

Thanks Danny
