June 2021 30-Day Rule/Focus Pix and Discussion

Very nice shave Jim! Some blades work well for some and not for others. Enjoy your day!

 

Jim thanks for watching the video and great shave today yourself there. I never really cared for Bolzano blades either and I never have issues with having to have certain blades for certain razors. I just use the blades that work for me and never understood the hype around those. Have a great day!

 

Thanks, Joe!

Simply stunning Jim. Life is too short. Throw those blades away

 

Thanks Joe....Finally, the middle of the Razorock Lime Burst is "sinking" a bit.

 

Thank you Andrew! Not trying to compete, just fortunate to have found some vintage stuff that I like. I hope you have a great day !

Great shave Clint and have a great hump day !

 

It was a great shave. Thanks!

I rarely watch shaving related videos anymore except for the ones shared by the 30DC. I really appreciate the time and effort involved. You also have some very interesting gear that I probably wouldn't see otherwise. Thanks again for sharing.

Thanks, Clint.
I'll probably keep the blades around and revisit them on occasion.

Thank you Dave.

 

Hahaha. I need a pair of those for working in. Thank you for the kind words Charlie . I love being a part of this group.

 

I hear ya Bill. It seems like cheap steel but was worth trying to put an edge on it. My brother has a similar type sharpener for his hunting knives . Hmmmmm

 

I just messaged Jason @jtspartan
He won the No Buy wager.

Dixie Master Barber straight razor
Soap Commander Honor shave soap
Simpson T3 Trafalgar brush
Royal Copenhagen cologne

Awesome lather this morning. The T3 and Soap Commander came together for some thick goo.

I worked on the Dixie last night and it did feel a little sharper this morning but not where it needs to be. I completed one and a half passes and was just not feeling it. My mind was not where it needed to be and I was feeling rushed to get out the door for work. I put the straight down and finished the shave with a Feather in the Colibri. Overall a very nice shave and the alum was quite.

A little witch hazel and Royal Copenhagen and this one was done.

Happy Wednesday everyone.

 

What did you buy?

 

Jim my Man, you have my utmost respect for holding out as long as you have. We need pics of what was the tipping point item. And pics of what Jason is getting

 

Nice shave Danny ! What are you honing with? I may get a cheap synthetic set to play with these SE Wedge Blades.

 

I just ordered a 2021 Rocnel Sailor. It is just so pretty I couldn't resist. I'm excited to get it as I've wanted one since the 2019 version but I'm ashamed at the same time. I feel like I've let my fellow No Buyers down.

That will definitely push one over the edge.

Congratulations Jim and Jason.
