    I as sure I will adjust to the new “lifestyle”. I will have an additional challenge as my shoulder surgery is scheduled for September 15th.
    Please forward the author and title of the book series you are referring to.

    Lovely tribute shave, Joe! It’s nice to remember our forbears! My grandfather used to wear a lot of the Veg! I loved him, but he really went overboard in its application.

    Will do, Joe! It’ll pray for a rapid and pain-free recovery. Unfortunately, health issues become more prevalent as we spend more time in the club! ;)

    Thank you Jeff. I am hoping this is the only health issue for a long time.

    Razorock Jaws 0.84 on a Weber bulldog handle.
    Voskhod blade (fresh)
    Razorock 400 synthetic brush
    Fine Accoutrements Snake Bite soap (old formula)
    Royal Copenhagen cologne

    It has been a busy weekend and no shaves for the last two days. I figured Jaws needed to come out and play.

    Awesome Fine lather this morning.

    I completed three beautiful passes with just a hint of alum. I had forgot what a great shaver the Jaws is. It took care of two days growth with no problems. The Gamechanger is an excellent value in the stainless steel razor market.

    I hope everyone is doing great and happy Monday everone!

    I had a great 2.5 pass shave. Did get a small nick under the chin because I landed the blade too quickly and nonchalantly. Anyway, it was a BBS shave. Did my normal postshave routine. Did a headshave with the Shakesharp and this software as well. Three passes for cueball smooth dome without any errors. Finished the headshave in the same manner. Have a nice day.

    Down to the wire with the 195. Stayed with "5". Not sure why...
    The Gillette Platinum blade, on day two, performed admirably.

    Hope everyone has a great day.
