    Shave 10/30. I got a tiny weeper, but apart from that the shave was great. I always seem to enjoy shaving more when I skip a day.

    Have a great day, gentlemen!
  5. Thank you Daniel. It is a custom razor that was made by well known razor maker Max Sprecher. I bought it for my 65th birthday almost 2 years ago. It is my showcase piece.

  6. Fine shave Daniel. I like shaving with a day and a half to 2 days growth.

  7. Survival day for me here(for most of the day)...water main broke nearby-all water is shut off around the complex. No shower, no shave until it's fixed.:-((
  8. Thanks, Joe!
    I hope they get it fixed soon.

  9. Wow! That's a shame! If you had a gym to go to then you could have taken a shower and shave there. This too shall pass Paul. I guess you can take some bodywash and your shave gear to a fast food joint to take care of business.

  10. no nicks or cuts..;)..evening shave perhaps..:):eatdrink047:
  11. I just might. It'll be like retuning from the hospital-immediate shower and shave upon return(around 5 PM), then a normal S&S the next morning.

  12. Didn't do that, but was able to use the "Oval Office"(bathroom)in the library. I put on some deodorant(sans soap)and found a way to brush my teeth before heading out. You're right about the gym, though.

    DE Shave # 389

    Rating: 5 / 5

    Razor: Fatip Grande Open Comb
    Blade: Gillette Silver Blue
    Brush: Brent Jacobson Tamarind and Ebony w/ Paragon 24mm boar
    Lather: WTF Vintage Barbershop
    Aftershave: WTF Vintage Barbershop
    Additional Care:
    Stirling Alum Block

    Gorgeous day here on LI with mid Spring like temperatures with clear blue skies. Unfortunately, I have not had much opportunity to enjoy it as I am inside painting again.

    No worries as this morning’s shave was an uplifting experience. Three passes with the Fatip razor and a phenomenal lather whipped up by the Jacobson boar brush resulted in a close and comfortable shave.
