    Awesome shaves guys. The Colibri is a sweet razor.

    Real happy with my shave this morning. 0:40 to load the Razorock onto the Crown King. The Razorock soap isn't "thirsty", thus it was rather easy and fun to load. Not like my other Razorock, which is 3x-milled. Again I thought one pass was enough, but this time I went with the second. Course, I mostly do 2-pass shaves with soaps, as we know. Cheeks and sideburn areas were the easiest, as always has been the case. Slow&steady up N. Porcupine Alley, especially the edges. South looks good(Porcupine). The same with Cactus Nation(neck). No cuts or Knicks. Outta This World Excellent.

    Lovely shave, Barry! I just love Cella Red! In fact, I need to use Cella this week.

    That one was also a favorite of Mr. Cawtuh. I wonder how he is these days.

    Wonderful Cella/ Old Spice shave Barry. The witch hazel concoction sounds very nice.

    We had the LI 30 DC monthly meeting this morning. It was a great breakfast and fellowship with Joe C.

    Joe, @Trigger, and I had a very nice time chatting and enjoying a not so healthy breakfast this morning. Once again the 2 + hours flew by. As always we discussed many different topics. More importantly, it is good to see that Joe is feeling much better as he is recovering from his bout with the flu.

    Wonderful Tobacco Tuesday shave with the PAA Malbolge. I had a relatively close shave, although not as close as I would have preferred with the W & B razor. I will make sure I refresh it in the near future. Regardless, I am smelling good.

    Hope you all have a great day gentlemen.

    Rocking shave Paul. Pun intended.

    Intend that baby, Joe :). The real test for me will be to see how my brush-swirling(which I think is improving)will deal with 3x-milled soaps.

    Wonderful shave, setup and pic Joe! It really was a great session this morning. Although I was still slightly unsteady, having breakfast with you made me more energized. I thank you for it.

    Thank you joe. Both of the bos sets are very nice, I can’t decide a fav between them.
