    Good to hear you got bbs results, Eric. The one dot EndGem is fairly mild so you obviously had the right angle going on.

    CART # 25 -Sample Shave

    Final TSA shave unless Mother Nature has some other plans with the Nor’easter in the Metro NY area. The sample of the Van Yulay Citrus Basil has been binned.
    All three shaves this weekend were close and comfortable considering the use of the cart razor. The brush whipped up and slick but thinner lather which worked very well.

    Hope you have a great day gentlemen.

    Great shaves Joe! I am sure that you want to get back shaving with your straights and safeties.

    Nice way to close out (until next time) my Central Texas Soaps' Weekend Rodeo set. 2 passes. One cut, no Knicks. The cut was down at Cactus Nation. No real damage. Smoothness along the cheeks&sideburn areas. Same for both sides of Porcupine Alley. Much better (than in past shaves) along the jawline. A.S. felt good all over. Most Excellent.

    Straight Shave #335
    7/ 8 Henckels Friodur
    Heritage Collection C-Mon Replica Super HD Badger
    Stirling Spice SS and AS
    Maggard's Alum Block
    Dickinson's Witch Hazel
    Beard Growth: 36.5 hrs

    I wanted to have a nice setup to perk me up on this dreary Mon. morning.
    I frothed my soap and used the bloom water as a preshave. The Stirling Spice scent is wonderful. The lather was really wet and slick to make sure the razor moves easily on my face and neck. The Henckels gave my a wonderfully smooth and very close shave without any major incidents. Did get a speck weep. It was so tiny that it was laughable. Hey! I rather have a speck weep than a nasty cut on my face! I don't want to be known as Scarface! Finished the shave in my usual way. I am looking in the mirror and my face is glowing. Have a nice day!
