    Wonderful shaves, gear and pic, Jeff! Shavimg with a 200 yr old razor has got to be a kick, especially when there was a possibiity that the famous author actually held it in his hand.

    Nice shave Paul. I think you would have better success if you just put a dime-sized portion on the tip of your brush and face lather it with a wet face. You use more soap than necessary when you swirl the brush on a cream tub.

    Thanks, Joe, although the probability that he ever held it in his hand would be pretty low. Edgar and his stepfather never really saw things eye to eye. Edgar was a bit of a playboy, and a very poor student at University of Va. which greatly disappointed Jonathan! He preferred gambling his stepfather’s money, running up large debts, and not going to class, a formula for a not exactly copacetic re’ship with stepdad! :)
