    As you know I’m pretty selective about my soaps, but I do like A&E Kaizen. :)

    I know he will and hopefully Mittens will be home tomorrow. They remind me of these two.

    Y'know, speaking of suspension, I'm annoyed by a squeaking sound in my car as I steer the wheels. Nothing is showing on my dashboard(like a warnning)but I'm calling it in anyway-steering fluid must be low(is my guess). Back to my shave-yes, I adjusted it :).

    Garfield is a great analogy, Danny! Mitten does periodically get frustrated with Gromit’s failure to understand why his rubber chicken isn’t of interest to Mitten. It’ll be good to get him home tomorrow. :)

    April 14 SOTE

    Good evening guys!

    20210410_204029.jpg

    Rockwell Model T (6)
    Feather Hi Stainless DE Blade (3)
    Semogue OC Super Badger Brush
    Stirling Spice SS and AS
    Dickenson's WH and Nivea ASB
    Whiskers: 35.5 hrs

    This is the third shave of the Rockwell focus for the week. I am liking the Semogue brush more since I changed my lathering technique with it. I have kept the brush a little more damp than usual and adding more water to the tips while swirling the brush to overload it with soap. Now I have enough soap to lather my face even if the this brush hogs lather. Did 2 passes with buffing to get a BBS shave that would almost pass the cotton ball test. There weren't any issues of blood or irritation. Finished with my normal postshave regimen. I did feel some burn, but I expected it because this was an extremely close shave. What surprised me was the blade still has some bite to it that I am going to use it on my 4th shave on Friday. I am usually 3 and out with a Feather blade, but it may be the geometry of the Model T that helps extends the blade life. I have to say that tonight's shave was the best that I have had from my Model T. Good night gents!
